On Wednesday, 15 August, Roman Kemp, Vick Hope and Sonny Jay announced that their favourite Geordie gal was taking part in Strictly, and Vick said "I'm so excited about being a contestant on this year’s Strictly. I’ve always been such a massive fan of the show so it’s a huge honour to be part of this series.

"Dances like Ballroom and Latin are totally outside my comfort zone but I love dancing, it makes people happy - myself included - so to be able to perform every Saturday is such an incredible opportunity and I genuinely couldn’t be more looking forward to throwing myself into it, working hard and learning from the judges every week," continued the 28-year-old presenter.

Well, we've seen your dances in the studio every time we play Little Mix, so we have no doubt you'll nail it, Vick.
