Thank you!
Ronan Kemp and his sister, Harleymoon Kemp will be joining them.
Music clearly runs in the Kemp family – Ronan is a DJ with famous dad Martin Kemp who was the bassist in Spandau Ballet.
Harleymoon is musical too, she is a country singer and songwriter who is touring the UK this December.
A Strictly couple is also on the line up: BBC soap star Molly Rainford, 24, and KISS DJ Tyler West, 29.

They are the only couple on this year’s season.
The two fell in love when filming the 20th season of Strictly Come Dancing in 2022.
They got engaged in August this year when Tyler proposed to Molly on holiday in Mykonos, Greece.

A TV insider told The Sun: “Molly and Tyler are a huge coup for the show.
“They’re popular with millions of viewers from their stints on Strictly, and Molly will bring in loads of EastEnders fans too.
“They are a very adventurous pair and have brilliant chemistry, so bosses are confident they will become huge fan favourites.”
Molly has been enjoying the limelight for most of her life – before she was on EastEnders she rose to fame for her Britain’s got Talent performance at just 11 years old.
The other duo that will be on Celebrity Race Across the World 2025 are Strictly Come Dancing star Anita Rani, 47, and her Dad Bal.

Anita is a British broadcaster, television presenter and author.
You might recognise her from Countryfile, The One Show or Women’s Hour.
She has released two books, including her 2021 memoir ‘The Right Sort of Girl’.
Anita also reached the semi final of Strictly Come Dancing in 2015.
This will not be the first time Anita and her Father have shared the screen together – the two also appeared in a couple of episodes of Celebrity Gogglebox in 2020.
Who is Jackie Llewellyn?

The two are both immensely private people.
What we can gather is that they are family oriented pair and that Jackie has a lot of love for her springer spaniel, Bentley.
What can we expect from the pair on Celebrity Race Across the World?
In a recent interview with Scott Mills, Dylan and his Mum told us: “We were in tears of laughter sometimes,
“tears of sadness as well.”

Mills let Jackie know: “We are huge fans of your son,
“You must be so proud.”
Jackie beamed: “I can’t believe he’s my son!”
Scott Mills knows what it takes to be on Celebrity Race Across the World.
He and his husband Sam Vaughan won the second series of the show on day 30.

However, the show was not all good for Scott.
He revealed how ill he became on the show: “I started getting these mad headaches – I don’t get headaches – but I was getting really awful ones to the point where one day I said, “I can’t film today, I’m really sorry.
“Obviously, there was a medic there and he made sure I ate and that I had some tablets to try and get rid of it but it wouldn’t go for three days.”
He worried that it was dengue fever, an illness that was taking Brazil by storm at the time.
Sam asked him, “When was the last time you had a coffee?” which led Scott to realise he’d experienced a “massive caffeine withdrawal.”
Jackie and Dylan Llewellyn seem to feel similar, telling the Race Across the World official Instagram that their experience was full of “a lot of ups and downs”
BBC Radio 2 said “we just know that these two are going to be adorable together”
