Former professional dancer and fitness enthusiast James Jordan, known for his appearance on Strictly Come Dancing, has suffered a severe allergic reaction to aloe vera gel.
On April 20, he took to Twitter to ask his thousands of followers for help in recovering from the reaction, which left his arm “red raw.”
The use of aloe vera gel is often recommended for skin conditions such as burns, wounds, and dry skin. However, as Jordan found out, it can also trigger an adverse reaction in those with sensitive skin.
Jordan and his wife Ola, also a former Strictly star, have become known for their fitness journey, which saw them lose a combined seven stone through a diet and exercise plan called ‘Dance Shred.’
The transformation has not only improved their physical health but also their sex life, according to Ola.
