Kym Marsh plants a kiss on Helen Skelton at VERY boozy Strictly Christmas party trends now
She's just recovered from her 'scary' battle with Covid.
So Kym Marsh ensured she let her hair down with her Strictly Come Dancing stars at their Christmas party in London on Thursday.
The 46-year-old actress seemed in high spirits as she enjoyed a glass of red wine after returning to their hotel to keep boozing with Helen Skelton and Fleur East after spending a week in isolation.

Fleur also took advantage of the free bar, enjoying a glass of red while clad in a sports bra and leggings.
The Christmas party comes ahead of the quarter-finals for Strictly, which will air on Friday night after rescheduling for the World Cup.
Kym will no doubt be pleased to get back on the dancefloor after she was forced to miss last week's show when she contracted Covid.

The former Corrie actress, who returned to training this week, joked she had 'swapped sequins for tissues' during her appearance on Thursday's It Takes Two.
She told host Janette Manrara: '[Watching from home] was so weird, I had such FOMO (fear of missing out), I swapped sequins for tissues'.
'I watched it with two tissues stuck up my nostrils.'
Her dance partner Graziano Di Prima added: 'She called me sick from bed and I told her 'later...later'.
The duo went on to reveal they will be dancing the Cha Cha Cha to Irene Cara's hit song Fame during Saturday's musicals week.
