Which celebrities have signed up for the show?

Helen Worth

After announcing in June that she’s leaving Coronation Street after an amazing 50 years, betting odds are high that actress Helen Worth could sign up for the show!

GK Barry

Social media star GK Barry, also known as Grace Keeling, is rumoured to be in talks for the 2024 series, with bosses eager to bring in a younger audience. According to reports in the media, GK Barry is in ‘advanced talks’ after two meetings with bosses.

Nicola Roberts

Following her appearance on the 2022 Christmas special, Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts could be about to sign up for the main show in 2024! Bosses are reportedly very keen to get Nicola on the show, following Girls Aloud’s reunion tour.

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz

According to reports in early 2024, Strictly bosses are keen to make history on the show by signing up married couple Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz to both appear! The rumours are suggesting David and Victoria Beckham’s son Brooklyn will be in direct competition with his wife Nicole. Now this would be a huge signing if bosses can pull it off!

Jill Scott MBE

After being crowned Queen of the Jungle during the 2022 series of I’m A Celebrity, former England footballer Jill Scott was heavily rumoured for the 2023 series of Strictly, but after Jill didn’t feature, will 2024 be her year?

Phillip Schofield

Rumours have circulated that Phillip Schofield could be taking to the Strictly dancefloor for years, but since his departure from This Morning after 21 years, they’ve stepped up a notch – with publications reporting that offers have been more “aggressive” this year than for previous series of the show.

Gino D’Acampo

He’s loved by the masses, so it’s no surprise Strictly bosses are keen to get TV chef Gino D’Acampo on the 2024 series. Gino has been asked to do the show in the past, but he turned the offer down. Will he accept this year?

Louis Theroux

Louis Theroux appeared on The Jonathan Ross show last year, where he said: “I know I’ve had too many drinks when I’m in the kitchen dancing while listening to something on the smart speaker, often hip-hop, and I start doing the funky robot and then I start doing MC Hammer spins.

“And that’s where it happens and I start thinking I should really go on Strictly.”

Now we would pay to see that – sign him up!

Sophie Morgan

Loose Women star and TV presenter Sophie Morgan is rumoured to become the first ever wheelchair user to take part in Strictly. A source said: “She is the ideal star to take on the role. Plus, she is very glamorous so will look amazing in the sequined costumes. She already has a huge fan base from Loose Women and is a huge advocate of using her platform to promote inclusivity. It’s still very early ­stages and the crew will officially start on pre-production in the coming months.”

Alan Carr

Funny man Alan Carr would make a great addition to the show! Alan appeared on Loose Women where he confirmed he’d been asked to take part in the past, so will we see him on the 2024 series?

Rosie Jones

Comedian and actress Rosie Jones recently admitted watching deaf contestant Rose Ayling-Ellis win the series in 2021 inspired her.

Speaking to metro.co.uk, she said: “I’d say what drives me, is when I was growing up, having cerebral palsy I didn’t see anybody like me on TV.

“In recent years, people like Rose Ayling-Ellis on Strictly have just shown that having a disability isn’t a disadvantage and it will never stop me!”

Vicky McClure

Following the popularity and success of shows like Line of Duty and Trigger Point, actress Vicky McClure has been linked to the 2024 series of Strictly.

Perri Kiely

Diversity star and KISS FM Breakfast presenter Perri Kiely confessed a few years ago he’d love to take part on the show. Speaking to Digital Spy, the former BGT winner said: “If it was on a technical level, that would be horrendous, so I’d definitely love to give it a go. But I’m not sure people would see that. They’d probably see an unfair advantage. People thought I was cheating on Dancing on Ice, let alone Strictly Come Dancing.”

Tom Malone Jr

After leaving Gogglebox in 2021, Tom Malone Jr has expressed his interest in appearing on Strictly in the past. He told the Express: “If the opportunity came up to go on Strictly as a contestant, I’ve never done Ballroom in my life, so it’d be interesting to see how as someone who breaks.”

Munroe Bergdorf

Model Munroe Bergdorf revealed last year she wants to make history by becoming Strictly Come Dancing’s first ever transgender contestant.

She told the Make It Reign podcast: “I’ve always said that ‘Strictly’ is the only one that I’ve got a desire to do. I’ve got a plan. I want to get everything done that I want to achieve, then I can start doing those shows. It’s really exciting.”

Tommy Fury

After showcasing his ‘moves’ on his spin-off show The Boxer and the Ballroom Dancer with Love Island co-star Curtis Pritchard, fans have been urging Strictly to sign up boxer Tommy Fury.

Michelle Keegan

Since her husband Mark Wright made it into the Strictly final in 2014, every year rumours have been rife that actress Michelle Keegan will sign up.

But Mark set fire to the rumours even further when he took part in Christmas special back in 2019, telling the Radio Times: “Never say never, but I just think her nerves would go to another level.”

Andrew Ridgeley

Wham! star Andrew Ridgeley confessed in July last year he’d love to take part in Strictly, admitting he’d love the chance to learn how to dance properly. He’d be a great signing for 2024!

Martin Roberts

Homes Under the Hammer host Martin Roberts is rumoured to be appearing after he told the Daily Mail newspaper at an awards ceremony: “I’m like a Ninja Mutant Hero Turtle – I just eat pizzas. Domino’s Mighty Meat. I’m the stomach of Domino’s, not the face of it.
“I should worry about what I eat because I had a health scare. I need to look after myself better.
“And certainly if I get this TV show later in the year. I’ll have to get super fit.”
