Next Strictly Come Dancing Presenter Odds: Fleur East Favourite
Will Jackson 
Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman shocked the showbiz world when they announced that this series would be their last presenting Strictly Come Dancing, leaving speculation rife over the identity of their replacements.
UK betting sites have already set up markets with the next Strictly Come Dancing presenter odds as celebrities vie for one of the most coveted roles in UK showbusiness.
Free Bets have taken a look at the latest markets and who is tipped to replace the duo.
Latest Strictly Come Dancing Presenter Odds
| Presenter | Odds |
| Fleur East | 5/2 |
| Hannah Waddingham | 7/2 |
| Zoe Ball | 4/1 |
| Janette Manrara | 9/2 |
| Rylan Clark | 9/2 |
Fleur East
Runner-up in the X Factor in 2014, Fleur East has been on the scene for more than a decade now but has gradually moved into more of a presenting role, rather than a performing one.
She is currently the bookies favourite to be one of the replacements, mainly thanks to her three years on Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, where she co-presents alongside Janette Manrara.
Given that Winkleman was one of the presenters from its conception before moving onto the main show, it would make sense to follow a similar trajectory, and East is well-placed to do that.
She is a former contestant having finished second in 2022 and also has a number one hit to her name, so she certainly has the credentials and background to flourish in the role.
Hannah Waddingham
Hannah Waddingham has quickly become something of a national treasure in some circles, having shot into mainstream of the nation's consciousness with acting roles in Ted Lasso and Game of Thrones.
She was also notably a co-presenter during the Eurovision Song Contest in 2023 when hosted in the UK, and thrived on live TV while also showing off her impressive vocal range that has seen her star on stage in musicals.
Having also hosted the Olivier Awards in 2023 and 2024, she would be a safe pair of hands and would have a strong appeal to avid Strictly followers.
She does not have any previous links to Strictly Come Dancing, but ticks pretty much every other box.
Zoe Ball
Zoe Ball is a long-time Strictly associate, having appeared as a contestant way back in 2005.
However it is as a host of It Takes Two where she really settled in, taking over when Winkleman departed in 2011 and hosting until 2021, when she left after 10 years.
She also stepped in as a guest presenter for 2014 when Winkleman was absent for personal reasons, and hosted the live tour for a number of years too, so there would be no issues with giving her the gig on a full-time basis.
It would be interesting to see where the directors of the show want to take it however. At 53, Ball is younger than Tess Daly but older than Claudia Winkleman - are we more likely to see some fresh blood to put a bit more energy into the show?
Janette Manrara
Janette Manrara currently co-hosts It Takes Two with Fleur East, so it would be no real surprise to see the duo step up and continue their double-act on the main show.
She is a very familiar figure to fans, having appeared as one of the professional dancers in eight seasons before taking up her role on It Takes Two after quitting being a dancer.
We have seen in the past that they are happy to move the dancers into other roles - Anton Du Beke is now a judge - so it would not be out of the question to see Janette moved onto the main show, and even interview husband Aljaz Skorjanec, who is another professional dancer on the show.
Rylan Clark
Viewers need no introduction to Rylan, who it feels as though has done just about every reality TV show and presenting gig going at this stage.
He is one of the people who has had a go at It Takes Two, holding the role for four years before stepping down in 2023, so he is no stranger to the Strictly family.
He did attract controversy for comments made on This Morning recently however, so the timing of it may not come at the best moment for Rylan or the BBC, but otherwise you could bank on him being a popular appointment.
