In a video clip before he performed, Bobby said of his mum, who died in 2009 aged 27 after being diagnosed with cervical cancer, said: "It changed my life completely, I’d love to spend a day with her just to see where I get my smile from." He is also the son of TV presenter Jeff Brazier, who spoke about the family’s grief.
He said "loss makes you grow closer” before adding: "I’m the lucky one, I’m the one who gets to bring the boys up, I’m the one who gets to watch them on Strictly, it brings to my joy to my life."
