JLS star JB Gill has the perfect pad to kick back and relax in during breaks from his intense Strictly Come Dancing rehearsals after his spot on the show was revealed. The Everybody In Love hitmaker will be able to retreat to his plush £2million farmhouse in Kent which is surrounded by glorious 13-acre paddocks. There's also an outdoor swimming pool, stables and a cinema and recent proposals for a significant expansion of his idyllic countryside pad could soon include an "entertainment suite" and gym.

JB's country pile has previously been likened to a "Grand Designs style" pad courtesy of its epic scale and interiors and he is likely to need his home comforts due to Strictly's intense schedule. The She Makes Me Wanna Vocalist was revealed as the third star for the 2024 line-up during an appearance on ITV daytime series This Morning on Monday. The X Factor finalist said: “I danced in the Strictly Christmas special over a decade ago and loved it, so when I got the call to join Strictly this year, it was an immediate yes from me.
