The 20-year-old model/actor - who is the son of the late Jade Goody and TV presenter Jeff Brazier - is one of the famous faces taking part in the new series of the hit BBC One talent show but a new report suggests he's been encouraged to focus on his dancing and not get distracted so he can make the most of the career-boosting opportunity.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "He is a very determined young man with a naturally competitive spirit - both qualities which he’ll need to progress on 'Strictly'.

"But he has to remain focused because, as Strictly has proved in the past, it’s very easy for competitors to have their head turned. His nearest and dearest just don’t want to see him unintentionally waste the chance of a lifetime by temptations on the show."

As well as enjoying a successful modelling career, Bobby also branched out into acting with a role in BBC soap 'EastEnders' and his dad Jeff has insisted he is very proud of his son's achievements.

He told The Mirror newspaper: "I'm really proud of Bobby and the attitude he has had since he's been on 'EastEnders'. He's wanted to absorb as much from all the incredibly experienced actors around him. He's made a really good start to his career, and I can see he's proud of himself, too. I can see every time I switch it on that he's got better. Every time I watch it I can see he's better in the terms of the layers. I'm no acting expert, I can't say how good he is, but I'm really proud of my son. He's had an opportunity and he's taken it."
