\n\t\t\"Vicky\t<\/div>
Last week, Vicky and Kai got rave reviews from the judges for their foxtrot (Picture: Guy Levy\/BBC\/PA Wire)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Vicky Pattison broke my heart on Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> last Saturday.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old former Geordie Shore<\/a> star and her partner Kai Widdrington<\/a> floated effortlessly across the dance floor to Sam Fender\u2019s Rein Me In. I thought it was seamless \u2013 and suddenly, she\u2019s become a real contender to win.<\/p>\n

After rave reviews from the judges and being told she \u2018could actually probably, maybe, possibly go all the way\u2019 by Shirley Ballas<\/a>, Vicky was in tears.<\/p>\n

But my heart sank when she later said to Claudia Winkleman<\/a>: \u2018I haven\u2019t really done an awful lot of stuff to make the North East proud, especially at the start of my career, so it feels really nice to be able to turn a corner on Strictly<\/a> and have all my family and friends watch us and maybe make them proud.\u2019<\/p>\n

There will be large swathes of Strictly Come Dancing viewers who know little about this Newcastle<\/a> darling. <\/p>\n

Many older Strictly fans in particular won\u2019t have even heard of Geordie Shore, the MTV reality show that thrived on its young cast getting \u2018absolutely mortal\u2019 on camera, then waking up with regret in front of its gripped audience.<\/p>\n
