Both Katelyn Cummins and Tolu Makay are competing on this season of Dancing With The Stars Ireland.
The Laois Rose says it's a great comfort to live with Offaly's Tolu Makay, while competing in Dancing With The Stars.
Katelyn Cummins and her partner Leonardo Lini danced a difficult quick-step to 'Hit the Diff' by Marty Mone for the season's 'Country Week' episode, where she lost her top spot on the leaderboard.
She says it's great to have Tolu for support during the perfomances and at home after tough rehearsals.
This week is Dedicated Dance Week, and is airing on Sunday night at 6:30pm.
She says the experience has been intense but rewarding:
