Kym and Graziano clearly have a strong friendship which can be seen through their incredible dancing skills and chemistry when they perform together.
She recently spoke to OK! Magazine about her dance partner and admitted that she would love for him to be part of the Marsh family.
Kym explained: “He’s very quickly become like a little brother to me. Graziano is from a big family himself and is very family orientated, so it was important for us to build a friendship and I wanted to integrate him in the family. He’s fit in really well. Everyone loves him.”
Graziano also commented on their friendship and gushed over the singer’s family unit.
He added: “I feel like part of the family. Every week there is a day where Kym invites me home with her, the family prepare Italian food and make me feel so welcome. At the end of the day when we’ve finished rehearsals, I’ll be in my hotel on my own, but Kym knows that. So she invites me back.”
The former Hear’Say singer continued to speak about her family and admitted that her daughter Polly admires her for taking part in the show.
According to Kym, the 11-year-old often considers her “embarrassing” due to her fame.
She said: “Usually, I’m quite embarrassing to her. She’s like: ‘Oh my God, I can’t believe everyone knows who my mum is. So embarrassing’. But now, I’ve become more interesting, I’ve been getting more messages from Polly now going: ‘Good luck, Mum. I hope you’re doing well’.”
The singer said that she thinks the reason why she is receiving these messages is because “all her friends are talking about her” and “about Strictly Come Dancing” while they’re at school.
Along with Polly, Kym also has her 27-year-old son David and her 24-year-old daughter Emilie.
