Recently Ola admitted that she still feels ‘self-conscious’ in a bikini despite dropping from a size 14 to an 8 in just four months.
The professional dancer told MailOnline she has accepted that her body ‘is never going to be the same as it was on Strictly’ after her breasts and tummy changed following the birth of her daughter Ella, who is now aged three.
Ola and husband James lost a combined weight of 6.5 stone last year after they confessed to piling on the pounds in the pandemic and struggling with the motivation to dance.
With the help of their fitness website Dance Shred, they overhauled their lives and Ola said she felt like she had ‘lost a whole person’ after slimming down.
But the former Strictly professional, who starred on the show from 2006 until 2015, admitted that while the bikinis she wears are smaller in size, she still suffers with her body confidence.
She said: ‘Even though I have lost all my weight I still feel self-conscious in a bikini.
‘Even though it’s a smaller size bikini and I do feel good I’m not bursting with confidence. I’m not a confident person generally so I’m still aware.’
She continued: ‘My body is never going to be the same as it was on Strictly because my stomach looks different, my boobs like different, things change.

‘It isn’t about looking perfect but feeling healthier and fitter. I’m still a size 8, I’m there… but I find summer difficult because of BBQs and Pimm’s, Prosecco, I find it harder than Christmas let’s say but when I’m at home I do cook healthier.’
The mother-of-one, said the temptation to show off her trim figure often means she ends up socialising, which can be counterproductive for her diet.
She said: ‘Seeing my new body, I want to go out and dress out more but that means eating in restaurants and enjoying alcohol here and there.
‘But I want to enjoy say an ice cream with my daughter. I don’t want to be the mummy not having ice cream, I want to have it with her.
‘I want to show her that I still eat and enjoy myself. It’s about finding the right balance.’
Ola isn’t alone in her insecurities, with husband James admitting he also has his hang ups.

The former Dancing On Ice champion said he’s conscious about losing his hair but is unconvinced a transplant is the answer.
He said: ‘Like for me it’s my hair, I am very conscious of the fact I’m losing my hair.
‘Everyone has something that will bother them and that’s part of life. Getting older is another thing.
‘I have been offered hair transplants by so many different people but I’m a bit of a scaredy cat.’
