Strictly judge Bruno Tonioli has quit the show to concentrate on his work in the States.
Italian dancer and choreographer Bruno, who is now 66, spent 18 years as a judge on the hit series, although he has missed being a regular on the panel for the last two years due to Covid travel restrictions.
He has a similar role on US show Dancing With The Stars and, according to The Daily Mail, has now 'quit the show for good'.
A source said: 'He's going to be a judge only on [the U.S. version] Dancing With The Stars from now on.'
Anton Du Beke, who was a dancer on the UK show stood in for Bruno as a judge last season, but it's unknown if he will be announced as a replacement.
He told Sussex Life Magazine: "I'm hoping to get a call to say, 'Look, here you go, come back judging please. But we'll wait and see. I'd like to think I'd be on the show in one way or another."
He continued: "I wouldn't like to think they'd just get rid of me altogether. That would be a bit dramatic to go from dancer to judge to off the show. The truth is I haven't been told."
Strictly Come Dancing is due to return for its 20th series.
