Judi Love has become the 14th contestant confirmed for this year's 'Strictly Come Dancing'.

The 'Loose Women' star is "so nervous" about taking part in the BBC Latin and ballroom show, but she is determined to give it her all when the programme returns to screens late next month because it's a dream come true to be a part of the line-up.
She said: "I think I am still in shock that I will be part of this amazing show. I’ve watched it for many years and admired the phenomenal abilities of these dancers and celebrities that have taken part and dedicated themselves to learning a new craft. I’m truly looking forward to pushing myself in something that I could have only dreamed of doing and now it’s actually coming true! I can’t lie I’m so nervous but excited at the same time.”
The comedienne is yet to find out who she will be partnered with for the show but she admitted during today's (13.08.21) episode of 'Loose Women' that she's hoping producers will put her with hunky professional dancer Graziano Di Prima because she likes his "nice long hair."
The 41-year-old funny woman was unveiled on the lunchtime panel show as the latest 'Strictly' contestant after her fellow panellist Linda Robson tried to convince viewers it was her instead by entering the studio from the ceiling on a hula hoop to the famous theme tune.
It comes shortly after swimming legend Adam Peaty was also revealed to be joining the line-up alongside Katie McGlynn, Dan Walker, Sara Davies, Tom Fletcher, Robert Webb, AJ Odudu, Rhys Stephenson, and former 'Great British Bake Off' winner John Whaite.
