Strictly Come Dancing’s Johannes Radebe delighted fans earlier by revealing he and Annabel Croft will be getting ‘another chance’ to dance together. 

He and Annabel - who was his celebrity dancing partner in 2023’s series - will be reuniting to perform together during Johannes’ upcoming live tour.

After the popular couple made it to the semi-final of last year’s competition, fans were disappointed when scheduling conflicts meant that Annabel couldn’t dance with Johannes during the Strictly Come Dancing 2024 live tour.

But now, after Johannes revealed via his social media that he and Annabel will be returning to the dancefloor together during his upcoming London shows, he’s given fans a first look at the behind the scenes preparations going into all of his shows later this year.

“Back in the room… preparations are underway, looking forward to welcoming you all to the HOUSE OF JOJO,” he shared on Instagram.

“This made my heart beat a little bit faster. Cannot. Wait. To. See. You!!” one fan wrote. “3 weeks and 4 days until I enter the House of Jojo and I cannot wait,” another person said. “This is going to be incredible! Welcome back Johannes, we’ve missed you.”

Speaking on the social media platform about his and Annabel’s reunion, the professional dancer gushed: “For one night only (and the matinee) the wonderful @annabel_croft will be joining my show at The London Palladium on the 4th May for a very special performance.

“Another chance to dance with my darling friend at a theatre I have been dreaming of performing at since I started touring. Buzzing,” he added.

Since the news was released, fans have flocked to the star’s Instagram announcement’s comments section to share their appreciation for the news. “Amazing ! I have my ticket already and never expected to see this. I’m thrilled to bits,” said one person. 

”I CANNOT WAIT” another penned, before adding slightly more calmly, “This is going to be magical.” “How marvellous,” a third person said. “I am over the moon to have tickets for the matinee and evening performances! So excited.”
