Professional dancer Johannes Radebe has now addressed speculation this week that he's preparing to quit Strictly Come Dancing at the end of the latest series. Johannes, 37, has become a fan favourite on the BBC show since joining the line-up of dancers in 2018. He's partnered with Gladiators star Montell Douglas , 38, this year and they're among the remaining pairs in the competition.
Earlier this week, there were reports that Johannes is planning to leave Strictly next year to pursue other opportunities. It comes following the news that he will lead the cast of Kinky Boots: the Musical on its UK and Ireland tour from January to July, and he's also thought to be working on a film adaptation of his memoir , JoJo: Finally Home. Johannes has now addressed the speculation in a post on Instagram , with him dismissing the suggestion that he's set to leave the BBC show.
Alongside a screenshot of an article referencing the speculation, he wrote to his followers: "I'm not going nowhere! The story isnt true - I love @bbcstrictly and I want to do this beautiful show for as long as they want me - and the body will allow. I have Kinky Boots and other work in the pipeline yes but nothing will take me away. Love you all Jojo Xx.
