Exclusive Strictly odds on who could replace Dani Dyer

With just days away from this year’s first live show, fans are awaiting whether she will be replaced. According to bookies at Sportscasting, however, there is a 4/6 chance that she will be and 6/5 that she won’t.

If she were to be replaced, ED! has been exclusively told who is most likely to be joining Nikita on the dancefloor…

No stranger to the show, Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts has odds of 5/1. The Whole Lotta History hitmaker previously starred in the Christmas special with Giovanni Pernice in 2022.

Broadcaster Kay Burley (6/1) and former footballer Jill Scott (7/1) fall just behind. Meanwhile, Olivia Attwood and Helen Worth have joint odds of 8/1.

“It’s a wide-open field, and punters are clearly expecting Strictly to deliver another surprise casting,” spokesperson Shane Orton told ED!

Dani’s statement

Dani announced she had left Strictly yesterday evening (September 23) in a heartfelt Instagram post.

In a statement, the former Love Island winner shared: “I had a fall on Friday in rehearsals and landed funny. I thought I had rolled my foot but it swelled up badly over the weekend and after an MRI scan yesterday, it turns out I have fractured my ankle.”

She continued: “Apparently doing the quickstep on a fracture is not advisable (!!) and the doctors have said I am not allowed to dance so l’ve had to pull out of the show. To say I’m heartbroken is the biggest understatement. I am so going to miss dancing with Nikita but will of course be watching closely and cheering all the couples on.”
