Don't be too disappointed that Race Across the World is coming to an end next week as Celebrity Race Across the World is coming back later this year. Rumours have been swirling about who the four teams taking on the BBC show challenge are. So far the rumoured teams are: Strictly couple Molly Rainford and Tyler West as well as siblings Roman Kemp and his sister Harley, plus Dylan Llewellyn. It's not yet known who the other two pairings could be. There are always four pairs on the celebrity edition as there is no elimination round. Last year's competitors included: winners Scott Mills and his husband Sam, Kelly Brook and her husband Jeremy Parisi, Jeff Brazier and his son Freddy as well as Kola Bokinni and his cousin Mary-Ellen. GMB weatherman Alex Beresford and his dad Noel won the first version of the celebrity show that aired in 2023. They were competing against siblings Billy Monger and his sister Bonny, Mel Blatt and her mum, as well as Harry Judd and his mum. Derry Girls star Dylan Llewellyn is being tipped for Celebrity Race Across the World, according to The Sun. The Beyond Paradise star, who plays sweet Kelby on the BBC show, would be swapping acting and learning lines for an adventure. It would take him to different corners of the world. Although his name has been leaked, it is not known who could be his possible partner for the trip of a lifetime. We can't wait to find out more! Couple Molly Rainford and Tyler West are believed to be starring in the Celebrity Race Across the World 2025 line-up. They first fell in love when they first set eyes on each other on the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom. They were competing celebrities on the 2022 series. Their relationship will be tested to the limits on Race Across the World where they will have to budget and plan the best route together. They have already taken their relationship to the next level as they moved in with each other last year. Last year, Rainford told MailOnline of their relationship: "We are good and going strong and are actually moving in together. We're just going through, you know dining tables and sofas and all that kind of stuff, it's exciting." West added: "Yeah, adult life is real! Molly's turned into a whole interior designer. So I'm just taking a complete back seat. She's just like, "What do you think about this?" You've got Pintrest boards going so it's great." Roman Kemp and his older sister Harleymoon are also believed to be lined up for Celebrity Race Across the World. The siblings grew up in the limelight together, with famous parents Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp and Wham! band member, Shirlie Holliman. As teenagers they would often be on the glamorous red carpets for the stars with their mum and dad. They both followed their parents footsteps into the spotlight. Harleymoon became a singer releasing her first song Space in 2020 while Kemp made waves on the radio. Despite appearances, Kemp detailed his struggles of feeling like he didn't fit in with his family. "I really upset my mum recently, because I said that sometimes I feel like I don't fit in with our family," he told The Guardian in January 2025. "I go back home and my dad will be on the piano, my sister will be singing, my mum's taking videos and pictures. And I just want to be on my own. I'm not… embarrassed by it, but that form of extroversion is not really me." In April last year, Kemp quit his Capital breakfast radio show after eight year but he has continued with building his profile in the showbiz world.
