Richie Anderson says it's a 'massive honour' to be part of an all-male couple on Strictly Cone Dancing, after he was confirmed as the third contestant for the new series.
Richie is best known for working alongside Zoe Ball on the Radio 2 Breakfast Show, but is also a regular on The One Show and was part of the BBC presenting team for the coverage of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. His place in the Strictly line-up alongside Will Mellor and Kym Marsh, was announced on Friday morning and, in the immediate aftermath, he took to Twitter to post: "Can’t believe I’m typing this! I’M GOING TO BE ON STRICTLY COME DANCING 2022. My dream has come true
"I can’t wait to get in the Iconic ballroom. Good luck to my pro partner as my dancing skills have previously been compared to Bambi on ice...bring it on."
