Strictly star addresses Dani Dyer ‘comeback’ ahead of 2026 series

Strictly Come Dancing’s Nikita Kuzmin has addressed Dani Dyer’s potential “comeback” for the upcoming season. Last year, professional dancer Kuzmin was partnered with the 29-year-old reality TV star. However, before the first week of the competition, Dyer had to pull out after she broke her ankle. Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday (26 May), the dancer was grilled on reports that Dyer is keen to return. “I don't know. I mean, I wish I would know. But, guys, we honestly don't know anything,” said Kuzmin, who ended up in the 2025 final with replacement partner Amber Davies.
