Oti Mabuse has suggested she's "not done" with her 'Strictly Come Dancing' journey.
Oti Mabuse is 'not done' with Strictly Come Dancing
The 31-year-old professional dancer quit the BBC One Latin and ballroom show earlier this year after seven years, and has since gone on to be a judge on rival shows 'Dancing on Ice' and 'The Masked Dancer', while she's also the host of the new dating show Romeo and Duet'.
However, the South African choreographer has seemingly claimed she hasn't ruled out returning to 'Strictly'.
In an interview with WalesOnline, she said: "'Strictly' has been everything to me and has given me this amazing platform that I have. No, I’m not done - it still has a place in my heart."
Announcing her departure from the dancing competition, she wrote on Instagram in February: “Never easy to say goodbye. I have been part of the most amazing TV show, 'Strictly Come Dancing' for the past seven years and it has been an incredible time.
“Lifting the glitterball twice and having the best journey with all my celebrities, but also meeting and working with the best team, crew, producers, celebs and incredible professional dancers! You are my family and I adore you all forever.”
Oti insisted it's "not for [her]" to say if she will return for future series of 'Strictly'.
Asked if she would be "gutted" if she "didn't have time" for the show this year, Oti replied: "Everybody keeps asking me. It's not for me to say.
"'Strictly' is such a big machine and no one is bigger than that show. To touch anything around 'Strictly' is such an honour and it will always be who I am. For everyone who's on it and part of it on and off screen, we all truly love it."
Oti previously explained there's a "process and a protocol" to follow before her 'Strictly' future is decided.
Asked if she'll return for the next series, she said: "I don't know yet. There will be an announcement made by 'Strictly', not just about me, but there’s a process and a protocol."
