Former Strictly pro Erin Boag predicts Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall could join the show in 2025.
A former Strictly pro has tipped one royal couple for the BBC dancefloor in 2025. Erin Boag , who won the Glitterball trophy with Olympic hurdler Colin Jackson in 2006, reckons viewers could be treated to an appearance by Zara Tindall and husband Mike when the show returns at the end of 2025 for its 21st series. They wouldn't be the first couple to take a spin at the same time as Gabby and Kenny Logan did it in 2007.

But he was also known for his bulk. Then you get somebody like Austin Healey, and Matt Dawson did it well. They both played winger and because they're known for their nimbleness and they're small, they were both phenomenal. The Tindalls would be great.' Erin also backs former Christmas special partner Barry McGuigan - who recently won the hearts of viewers with his own turn in the I’m A Celeb jungle - to take on the full series, reminding fans he would ‘know how to train’ and is still ‘very fit’ despite being in his 60s. Erin said: 'I’d love Barry McGuigan to take part for the whole series, he only did the Christmas special . He threw me around, he was a strong ma
