Kevin managed to give fans a thumbs up but told them he has had a really “rough week”.
His illness means he was forced to pull out of performing in two Strictly Ballroom – The Musical shows in Liverpool.
Kevin wrote on Instagram: “After not missing a show through illness or injury since 2010 I’ve had a hell of a rough week. Can’t remember the last time i was this ill.”
Kevin then went on to thank his private doctor, adding that the medical professional is ‘getting him back on his feet’.
Fans were quick to comment on Kevin’s post, with one writing: “Sorry to hear you’ve been feeling poorly. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a fab return to your dream role.”
Another added: “Sorry you’ve been ill, hope you are soon shining with light again.”
And a third said: “Sorry to hear you’re not well. Hope you feel better soon. Wishing you a Speedy Recovery. Sending love n hugs.”
Kevin’s pregnant parter Stacey Dooley also commented alongside seven ‘crying with laughter’ emojis, teasing: “this is SO LOVE OF HUNS I CANT.”
Stacey did then add a love heart, saying: “But also.”
Kevin sarcastically replied: “Thanks for the sympathy!”
Stacey and Kevin met when they were partnered on the 2018 series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The pair, who went on to win the Glitterball Trophy, then got together romantically months later following the Strictly Live Tour.
This August, they confirmed they are expecting their first baby together.
Alongside a photo of her little bump, Stacey wrote on Instagram: “We are having a baby!
“So bloody delighted. Kev, you’re magic. I love you.”
