Rylan Clark will be stepping down from his presenting role on Strictly: It Takes Two after four years, the BBC has announced today (April 12). Both the BBC and Rylan have issued statements on the matter, with the former X Factor contestant stating that the show will "always have [his] heart".
Announcing the news on social media, the 34-year-old posted a headshot of himself alongside his reason for leaving the show behind. "After 4 fantastic years it's time for me to hang up my glittery jacket and say goodbye to It Takes Two," the statement said.
"I've had the best time hosting the show alongside Janette and Zoe and I can't thank the amazing team enough for always putting on a great show. I've been welcomed into the Strictly family and will firmly hold that title dear to me."
