Tonight is prop night on TV3's Dancing with the Stars and although Jay-Jay Harvey has already used pom-poms in the competition, she and dance partner Enrique Johns may just have a secret weapon in the form of Harvey's husband Dom as their dance "prop".

The fact that Dom has not already leaped on to the dance floor is amazing.

Harvey told Spy: "I have had him in the dance studio all week with Enrique, learning to dance and be a part of the experience. Three of us together, like one happy threesome.

"An awkward threesome, though. Especially since I told everyone on national TV last week that Dom and I wanted to adopt Enrique as our African child."

Johns' relationship with the radio couple has been interesting. Harvey told Spy Dom would only let her go on the show if she could have a partner who was gay.

"Enrique tells me he is not gay and next minute someone who knows him texted us in the studio to tell us he likes older women."

On Friday and Saturday nights when Harvey and Enrique have gone out dancing, they have lived in each other's pockets.

Harvey says: "Enrique knows the pin number to my Eftpos card and my cellphone. He has become my best friend. We have had one disagreement and he got me flowers."

So how will her husband, the third wheel, go tonight?

"Dom seems to like Enrique and I don't think he finds him a threat at all. He doesn't seem to mind our friendship, either."

But Dom doesn't sound overly confident about his foray onto the dance floor.

"The producers called and asked me a month ago if I'd like to be a surprise prop for props' week," he said.

"Now I wish I'd said no. I am hopeless. I make Pam Corkery look like Justin Timberlake.

"Imagine a baby giraffe attempting to walk on an ice skating rink ... that is what it looks like when I dance."
