Rylan Clark Reacts To New Strictly Come Dancing Hosts Announcement
An hour after the BBC’s announcement, Rylan posted on Instagram: “Just wanted to say as it was reported I was in ‘the race’ for Strictly, the biggest congrats to my Emma and equal congrats to Johannes and Josh. You’re all going to have the best time. Made up for yous.
“This wasn’t my time sadly but [I’m] extremely grateful to even have been considered.”
“I’m taking the news really well (see next slide) but genuinely looking forward to the new series with you three,” he added, before reposting an iconic clip of himself crying during his early days as a contestant on the talent search The X Factor.
Rylan isn’t the only It Takes Two alum to have spoken about missing out on the role hosting the main show.
Fleur East also admitted she’s been feeling “bothered” about being overlooked for the hosting job, having fronted the spin-off series since 2023.
