Darren Kennedy has revealed that he has suffered a slight injury after he put a hole through a gym wall during his Dancing with the Stars rehearsals.
The presenter was training with his dance partner, Karen Byrne, when he kicked through a wall in the gym.
“I’m doing a jive this week and it’s all about kicks. Karen told me I wasn’t kicking hard enough so I did, right through the wall,” he told The Sun.
The 35-year-old admitted that he was left with a slight injury after the incident, but it his ankle feels better now: “I landed on my foot which was stinging for a while. All I have now is a bit of tenderness around the ankles.”
“We collapsed in laughter straight after but I haven’t spoken to the gym yet about the damage. But I know they’ll be understanding as they’re very supportive of me doing Dancing With The Stars.”
Darren scored sixteen points for his debut dance at the start of the month and while no dancers have been voted out of the competition yet, the first elimination will be on RTÉ One tonight.
