Carbon Paint Centre Sends Best Wishes to Stephanie Kelly as She Prepares for ‘Dancing With the Stars’ 100th Episode
The team at Carbon Paint Centre are sending their support and best wishes to their favourite DWTS (Ireland) contestant, Stephanie Kelly, as she prepares for a special star-studded edition of the RTÉ show.
Stephanie, whose husband Craig Hopkins has been a key part of the Carbon Paint Centre operation since 2024, is set to participate in the celebratory 100th episode of Dancing With the Stars on Sunday evening (22nd February).
According to RTÉ, the upcoming show is “introducing a one-off ‘all-stars’ twist for the anniversary week, with seven former contestants returning as mentors”.
This means that each of the remaining couples will be asked to “redo, reimagine and reinterpret one of their mentor’s most memorable routines from the past eight seasons”.
Barry Doyle, Branch Manager at Carbon Paint Centre in Finglas, says the entire paint and coatings team in Dublin 11 has been hugely impressed with the Fair City star’s progress:
“We’ve been following Stephanie’s journey in recent weeks and we’ve been hugely impressed with her skill and dedication. Stephanie’s athleticism and her ability to master all the various styles has been remarkable.”
Meanwhile, Stephanie’s husband, Craig Hopkins, welcomed Carbon Paint Centre’s support and said it’s been an exciting time for his family.
“We’re all so proud of Stephanie”, explains Craig. “The amount of hard work and determination we’ve seen from her is incredibly inspiring.”
“Ahead of Sunday, I’d like to send huge love and best wishes to Stephanie from myself, and also from the wider family. We’re so very proud of all of Stephanie’s achievements and seeing her dedication to DWTS since the beginning of the show in January has been amazing. I know we’re all looking forward to the Week 7 show on Sunday. It’s great to have so many people cheering her on.”
