Anton du Beke reveals first date mishap with wife Hannah as they celebrate anniversary
April 20, 2020 - 18:05 BST Andrea Caamano Anton du Beke and wife Hannah marked eight years since they began to date on Monday and the Strictly pro dancer shared a funny little anecdote with fans to celebrate the special day.Taking to Twitter, the father-of-two revealed that despite being a whizz on the dance floor and holding the title of"King of Ballroom", his wife actually refused to dance with him the first night they met.
Hannah and Anton reportedly met at a golf club in 2011 and dated for six years before they wed. The couple decided to tie the knot in 2017 following the birth of their twins in March that same year. They managed to keep their nuptials a secret until May when Hannah was spotted wearing an engagement ring and a wedding band while attending the Chelsea Flower Show with her new husband.
The 53-year-old dancer had previously hinted that marriage could be on the cards. Asked about his other half, he told the Mirror:"She's just perfect. I love her above all things. Will we marry? Maybe next year. We're very happy." He added:"Performing was the 'woman' in my life, if you like, but then Hannah came along. She's just perfect. She's very beautiful, clever, but also really kind.
"We've just had a third birthday two days ago, the twins are three, we had a party and it has been lovely. We're also trying to potty train them, trying to get them out of their nappies, and Henrietta is a little bit better at it than George. I think that is normal, boys usually take a little bit longer. Might as well get them into little pants and knickers at this stage, we have nothing better to do," he joked.
He added:"It's the best time. You're always so busy, you're always off so this time has been wonderful because we are just together. Hannah, me and the babies, we are just together and having the best time. This has just been beautiful, I am loving every second of just spending time with them and being with them and being all together and doing stuff."

BP Celebrates 10th Anniversary Of Deepwater Horizon By Dyeing Gulf Of Mexico BlackPORT FOURCHON, LA—On the very spot off the Louisiana coast where the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded and left the company’s mark on the region forever, BP celebrated the 10th anniversary of its historic, 210-million-gallon oil spill Monday by dyeing the entire Gulf of Mexico black. “Ten years ago today was a landmark in BP’s history—no, in America’s history—and we wanted to commemorate it with a splash,” said former BP CEO Tony Hayward, the event’s keynote speaker, as a 1,500-foot oil tanker released into the gulf an inky black dye, the chemical composition of which company officials declined to disclose to reporters. “So as a tribute we will now blacken these waters from the Florida Panhandle all the way to Texas, lest Americans forget this unique heritage and reach a point where they no longer instinctively recall, with each passing of a BP station along the highway, the greatest marine oil spill the world has ever known. Today, a full decade later, hydrocarbons can still be found in every fish in the gulf—every single one of them—and more than half the area’s dolphins still suffer from lung disease. I daresay that is a legacy more remarkable than any of us could have imagined.” At press time, Hayward extended an invitation to families with small children to come down to a local beach where BP planned to continue the festivities by hosting a traditional turtle-stomping.
