Mark Wright has revealed that the rehearsals for 'Strictly Come Dancing' are making him too "tired" to be intimate with his fiancée, Michelle Keegan.

The 27-year-old finalist has revealed that the BBC One dancing show has left him "tired all the time" or in pain, meaning he has no energy to be intimate with his fiancée, ex 'Coronation Street' star, Michelle Keegan.

He told the Metro newspaper's Guilty Pleasures column: "I've not been waltzing around the bedroom. I sleep really good at the moment because I am tired all the time. And in pain!

"Since 'Strictly', every time I twist my back I hear ten cracks. That never used to happen. My ankles, my groin - everything is hurting in every place."

Meanwhile, the former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star - who is expected to wed his beau, 27, sometime next year - recently revealed that he "really misses" her and is looking forward to the pair spending more time together at Christmas.

He said previously: "About three weeks ago I'd been really missing her and she'd been really missing me.

"I sent her 27 roses and I said on the card, 'Here's 27 roses - this is how many days it's going to be until we're together'.

"This weekend she has a break, which means we can be together every day until Christmas and a little bit after - I just cannot wait."

Mark also admitted that he had received a lot of support from Michelle, even when she couldn't be at the studios to see him dance.

He said: "In the week when I did the samba, when my scores went right up and I was third on the leader board, I got a great text from her.

"She was watching at her mum's house and the message just said: 'Wow! That was great - Hot, hot hot!'."

Mark will fight for the 'Strictly Come Dancing' crown this Saturday (20.12.14) and Sunday (21.12.14) against Caroline Flack, Frankie Bridge and Simon Webbe.
