Strictly's Nigel Harman's famous wife has epic reaction to his sex symbol status
Actor Nigel Harman has been making waves on Strictly Come Dancing, not just with his impressive dance moves but also with his sex appeal. The former EastEnders star has become quite the heartthrob with judge Motsi Mabuse even comparing him to the late Patrick Swayze.
Nigel and his professional dance partner, Katya Jones, have been setting the dance floor on fire since the beginning of the competition. However, Nigel and Katya faced some tough criticism from head judge Shirley Ballas during Strictly's Halloween special. Their Cha Cha to Kiss's "I Was Made For Lovin' You" was not up to Shirley's standards, with too many mistakes and a lack of synchronisation. Despite this, the couple still managed to earn 30 points for their performance.
Nigel, a well-known actor who played the role of Dennis Rickman on the BBC's EastEnders between 2003 and 2005, is no stranger to attention. He has been receiving more attention online lately and has been once again referred to as a heartthrob. Interestingly, his wife, Hollywood actress Lucy Liemann, is not bothered by the renewed attention on her husband.

Lucy and the couple's daughter watch the duo perform every Wednesday after school and offer help to help him get through the gruelling training regime. "She's basically kitting me out with that I need to survive," Nigel told the publication. "Plus occasionally, if she's making a packed lunch for my daughter, she'll go, 'Would you like me to make you one?' So sometimes I have a packed lunch made for me." He shared that Lucy's care has been "really touching" and "beautiful".
The couple wed 12 years ago and Lucy is a successful actor just like her husband. She has starred in popular TV shows such as The Bill, The IT Crowd, Midsomer Murders, Agatha Raisin, Moving Wallpaper and Reggie Perrin. However, she is probably best known for her role as Lucy in the third part of the Jason Bourne film series, The Bourne Ultimatum.

Even though his daughter, who is believed to be around 11 years old, is too young to watch from the studio she has been proudly cheering on from home.
Nigel's professional partner Katya explained that his daughter couldn't be prouder of her dad. She said: "I will tell you her little face – she was so proud! That's all that matters, isn't it, at the end of the day." It's not only Nigel's family that has been cheering him on the dancefloor, as a Harry Potter star was spotted showing their support.

The 81-year-old actor – who also played Walder Frey in the HBO series Game of Thrones and Ray Johnson in the Netflix series After Life - looked thrilled to be in the crowd as he watched Nigel perform a Foxtrot.

For those who were left wondering how David and Nigel know each other, one clarified online, writing: "David Bradley and Nigel Harman in The Caretaker together at the Crucible in 2006 of course."
