Strictly head judge Shirley Ballas recently revealed she is hesitant to return for the new series after suffering trolling during the last run.

She says: “I think the show would not be the same without her. When I think of Strictly, I think of Shirley.

“At the same time the show’s going to be successful, but I do feel a part of it would be missing without her.”

It comes after Saffron revealed she wants the chance to take part in I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! to prove she’s not a “dumb blonde”.

She said at the time: “People assume I’m a young, dumb blonde – I get that all the time. And so I enjoy proving I’m not the sort of person people expect me to be.

“I would love to do I’m A Celebrity and go outside my comfort zone and challenge myself.”
