Vicky said she was ‘struggling’ to put into words how she is feeling and how much the process meant to her as she added: “It has been one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life and I don’t think I’ll ever top it! To my @kaiwidd I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart- the absolute BEST partner a girl could ask for.. and even more than that, a friend”.
While the eliminated celebs normally appear on It Takes Two on the Monday following their exit, Vicky explained that she will be on the show a few days later instead.
Vicky wrote: “We’ll be on It Takes Two on Wednesday to chat about our gorgeous journey, so sorry to anyone expecting to see us tonight… I’ve been celebrating my birthday in style. But we’ll see you then and we’re so excited… although I will definitely cry”.
She concluded the post with: “Final Thankyou to you guys, for your support and kindness.. I am so grateful to you all! You made a little girls dreams come true and I loved my time spent on that dance floor!”.
A source also confirmed to The Mirror that Vicky’s absence was due to her celebrating her birthday and that she had permission fro the BBC to appear on the show on Wednesday instead.
They said: “Vicky had it pre-agreed that she was going to celebrate her birthday with some friends and family. She has hardly seen them the last few months cos of training so it was a wonderful celebration, but nothing too crazy.
“The BBC gave her permission to have the time around her birthday off, and so she will be appearing on It Takes Two on Wednesday.”
Over the weekend, the former Loose Women star shared a video clip from her birthday party – which she hosted as her elimination scenes went to air. The post includes a message from a friend that reads, ‘You are so special, never change. Love you.”
