Holly Willoughby was all smiles as she made her way to Winter Wonderland, following recent speculation that she is set to take over hosting duties on Strictly Come Dancing. The popular TV personality is said to have secured the role for the upcoming series.
Current hosts Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly are stepping down from their presenting roles on the BBC show, sparking discussions about their successors. The duo will bid farewell during the upcoming Christmas special.
Looking cheerful and festive, Holly embraced the holiday spirit with a visit to the London attraction, where she happily posed for photos. This outing coincided with the rumors swirling about her potential new role as the replacement for Tess and Claudia.
Former BBC director Peter Fincham, who served from 2005 to 2007, has reportedly indicated that Holly is the frontrunner to replace either Claudia Winkleman or Tess Daly, who have been at the helm of the show for the past two decades.
In a recent statement, Holly revealed her decision to leave This Morning after a remarkable 14-year tenure to prioritize her family. She expressed gratitude to her colleagues, viewers, and guests for their support and loyalty over the years.
Tess and Claudia made their surprising announcement not long ago, leaving many in shock. Professional dancer Katya Jones voiced her support for Janette Manrara to take on the hosting role, citing her experience and understanding of the show’s dynamics.
