Strictly Come Dancing judge Aussie Craig Revel Horwood will be quizzed by immigration chiefs after claims that he lied to stay in Britain. Craig, 41, applied for residency saying he was happily married to Brit Jane even though they were planning divorce. Craig left her after a year to live with a gay partner. The acid-tongued TV judge could now face the boot from Britain. His deception is revealed in three letters. The first from the Immigration and Nationality Department on April 24, 1991, tells him he can stay in the UK for another year if he can prove he is still married. He writes on March 16, 1992, saying: "My wife and I have been living together since our marriage on August 20, 1990." By then, Craig was with Lloyd Rooney and had a 15-year relationship with him. A letter on April 22, 1992, from Jane to Craig, says: "I have been reading up on divorce." Jane, 47, now remarried, said yesterday: "My marriage to Craig was never a sham." He was not available for comment. The UK Border Agency will investigate." Chef Gary Rhodes and Karen Hardy were kicked off the show last night after his "flat-footed" jive. Former winner Darren Gough said: "They were terrible." Source
