Dancing’s most recognised professional dancers has announced that he and his family are moving to Mallorca ­ in a tent.

New Zealand ­ born Brendan Cole has revealed that he and his wife Zoe, along with their two children, are starting up a new life in Mallorca after leaving the UK, according to British media reports.

The 47­year­old LatinAmerican specialist will fulfil a lifelong dream to refurbish his house on the island, but admits that he will sleep in a tent until its completion.

Cole appeared in 15 series of the popular celebrity dance programme, partnered by such well­known stars as Anastacia, Sophie EllisBextor, Victoria Pendleton, Fiona Phillips, Lisa Snowdon, Kelly Brook and Lulu.

He married his wife Zoe Hobbs in 2010. Their first child, daughter Aurelia, was born on Christmas Day 2012, and in March 2018 they welcomed their son Danté into the world.
