Aoibhin Garrihy opens up on the Strictly curse

Aoibhin Garrihy has opened up on the Strictly curse.

The Fair City actress is one of the celebrities taking part in RTE’s Dancing With The Stars – however, she’s not worried about it affecting her marriage

“Not at all, my husband is very supportive and well used to it at this stage,” Aoibhinn said.

The TV star explained that dancing is like acting – it’s part of the job.

“I’m an actor so it’s part of the job,” she told the Irish Daily Mail.

Aoibhin admitted that her partner Vitali’s wife Valeria Milova is also supportive of their pairing – so much so that she gives them advice despite the fact she’s in competition with them as she dances with GAA star Aidan O’Mahony.

“Valeria is there helping up and filming us during rehearsals. Then when it comes to the girl’s steps she’s helping me as well.

“It’s great to have that added bonus, where you get two partners for the price of one.”

Benefit: The actress revealed that dancing will help further her career | RTE

Aoibhin also explained that she thinks taking part in the show will help benefit her career in the long run.

“For me it’s about learning another art form. I get calls from my agent’s office and they want to know if I can horse ride or swim or speak Irish.

“‘Can you dance?’ is one that has been cropping up more and more in recent years so it’s great that now I can answer back that I can rumba and cha-cha and jive.

“I’m definitely going to keep it up after,” she added.
