The documentary maker turned ballroom champion is set to appear at Edinburgh’s Assembly Rooms later this week as part of her ‘An Evening with…’ tour to promote her latest book.
Tickets for the show had been priced at almost £40 but in recent days have been slashed to just £10 in a bid to fill empty seats.
The TV star has taken desperate measures to ensure that all seats are filled for the show by enlisting the help of seat filling website Show Film First.
The cut price tickets have been listed on the site this week after a number of seats for the 780 capacity venue were still unsold just days before the show is due to take place.

The show entitled, Stories from Remarkable Mothers, encouraged potential attendees to enter a discount code in order to get an extra huge saving as part of the desperate bid to sell some seats.
Whilst it seems that Stacey’s solo stage endeavours have been a huge disappointment after failing to generate much interest – the BBC star will be hoping for better success when she tours alongside her husband, dancer Kevin Clifton, later this year.
Stacey and Kevin will both appear in the next touring production of West End musical, 2:22: A Ghost Story.
The play, which received recognition for signing up Cheryl to play the lead role, will be hitting local theatres between August and November 2025.
Stacey had previously played the part of Jenny after the high-profile stints of Cheryl and Lily Allen.
However, Stacey was hit by another ticket disaster after her run of the show on the London stage was forced to slash it’s prices.
Last summer, a seat-filling site has dashed prices by more than 50% in a bid to draw even more fans in.
Whilst tickets to see 2.22 were once listed at a whopping £136 during Cheryl’s run, nearly all seats in the venue were down to 50% less with many retailing for just £65.
