Janette Manrara: ‘I knew that there was something wrong’

Janette Manrara joined the cast of Strictly Come Dancing in 2013 but was voted out in Week 4.

She spoke to 5 Live’s Naga Munchetty about her feelings of inadequacy after her first series on the show ended, and how she built herself up again.

She said: “I wasn’t being… I was putting face on in my personal life, with my friends, with my family. I knew that I just wasn’t happy. I knew that there was something wrong.â€

“Our internal dialogue is so crucial for survival. And changing the internal dialect was what made me come back the second year and really have a different perspective towards the whole thing.â€
