Actress Lacey Turner Joins Strictly Come Dancing 2026: New Season Updates and Changes Revealed
Actress Lacey Turner, best known for her role in EastEnders, has been confirmed as a contestant on the upcoming season of Strictly Come Dancing 2026. This announcement comes earlier than usual, as the show typically reveals its cast in the summer before the season airs in the Autumn and Winter. The BBC program has undergone significant changes this year, with five professional dancers leaving the show, including popular names like Gorka Marquez and Karen Hauer.
Lacey Turner joins a long list of soap stars who have traded their roles on screen for a spot on the Strictly dancefloor. She expressed her excitement about participating in the show, stating that she is a huge fan and is looking forward to learning a new skill. The actress will be joined by other celebrities who will be announced throughout the summer as part of the show's lineup.
In addition to changes in the celebrity lineup, Strictly Come Dancing has also seen a shift in its presenters. Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman have stepped down from their hosting duties, and Emma Willis, Josh Widdecombe, and Johannes Radebe have been revealed as their replacements. This season promises to bring new energy and excitement to the popular dance competition.
