Strictly Come Dancing stars beam as they arrive for rehearsals in London
The cohort of Strictly Come Dancing 2023 stars - including Ellie Leach, Zara McDermott, and Angela Rippon - are finally in the dance studio as they begin practicing their moves ahead of the new series kicking off.
The stars arrived in London with beaming smiles on their faces, their comfy workout gear on, and suitcases in tow. Zara McDermott - who plans to be the 'sexiest ever contestant' with bold looks - looked effortlessly beautiful as she rocked up to rehearsals in a tiny pair of shorts and trainers.
Meanwhile, former professional tennis player Annabel Croft, who was the fourteenth celebrity confirmed for this year's Strictly line-up, showed up in a pair of olive green leggings and a matching vest top.
Coronation Street star Ellie Leach - best known for having played Faye Windass on the ITV soap - opted for a casual look as she arrived for rehearsals in a floaty white vest top and leggings. Gushing over her upcoming appearance on the BBC dance show, Leach recently said: “It still doesn’t feel real that I’m going to be doing Strictly!! It’s always been a dream of mine so I guess dreams really do come true!!!!”

The Sherlock star was the first celebrity to be announced for this year's Strictly. The actress, 49, has starred in Mr Selfridge, Wolfe, and Desperate Measures as well as in various plays in well-renowned theatres across the country.
Amanda Abbington said: “I’m thrilled to have been asked to do Strictly. I’m actually really shy and self-conscious so this will be a great opportunity for me to overcome those things! Plus, I get to learn to dance which I am incredibly excited about. I’m really looking forward to the training too, I’m quite competitive as my family and friends will tell you. I can’t wait to start!”
