Una Healy is top of the bookie's list as most likely to join the Dancing With The Stars Ireland 2023 cast as the show plans its new year return.
Rumours about the shows cancellation have been swirling since Nicky Byrne announced his departure from the show, but RTE confirmed in a statement that it is looking forward to the popular programme returning to RTE One in 2023.
Ladbrokes has opened the betting on who will win the coveted glitterball trophy with Una Healy leading the suspected line-up. Also expected to appear on 2023 edition of Dancing With The Stars Ireland is Dublin comedy sensation and My Therapist Ghosted Me podcast host Joanne McNally.

Una Healy leads at 3/1, followed by Love Island 2022 contestant Dami Hope at 8/1 and Joanne McNally at 10/1.
Following that is Dami's fellow Love Island 2022 alum Jack Keating at 12/1, Claire Byrne at 14/1, Sorcha Furlong at 14/1, Stephen Ferris at 16/1, James Kavanagh at 16/1, Dee Devlin at 18/1 and Pat Spillane at 33/1.
Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said: "Following mounting interest in the next series of DWTS, we have opened the betting on potential celebs that could be set to break out the moves on our screens next year.
"With everyone from GAA pundits to girl band singers in the mix, viewers could be in for a season of TV gold."
Although Dami is a frontrunner in the rumoured line-up of Dancing With The Stars contestants, the Love Island finalist previously stated that he would prefer to be a presenter on the show rather than take part in the competition itself.
Dami told The Mirror: “I’m rumoured for it, but I don’t know if I want to do the dancing part. I might prefer to do the co-hosting and talk and commentate and stuff because dancing… I feel like it is a big commitment."
RTE is yet to confirm who will join Jennifer Zamparelli as co-host of Dancing With The Stars 2023 following Nicky Byrne's departure. RTE revealed: "RTE does not comment on contractual agreements. No decision has yet been made on Nicky Byrne's replacement."
