Helen Skelton is said to be top of Celebs Go Dating producers' hit list for the new series, with them ready to table a big money offer for her to do the show after her Strictly Come Dancing success.
The final star to be confirmed for Strictly last year, Helen signed up to head into the BBC ballroom, months after her split from Richie Myler, with the couple's relationship coming to an abrupt end not long after the birth of their youngest child. A lot was made about Helen's marriage heartache during her time on Strictly, with pro partner Gorka Marquez eluding to it in an empowering tribute to Helen as cameras rolled and her Couple's Choice routine to Mein Herr from Cabaret being seen by fans as her 'revenge' dance.
Helen made it all the way to the Strictly final in December, being beaten by Hamza Yassin, but then earned bragging rights on the show's annual live tour when she and new partner Kai Widdrington won the trophy for topping the most audience votes at arenas around the country.
