The dance competition series will air on BBC One. Fifteen couples will be taking part in the show. The series is expected to premiere in September with themed weeks and a live audience.
The show also has a massive celebrity line-up, including Tom Fletcher, Robert Webb, AJ Odudu, Katie McGlynn and more.
During an interview with hosts Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes, Matilda aka Tilly confessed to being “slightly terrified” of taking part in the show:
“I’ve tried dancing before when I was much younger. Mum put us all in ballet. We weren’t very good so we were moved into football camp.” – Tilly Ramsay
Gordon Ramsay also wished his daughter well for her latest challenge:
“Hey Tills, it’s your dad, TikTok coach, dance extraordinaire. Wishing you all the very best, we’re proud of you girl. Love you!”
