Jo Wood signed up to 'Strictly Come Dancing' to tone up her bottom.

The former model - who has been paired up with lothario Brendan Cole for the BBC ballroom dancing series - says she is looking forward to training hard with her 33-year-old partner to tighten her buttocks.

She said: "I could do with toning up around the bum. I'm a size 10. I don't want to be any smaller but I'd like to get a bit firmer from the waist down."

I could do with toning up around the bum. I'm a size 10. I don't want to be any smaller but I'd like to get a bit firmer from the waist down.

The 54-year-old grandmother has remained single since she split from her estranged husband, Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, last year when he left her for Russian former waitress Ekaterina Ivanova.

Jo is, however, enjoying the single life and the opportunity to try different things.

She explained: "I'm trying to do something different. I wouldn't be doing this if I was still with Ronnie. Now I'm doing things with my life I never dreamed of doing.

"I took 'Strictly Come Dancing' on as a challenge, really. That and the fact I love dancing. For me to be able to learn how to dance is like a dream come true. I want my kids to be proud of me. I'm saying, 'Yeah, this is me.' I'm coming out.

"Do I think I can win? I'd like to think I can. And I'm going to try my hardest!"
