Just when we thought we knew everything about Strictly’s Thomas Skinner, it looks like there may be a few more skeletons in his closet.

Thomas, who is best known for taking part in The Apprentice in 2019, is set to take part in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing, which gets underway this Saturday on BBC One at 6.40 pm.

However, earlier this month, Thomas admitted to having an affair just a few weeks after his wedding to Sinéad in May 2022.

According to The Daily Mail, Thomas had been friends with Amy-Lucy, an aesthetician, but this soon progressed into an affair with the reality TV star.

Thomas came clean this month about his infidelity and revealed that the affair only lasted two weeks, but once Amy-Lucy heard this, she decided to give her side.

Speaking exclusively to the publication, she said ‘Thomas told me I was the love of his life and sold me an absolute dream. He told me he was in a loveless relationship of convenience.’

And Amy-Lucy didn’t hold back, telling them how ‘Thomas told me I was the love of his life and sold me an absolute dream,…he made me believe we were in love and that we were perfect for each other.’

Oh, and the other detail she added was that their love affair was three months and not just two weeks!

Taking to his social media, Thomas has tried to apologise to his wife and family, as well as those he hurt, but he also gave readers the impression that there may be more secrets that could come to light.

The star highlighted that ‘My life ain’t perfect… far from it. I’ve made big mistakes, I’ve let people down, and done things I’ll always regret in my past. The worst was what I did to my wife three and a half years ago… one stupid moment I’ll carry forever.’

‘It was nothing more and nothing less, despite what is being said. I told her straight away. She had every right to leave me back then, but she forgave me…….and that forgiveness changed my life.’

He continued his message by stating that since his revelation, he has become ‘public enemy number one,’ and that much of what has been said, since telling his own truth, is just lies.

While Thomas apologised profusely, a section of his message did raise a few eyebrows when it said ‘Ive got an extremely chequered past… more than most. I’ve never shied away from that. I’ve made mistakes, and if you dig you’ll find more. But here’s the truth: most people have made mistakes. It’s okay to own up to them, it’s okay to talk about them, and people do deserve second chances.’

With the show kicking off this weekend, Thomas will have to work hard to win the crowd over.
