"She can't wait to take on the challenge and is definitely going to be one to watch this series."

The announcement comes following The One Show's announcement that three names would be revealed live on air, on Tuesday evening, with Jason, Max and Caroline soon appearing.

Meanwhile, due to Covid-19 social distancing guidelines, new rules will have to come into place with it thought the stars and professional dancers will have to stay in a hotel as to isolate together.

It will apparently be a shorter series too, expected to launch at some point in October while this is yet to be confirmed.

It’s not entirely sure how things will change for the dancers in terms of training and usual performances.
