- Zoe Ball 2/1 favourite to replace Claudia Winkleman as Strictly presenter.
- Janette Manrara and Fleur East follow at 3/1 in the betting.
- Dani Dyer’s withdrawal sees Lewis Cope 5/2 favourite for Strictly 2025 Glitterball Trophy.
Who Could Replace Claudia Winkleman?
Strictly Come Dancing faces the possibility of a presenting shake-up after reports in the Express suggested Claudia Winkleman may step down from her role alongside Tess Daly.
Bookmakers have already priced up the market, with Zoe Ball emerging as 2/1 favourite.
Ball previously hosted Strictly spin-off It Takes Two, giving her both the experience and credibility to step seamlessly into the role.
Close behind are current It Takes Two presenters Janette Manrara and Fleur East, both priced at 3/1.
Manrara’s long history on the show as a professional dancer could give her an edge with viewers, while East’s charisma and presenting experience makes her another strong contender.
