So Alesha Dixon has won “Strictly”. Good for her.
She needed the boost after the 13 months she’s had. I mean it’s not every day you have to endure a very public relationship meltdown the way Alesha has had to. When the partner of a close friend finds your close friend in bed with your husband – well, tragedy. Still Alesha seemed to bounce back, as this rather famous picture from “ebay” shows -

Now some may think “wow, good for you girl – cleaning out your closet in more ways than one!”, but what was really going on in her head? Revenge? It’s hard to understand what a situation like that could do to someone mentally. The dress went for £7,500 though, and it’s amazing how healing money can be.
Allegedly Alesha was pregnant with Harvey’s baby at the time of the marriage break down and, after realising the extent of the situation and not wanting to be tied down to Harvey in any way, had an abortion.
A couple of tabloid newspapers were going to run with the story, and it got so far as to be written up before someone realised what a sad situation it all actually was and canceled it. Lucky for Dixon as abortion remains very controversial.
So Alesha gets thrust back into the limelight again, for the first real time since Mis-teeq split. She’s not been doing much for a while and her solo singles flopped leading to the cancellation of her album. But now with “Strictly” behind her, maybe it’s not all over after all.
