TV personality and singer Peter Andre is the seventh celebrity who will appear on Strictly Come Dancing 2015.
Peter described Strictly as “an incredible show” and said: “I’ve always loved watching it on TV and to be honest I’m flattered to have been asked to take part before, but due to certain work commitments was unable to.
“I now feel the time is right to give it a go – everything has just clicked into place to do it this year. Wish me luck please… argh!”
