Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly leave Strictly Come Dancing and are replaced on the show. According to reports, the changes take effect after Winkleman steps down at the end of 2025. Emma Willis is named as the incoming host, alongside Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe.
The coverage focuses on the transition between long-running presenters and the new line-up. The Mirror highlights Winkleman’s brief public reaction, describing it as a one-word comment about the Strictly replacement story. The Manchester Evening News provides more context on why both Daly and Winkleman exit, and summarises what they and others have said about the new hosts. Across outlets, the core point remains consistent: the presenter duo is no longer part of the show, and the hosting format moves to Emma Willis with Widdicombe and Radebe.
