Gordon Ramsay's daughter Tilly is reportedly in talks to appear on this year's edition of Strictly Come Dancing.
The 18-year-old is following in her father's footsteps by forging a career as a TV chef/presenter and has hosted Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch for CBBC since 2015.
Despite the ongoing threat of the coronavirus pandemic, Strictly producers are ploughing ahead with plans to get the show on air as usual this autumn, and The Sun claims that Tilly is in the frame to appear in the lineup.
"Tilly is already popular with younger viewers from her shows on CBBC and bosses think she could bring that audience with her," a source told the newspaper.
"They've already seen Joe Sugg, Karim Zeroual and Saffron Barker bring in new fans to the show and they hope she could do the same.
"Tilly is keen to be a star in her own right, rather than just being known as Gordon's daughter, and Strictly could be a great way for her to come out of her father's shadow. They've spoken to her formally and said she can take part either this year or next. They've left the ball in her court."
Other names rumoured for this year's show include RuPaul Charles, Catherine Tate and Michelle Keegan.
