Former Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole dropped a major hint that he is set to permanently quit dancing - just days before he was axed from the hit BBC show .
The New-Zealand born professional, who was given the boot by show bosses after 13 years, had already been talking about his dance career coming to an end and has plans for an unlikely career change as a builder and property developer.
Brendan - who was a dancefloor favourite among fans of the show - apparently wants the challenge of the ‘hard’ labour that the job entails.

He said: “I’d like to develop property. I used to build houses right from when I left school.
“I really enjoyed doing it; I like the hard work and the hard labour of doing it. I get stuck in. When my dancing career ends I will start up property developing.”
The dancer also revealed he was starting to struggle with some of the dancemoves during the most recent series of Strictly - after admitting that learning the complicated dance routines has become ‘harder’ for him.
Speaking in Yours magazine, Brendan added: “It’s certainly getting harder for me. I try and look after myself, but one day it will be too hard.”
