Strictly magical! Our 13th celebrity reveal is... The Lovely Debbie McGee!
The 13th celebrity to be announced on our Strictly Mega Monday is TV personality, presenter and wife to the late Paul Daniels, Debbie McGee!
“There are no words to describe how I feel about performing on Strictly Come Dancing," Debbie said. "The excitement is overwhelming. I can’t stop smiling. It’s been the hardest secret I have ever had to keep!”
She achieved national and international fame through television appearances with Paul and appeared alongside him in the BBC One series The Paul Daniels Magic Show which ran from 1979 to 1994. Her late husband, Paul was also a contestant on Strictly back in 2008.
Debbie's career has spanned the widest range of show business genres; including classical ballet, cabaret, theatre and films and in 2008, she added the role of Radio DJ to her already glittering CV, presenting her own Sunday morning show on BBC Radio Berkshire.
We can't wait to see the sprinkle of magic dust Debbie will add to her dances!
