While speaking on the We Built This City: Greater Manchester podcast to Lisa Morton, Gemma said: "When I did Strictly, I used to dance with Aljaz and we used to rehearse in Manchester and since then every year Aljaz has been looking at places to buy in Manchester because he just fell in love with the city. Him and his wife Janette were like: 'There's no city like it!'"
During the chat about living in the sought-after northern location, Gemma declared: "I wouldn't have it any other way." And it looks as though her love for the city has rubbed off on her dancing pals too!
