Strictly Come Dancing pro Johannes Radebe hits back at ‘lies’ – confirms he’s not quitting

As a seasoned cinephile with a penchant for dance and a soft spot for Strictly Come Dancing, I find myself both relieved and delighted by Johannes Radebe’s assurance that he’s not going anywhere. Having followed his journey since his debut in 2018, I can attest to the electric energy he brings to the ballroom and the genuine camaraderie he shares with his celebrity partners.

Contrary to speculations, Johannes Radebe, one of the skilled dancers on Strictly Come Dancing, has refuted rumors suggesting his departure from the popular show, as a fresh episode is scheduled for broadcast this coming Saturday.

Reports indicate that Johannes is stepping down from the show due to his packed schedule, as confirmed by a source who added, “There’s no ill will towards Johannes; he’s adored on the show, and everyone understands his reasons for departing.

It’s likely that supervisors will strive to rehire him eventually, and he might well entertain the idea of coming back.

At present, I find myself with a multitude of tasks to manage along with the competition. It’s not only about the projects I’ve already announced; there are additional prospects in the works as well, providing me with new avenues to delve deeper into.

In his post, Johannes expressed that he’s not planning on leaving anywhere because the story isn’t true – he adores @bbcstrictly and desires to be a part of the captivating show for as long as they need him, and his body permits. He has other projects like Kinky Boots in progress, but nothing will entice him away. He sends love to everyone. Jojo Xx.

The message was posted alongside a video, in which Johannes is seen singing in the studio, adding in that he’s “going nowhere” and that “it’s a lie”.

I’m thrilled to share that over the next few months, I have some exciting milestones lined up! Firstly, I’ll be embarking on my musical theatre debut in the UK tour of Kinky Boots – a truly wonderful experience I can hardly wait for! Additionally, I’ll be immersed in the film adaptation of my memoir, JoJo: Finally Home. It’s an honor to bring these stories to life in new ways, and I look forward to every moment of this incredible journey.

Since his debut in 2018, Johannes has consistently graced the stage on Strictly Come Dancing, partnering stars such as Catherine Tyldesley, Caroline Quentin, John Whaite, Ellie Taylor, and Annabel Croft during their performances.

This year, he’s teamed up with Montell Douglas, and they’ve been regularly placing high on the scoreboard.

More recently, they earned a score of 35 with their rendition of “I Will Always Love You” by Whitney Houston (Waltz version), finishing fourth in the competition.
