Johannes Radebe confirms if he'll keep dancing amid new Strictly Come Dancing role
Johannes Radebe says the new presenting role is a dream come true and confirms he will keep dancing on the BBC One show.
Johannes Radebe joins Strictly Come Dancing as co-host alongside Emma Willis and Josh Widdicombe for the upcoming series, describing the new role as a 'dream come true.'
The trio replaces longtime hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, who quit the BBC One show at the end of the 2025 series in December, marking a new era for the program.
Vincent Simone, former Strictly professional, admitted he was initially surprised by the announcement, while Reddit users including PrincessMoon expressed concern Radebe would lose his dancing role.
Radebe confirmed there are 'no plans to hang up his dancing shoes,' assuring fans he will still be 'throwing some shapes and moving my hips' despite the hosting role.
The BBC confirmed Radebe will remain involved in group routines as Strictly Come Dancing returns this September with new professionals and judges, a decision judge Shirley Ballas supports.
