Kimberly Wyatt has turned down the chance to appear on 'Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins'.
The 41-year-old pop star - who is best known as part of US group The Pussycat Dolls but has been based in the UK for more than a decade - had been approached to take part in the next series of the intense physical challenge show but has to be "careful" about the choices she can continue with her dance career.
Kimberly - who placed third on ITV's 'Dancing on Ice' in 2022 - is quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying: "There were conversations, but I don't think I'm going to do it. I have to be careful. That show would take a toll on your body. And I don't want to give up dancing. I have to be mindful about the choices I make so I can keep doing the things I love. "I love doing reality TV, but it comes with a cost."
The upcoming series of the Channel 4 military adventure show will see the likes of 'Geordie Shore' star Marnie Simpson, comedienne Shazia Mirza and Bianca Gascoyne - who is the daughter of football legend Paul Gascoyne - all put through their paces by trainers Rudy Reyes, Remi Adeleke, Jason 'Foxy' Fox and Mark 'Billy Billingham' in New Zealand when it returns to screens later this year.
Former 'Doctor Who' star John Barrowman had also signed up to the series, but reportedly qut so early on in filming that his exit will go down as the "fastest ever" in the show's history.
A source told The Sun: "John’s exit from Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will go down in the show’s history as the fastest ever. They’d all got kitted up in their uniforms and had started filming in New Zealand when he chose to walk out.
"It is an incredibly mentally and physically challenging television show and the task they were facing was difficult."
