Joe shows he's Strictly caring

Hardman Joe Calzaghe has shown his softer side after revealing he nursed his Strictly Come Dancing lover through a health scare.

The Welsh former World Champion boxer helped Russian dancer Kristina Rihanoff cope with an operation to remove a benign ovarian cyst.

She said: "Joe was just there for me. He took me to the hospital, brought me back to Wales, was around me 24/7 - and that's when I was just taken so deeply by how caring he is."

Calzaghe, who has two sons with his ex-wife Mandy, praised his new partner: "Kristina is gorgeous, really sensitive, loving."
