will soon be competing on , and his proud brother Ryan Thomas doesn’t think will be holding him back.
The Waterloo actor was diagnosed with the uncurable disease that causes pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints, earlier this year, which can make things ‘tough’ but he has immense support from family.
When asked how Adam, 35, was coping with his new work commitment and illness, Ryan, 39, told Metro.co.uk: ‘He’s doing everything with a smile on his face.’
He added: ‘He loves a challenge and as a family, we’re really, really proud of him and we’ll be with him until the very end.’
Although the 2023 season is yet to get underway, the question of who will lift the glitterball is already been asked.
Big Brother winner Ryan gave a diplomatic answer: ‘He’s gonna try his very hardest and he’s gonna enjoy every minute of it. That’s all you can ask from somebody.
‘As long as he challenges himself and he’s enjoying it, that’s all we want and all we can ask as a family.’
He then began canvasing for votes by concluding with a ‘Vote for Adam Thomas!’
Adam was attending the Pretty Little Thing show with Naomi Campbell in New York, to support his best friend, the CEO Umar Kamani,
‘We’re from Manchester and we’re just normal, regular guys. We shouldn’t even be here and the fact that we can share this together as a family, as friends, is a really special moment,’ he proudly shared.
He’ll need to fly back home as soon as possible as Strictly is kicking off on 16th September and we’re sure Adam will want Ryan in the audience.
Although, we don’t know who is partnered with who yet,
An interaction between Bobby and at Tuesday’s NTAs will no doubt spark speculation that they’ll be dancing together this season.
Following Bobby’s award win at the ceremony, 34-year-old Dianne – who looked fabulous in a green dress at the glitzy bash – was seen walking over to the EastEnders star and his dad Jeff Brazier for a chat.
What’s more, Dianne and Bobby also enjoyed a quick boogie together, with both wiggling their hips around while in each other’s company.
Adam will be with Luba Mushtuk according to
As pretty tall people in the class – Adam, 34, who stands at 5’11 and 5’7 Luba, 33, could be a dancing match made in heaven.
Having previously been partnered with sportsmen – Olympic rowing champion James Cracknell OBE and American football player Jason Bell – could an actor from Waterloo Road be the one to finally get her the coveted Glitterball?
