Former EastEnders star Nigel Harman is reportedly set to join the Strictly Come Dancing line-up for 2023, marking his 50th birthday with a glamorous challenge.
The 49-year-old actor played Dennis Rickman on the BBC soap and has since made guest appearances on Casualty. With the next series only two months away, several other famous names are also said to be joining the long-running ballroom competition, including an I'm A Celeb winner, a TV chef, and a controversial former This Morning host.
A source told Mail Online: “He is among the first to confirm and he turns 50 this summer so it is a challenge of his own, too. The line-up is going to be a great mix.”
Former Emmerdale actor Adam Thomas has also been rumoured to join the show, and he previously joked that he wanted to experience the infamous 'Strictly Curse', despite being married. The term is used to describe when celebrities end up in romantic relationships with their professional dance partners.
The Sun reported that Adam said: “Bring it all on. I love a bit of glitz and glam. I just want to experience the Strictly curse.”
Adam, 34, has been married to his long-term girlfriend Caroline Daly since 2017 and they have two children together.
It is unclear whether Nigel and Adam's representatives have commented on the rumours, but BBC declined to comment when contacted by The Agency.
Strictly Come Dancing is set to return to BBC One later this year, with many fans excited to see what the new series has in store. With the line-up allegedly including a former EastEnders star, an I'm A Celeb winner, and an Emmerdale actor, it promises to be an entertaining series.
