Oti Mabuse teases Strictly return as she rehearses with Amy Dowden and other dancers

Former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer and TV presenter Oti Mabuse has sparked rumours of a return to the BBC One dancing show, after she was spotted rehearing with the other professional dancers. Preparation is currently underway for Strictly's 20th series, which is set to air in the autumn. Recently, BBC confirmed which celebrities would be taking part, which you can read about here.

Oti, herself, announced that she'd be leaving Strictly earlier this year. The 31-year-old, who also works on ITV's Dancing on Ice and The Masked Dancer, has now been spotted on the Instagram Stories of both Amy Dowden and Neil Jones - who it is rumoured may be partnering with Helen Skelton this year.

"Our queen back," newlywed Amy wrote alongside a picture of herself, Oti and Nancy Xu together. Amy then revealed that despite a rumoured return, Oti was only back "for one day" and teased her for borrowing her top for rehearsals. Neil also shared a video which showed Oti helping Karen Hauer with a few steps. "Look who's back," he wrote alongside it.
