STRICTLY star Kelvin Fletcher stripped down to his pants today to show viewers the horrific injuries he's sustained in dance training.

However, the 35-year-old actor got no sympathy from partner Oti Mabuse, who told him: "Don't be a queen about it."

Former Emmerdale favourite Kelvin shared a selfie of his legs covered in painful-looking red blotchy bruises.

He remarked: "Rugby? No. Paintball? No. Dancing? Yes. ๐Ÿ™Š๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜ฉ."

But seconds later Oti commented: "Donโ€™t be a queen about it... ๐Ÿ™„ get dressed and letโ€™s go dance ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿพ."

Yesterday, Kelvin horrified pal Mark Wright with his injuries after they worked out together at the gym.

The former Towie star was left gasping: "Oh my God, what's happened there?"

Mark, 32, shared a video where he told followers: "Look who's here, lubing up. He's still in the competition.

"Kelvin Fletcher - he's got my vote all day long. Look at the bruises on the guy."

Then, lapsing into a cheeky bit of Cockney rhyming slang, he added: "That's your Hampton isn't it, it's swinging across both thighs."

Kelvin and Oti are performing the couple's choice dance of street/commercial tonight to Do I Love You (Indeed I Do) by Frank Wilson.

The pair remain far-away favourites to take the Glitterball Trophy this series.

Emma Barton, Karim Zeroual and Alex Scott are trailing in their wake, according to odds setters.
