Stacey Solomon has reportedly been lined up for a Strictly Come Dancing stint. The presenter, 35, is thought to be high on the list of BBC bosses for the next edition of the hit dance competition.

And it comes after the Loose Women panellist previously declared her love for the show. She said in the past she is “obsessed” with the series and hinted she would love to be involved. In 2022, Stacey admitted she would love to learn a new skill, but insisted she has “two left feet”.

She said at the time: “I would never say never but I am a terrible dancer, an absolutely terrible dancer.”

She added: “I don’t know why but I have no rhythm when it comes to movement. I have rhythm with singing or listening to music but when it comes to moving my feet I am left-footed, I have two left feet!”

However, she did admit she was “obsessed” with the show and its costumes. “I’d be one of those people who would go out in week one and they’d be like: ‘Well that was a waste of time!,” she joked.

Now, a source has told The Sun: “Stacey is a hit with viewers thanks to her lovable personality. The BBC always want to showcase their own talent on Strictly and Stacey’s show has already bagged them an NTA.

“Fans will also love watching her husband Joe Swash in the audience cheering her on every week.”

Stacey is well versed with reality TV, having had stints on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here as well as rising to fame through the X Factor. She is also involved in fly-on-the-wall series Stacey & Joe as cameras follow their family.

In one of the most recent episodes of the show, former EastEnders star Joe was overcome with emotion, sharing a poignant personal struggle, while Stacey Solomon provided support and solace. Cameras followed as Stacey busied herself crafting eerie decorations for her upcoming Halloween bash.

Meanwhile, Joe set off to explore a glamping expo. It was there that he was confronted with the stark financial reality of his ambition to construct a fishing lake. Then, the episode took an intimate turn as Joe confided in Stacey about his lifelong battle with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and reflected on how it has shaped him.

“Being a kid, I don’t think ADHD back then was even recognised, so I had ADHD and a touch of dyslexia, so I really got tarred with the brush of being a naughty kid,” Joe said.

He went on: “I feel like I sort of invented this character to sort of protect myself a little bit, just making people laugh.”

As part of the episode’s journey, Joe went to a psychiatrist to “try and get a grip” on managing his ADHD amidst a hectic work schedule. After his consultation, the actor considered giving medication another chance. He was then seen returning home to Pickle Cottage where he opened up to Stacey.

In a raw moment, he confided: “It’s opened up a box of worms for me, where it goes a little bit deeper than I thought it was going to.”
