Olympic gold medallist Tabby Stoecker has joined the starry line-up of Strictly Come Dancing 2026.
The hotly anticipated series returns to BBC One this autumn, and Stoecker becomes the 13th celebrity to join the cast.
Stoecker is a highly decorated Team GB skeleton athlete, who famously won gold at the 2026 Winter Olympic Games.
Despite only making her international debut in the sport five years ago, Stoecker's long list of accolades also includes being a World Cup race winner, a double World Championship medallist, a European Championship medallist, and many more.
Stoecker said in a statement: "I am over the moon to be joining the cast of Strictly 2026. I’ve had the wildest year of my life so far, so to be rounding it off with a childhood dream of dancing in the Strictly ballroom is surreal and I can’t wait to get stuck in!"
The news of Stoecker's casting was announced via social media, with judge Motsi Mabuse welcoming her to the Strictly family, along with fellow celebrity contestant Jaime Winstone sharing supportive emojis in the comments.
The Olympian joins the previously announced Lacey Turner, Dani Dyer, Delta Goodrem, Chris Appleton, Cach Mercer, Will Best, Dame Sarah Storey, Jaime Winstone, Bethany Antonia, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Graeme Hall and Lawrence Robb.
This leaves just two more celebrities to be announced as the hit series makes its return next month.
This year marks a major refresh for the long-running programme, with new hosts Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe at the helm.
Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One and iPlayer later this year.
