Strictly star AJ Odudu swept away the October blues by jetting off on a sunshine break to Antigua.

The TV presenter, 34, described her holiday as a ‘sweet sweet fantasy,’ borrowing a lyric from the Marian Carey classic.

She stayed in the luxury five star adults-only all-inclusive Hammock Cove resort, enjoying pamper treatments as well as paddle boarding and snorkelling in the sea with close pal and talent manager Mikey Abegunde.

AJ says: ‘I loved Antigua from the very first time I visited for a yoga retreat a few years ago and was so happy to get the chance to go back.

‘It’s an absolutely stunning island with a laid back vibe perfect for taking a little time out.

‘The welcome from the Elite Island Resorts team at Hammock Cove was so warm, and I’m fully recharged after spending time taking in the beautiful views and enjoying some paddle boarding on the ocean too.’
