Love Island star spotted at Elstree studios as Strictly rehearsals begin
It comes as someone posted on the Strictly Come Dancing Reddit page: 'My daughter's a receptionist at Elstree and was super excited that she saw Danni Dyer at the studio yesterday. Something to do with strictly??'
This person responded: 'She is rumoured actually! I guess she will be on it, she'll be good.
'She was also rumoured to take part in celeb SAS tho (edit: the one that films for next year) guess she's deciding which to do.'
Another commented: 'i've heard her name floating around so thats brill news x'
All the winners over the years
One chimed in: 'Last year the celebs did their costume fittings before they were announced, so it's possible she could be at elstree for that.'
Meanwhile, this viewer shared: 'So exciting it's that time of the year again!!!!'
Last month, the Love Island star was just one name thrown into the rumour mill as a source previously told The Sun: 'Bosses are thrilled she's agreed to take part and are ironing out her fee.
"She's bubbly, down-to-earth and straight-talking and producers reckon she'll make an ideal contestant - not to mention the bonus of having Jarrod and dad Danny in the audience supporting her."

Love Island star caught snubbing finalist and ‘ignoring' her during live final – but did you spot it?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN ex Love Islander appeared to brutally snub one of the show's finalists during the show's live episode. During the final, all of the former Islanders made one last comeback to the villa to watch the champion be crowned. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island fans noticed that one ex Islander appeared to snub Yasmin Credit: Eroteme 4 Helena could be seen chatting away as she failed to listen to Yasmin's interview In a surprising result, fan-favourites Yasmin and Jamie found themselves finishing in third place being beaten by Shakira and Harry in second place and eventual winners, Toni and Cach. However, one former Islander appeared to totally dismiss Yasmin and Jamie as they could be seen chatting away throughout the couple's interview with host Maya Jama. Helena appeared distracted as she 'ignored' what Yasmin had to say and instead caught up with fourth place star Angel in full view of the cameras. Each time the shot focused on Maya, Helena could be seen speaking to her co-star as she failed to listen in to what Yasmin had to say. Noticing their antics online, one fan questioned: "What is Helena and Angel talking about." Before someone else echoed: "All I could see behind Maya was angel and Helena chatting away the whole time during yaz and Jamie's interview." It added further fuel to the fire about the long-standing girls divide this year. Helena had failed to see eye-to-eye with Yasmin, Shakira or Toni during her time in the villa as two rival girl groups quickly emerged. Along with Meg and Megan, Helena had clashes with the other three villa girls throughout but it seemed they had the last laugh when they made up the top three spots. After weeks of coupling up, dumpings, texts and triangles, the series came to a close with a battle between Toni & Cach, Shakira Khan & Harry Cooksley, Angel Swift & Ty Isherwood and Yasmin Pettet & Jamie Rhodes. Watch Love Island's Harrison roll his eyes and fake clap after ex Toni makes savage dig about him in live final However, it was the show's first American bombshell Toni and dancer Cach who got the most votes from fans after their rollercoaster journey on the show. Thrilled fans praised the result, with one saying: "I actually feel like I've won the World Cup. This is actually everything to me! "Seeing Megan and Dejon dumped, Angel fourth place, Yas, Shakira and Toni top 3, Toni and Cach win. Suddenly life is feeling real again." Someone else added: "Toni got the last laugh. A win and a nice man to take home. Bet Harrison is gutted. Karma is a b***h." Another added: "Toni being American and winning, iconic!!! And thank you Cach for being so amazing and loving. Well deserved." 4 Every time the camera cut to Maya she could be seen in deep conversation

Love Island host Maya Jama shares true feelings over Shakira and Harry reunion
Love Island 2025's Harry was surprised to hear what host Maya Jama really thought of him and Shakira reuniting and making it to the final after recent comments on the series Love Island host Maya Jama wasted no time in telling runners-up Shakira and Harry what she really thought of their romance during the live final on Monday night. The pair have been on and off and in multiple triangles throughout the series. But in the last week or so, the Love Island pair reconciled against all odds and seemed to be in it for good this time. Despite dividing viewers and co-stars with their latest reunion, host Maya surprised Harry with what she had to say on Monday. The presenter gave her true thoughts on the pair, having called out Harry for his behaviour towards Helena and others in a previous episode. It comes as Toni and Cach were announced as this year's winners, beating Shakira and harry to the prize money. Harry shared his shock though, as Maya admitted this time it felt different between them. Having seen clips of them together for the final week and the final day, she said watching them she could see it was genuine. She shared: "Well you both look very happy with each other. It's nice to see you two together in the final. You both look really... I dunno. The last couple of days I've been watching you like, this is cute. This is cute." Harry couldn't hide the shock on his face as he said: "Yeah? I never thought you'd say that to me, Maya." Agreeing, she replied: "I know, can you believe it? Me calling you cute. "But you are here in the final. There is obviously something the public have seen that is obviously giving love story." It comes as the All Stars series was confirmed to return to ITV2 and ITVX for a third series in 2026. Speaking on the renewal, Mike Spencer-Hayter, Creative Director at Lifted Entertainment, said: 'Love Island: All Stars has quickly established itself as a stand-alone hit, keeping fans of the show gripped by iconic Islanders from the past 10 years returning for another chance to find love. "We are very excited about series 3 and you can expect the twists and turns to continue in All Stars, after an incredible smash hit summer series.' The second series of Love Island: All Stars aired earlier this year, and was won by Gabby Allen and Case O'Gorman. The series also saw the reunion of Ronnie Vint and Harriet Blackmore - but it didn't come without complaints. In February, the show lodged over 2,000 complaints to Ofcom in its final week, as fans fumed at various stars for their "bullying behaviour". On February 12, there were 1,347 complaints, followed by 820 on February 11, 63 on February 13 and 57 on February 16. The February 12 episode saw Ekin-Su and Elma clash over the latter's comment about Ekin-Su and Curtis having the weakest connection. Things only got worse between the group when Ekin-Su had kissed Sammy during the heart rate challenge. During the argument, an angry Elma swore at Ekin-Su and Curtis and told them to "shut their mouths".

Line Of Duty's Adrian Dunbar reveals cast 'waiting on BBC confirmation' for series 7
Line of Duty star Adrian Dunbar has admitted he and his fellow cast mates are waiting for the BBC to give them the go ahead to start on the eagerly awaited seventh series A Line Of Duty icon has confessed that the cast are waiting for the go-ahead for the new series of the new series. It appears the stars of the hit series are eagerly waiting, like fans, for the next instalment after it was confirmed the BBC show would return for a seventh series. The 66-year-old star who plays the part of Superintendent Ted Hastings in the drama admitted that he and fellow cast members Martin Compston and Vicky McClure are a tight-knit group. And he said that while the trio are all keen to get back on set, they are simply waiting for the BBC to give them the nod. It comes after it was confirmed that creator Jed Mercurio had been working on a new script four years on from the dramatic series six finale. Sheridan Smith unrecognisable in first look at harrowing true-crime drama "There were signs that we were going to be doing something next year," Adrian recently told the Radio Times. "We're all waiting for the BBC to say, 'Yeah, it's happening.' "An official confirmation is what we're waiting on, but all the signs are very good. Jed hasn't given us any updates – he's beavering away, I suspect.' He added that Jed likes to keep the cast on their toes and admitted that Vicky usually gets the scripts first. He claimed that due to her speedy reading, she'd often tease the others by sending cryptic messages about the plot. Adrian has starred alongside Vicky and Martin amongst a host of others on what has became the broadcaster's highest-rated drama series in almost 20 years when it initially aired. At the end of series six, the master villain of the series was unmasked as Detective Superintendent Ian Buckells, played by Nigel Boyle. However, at the time some fans were disappointed by the reveal. Now, with more crime-fuelled drama on the horizon, it's expected to erupt once again. Christina Chong, who plays DI Nicola Rogerson, previously revealed she was contacted about reprising her role. She told the Daily Mail: 'So I have been asked about a season, is it seven? Yeah. Potentially, Nicola Rogerson will be back for season 7.' And while Vicky may not be filming the new series just yet, she is certainly keeping herself busy. She recently released her first ever music song as she sang alongside Jon McClure and Reverend and the Makers. Taking to Twitter /X last month, the band excitedly wrote: "ANNOUNCEMENT KLAXON. Absolutely buzzing to announce we have a new single about to drop featuring, on lead vocals for the first time ever, the living legend @Vicky_McClure ' (plus a bit on @jonathanowen71 on bass) "The video also features another living legend so stay tuned for that. Let's have some love for Vicky the singer eh?" Vicky then reshared the post to her own page and commented: "First for everything! No one cooler to do it with! @Reverend_Makers," followed by three red love heart emojis.
