We let our daughter, 3, sleep with us in bed but we don’t care what trolls say, admit Strictly’s Ola and James Jordan
STRICTLY Come Dancing stars Ola and James Jordan admit they let their daughter Ella sleep in their bed and “don’t care” what trolls say.
The Showbiz couple, who married in 2003, welcomed their beautiful baby in February 2020 after a three-year IVF battle.

And they told The Sun they received online trolling for letting Ella sleep in bed with them.
James, 45, said: “So many people asked us about letting Ella sleep in our bed, it was always the biggest thing and people said how wrong it was.”
Ola (40) added: “But she’s sleeping! And that means I get hugs in the morning and I’ll take all the hugs I can get so…”
The loving parents opened up about the struggles of being in the public eye and parenting.
“You can never read the real book – you just deal with it and ask questions. No one is the same. We don’t really know what we’re doing, but nobody does. Everyone has their opinions,” added blonde beauty Ola.
She continued: “You have to do what’s right for you. Whether she sleeps with you or she doesn’t. It’s about doing what’s right for you.”
The fitness enthusiasts also opened up to the potential to expand their brood.
Ola, who says she is the “stricter” parent of the two, explained: “We don’t know. We will see what happens.”
And James added: “Obviously Ella was IVF and it’s not as easy as people might think it is. People say ‘oh now you’ve had Ella, the next one will just happen naturally’ but it’s not always not the case.”
The Strictly couple, who recently moved into a new home, often give their legions of fans a glimpse into their family life with their adorable daughter.
Ella recently turned three with an epic Frozen-themed birthday party, but despite loving playful experiences with their daughter, the couple say they’re also “very homely” people.
That said, they recently headed for a day out at Gabby’s dollhouse – based on DreamWorks Animation’s hit TV series Gabby’s Dollhouse, Gabby on the Go!
The couple were joined by Rachel Riley and her Strictly star Pasha Kovalev and their little ones.
“She was so excited to go,” James said, adding: “She watches it on Netflix and loves it and of course the fact that it’s free is so good, what with everything being so expensive these days. Having Gabby in to be able to go and see the flesh was incredible.”
The fun experience is packed with unboxing surprises, fun activities and all her kitty friends – plus it’s free.
Gabby’s dollhouse will travel to six cities over six weeks, with Cardiff, Manchester, Sheffield, Glasgow and Newcastle still to go.
