Strictly Come Dancing presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman have announced they will be leaving the show.

The pair made the announcement in a joint video shared on social media, saying they will enjoy the rest of the “amazing” current series before bowing out together and passing on “the very sparkly baton” to new hosts.

“After 21 unforgettable years, the time has come to say goodbye to Strictly Come Dancing,” Daly wrote in a post on Instagram.

“Strictly has always been about joy, celebration and bringing people together – and I’m so proud to have played a small part in something that continues to mean so much to so many.”

Winkleman also shared her own statement, saying: “I’ve always believed it’s best to leave a party before you’re fully ready to go, and I know the new hosts will be magnificent.

“I look forward to watching them take Strictly to new heights.”

The 23rd series of Strictly began in September.
