Sex secrets of new Strictly star Hayley Holt

THIS is the blonde babe who is sexing up Strictly Come Dancing.

New Zealander Hayley Holt adds to the sexiest Strictly line up ever - with stars Rachel Stevens and Lisa Snowdon also in the mix.

Voted New Zealand's sexiest woman in 2007, the 28-year-old is certainly hot to foxtrot.

When she appeared in the Kiwi version of strictly - Dancing With The Stars - she was linked with her her co-stars.

Tongues were set wagging after her dance partner Brendon Pongia appeared on a radio show the morning after the pair was eliminated and admitted that he had not been home.

Later that day ex-basketball star Brendon and Hayley both appeared bleary-eyed on a TV show, yet denied they had quick-stepped it back to her place.

And it's good news for her Strictly partner - Olympic swimmer Mark Foster.

Hayley seems to have developed a taste for water champions after also being linked with another of her Strictly partners - Kiwi Olympic swimming champion Danyon Loader.

Hayley was drafted into the UK show to replace axed dancer Nicole Cutler.

But despite clicking with her co-stars away from the dancefloor, Hayley said she is not always pleased with the selection of her partners.

Moaned

She moaned: "The dancers have to make do with who they get given.

"It's a bit nerve-racking before you find out who they've paired you off with.

"I think the producers try and match up people who might make headlines, romance possibilities etc."

"It is all a cunning plan."

Not only is Hayley a whizz on the dancefloor, she also hits the slopes as a professional snow-boarder.

And dressing up in sequins does nothing for her credibility with fellow boarders

"They give me a hard time" she laughed. "They couldn't believe the person who danced across their screens last year. I look NOTHING like a dancer when I'm in my baggy boarding gear and most of them had no idea I moonlighted as a ballroom dancer."

Love

Despite making her name through dancing, she admits that snowboarding is her first love.

"I have given up dancing before so that I could follow winters and pursue snowboarding, so if I had to pick between them, it would have to be snowboarding." she revealed.

Hayley has been dating All Blacks rugby captain Richie McCaw for over a year - but the cross-continent romance could prove a problem.

The pair had been planning to move in together, but have put their arrangements on hold while Hayley is living in London.

A pal of the pair told us "Richie is in love with Hayley, but worries whether they can keep their romance alive when they are thousands of miles apart - especially given her track record on dance shows."

Hayley is no stranger to reality TV having won NZD 50,000 (over £18,000) on Treasure Island, Pirates of the Pacific, beating contestants such as Rebecca Loos.

Based on our, it already looks like she's on winning form.
