A little early to start this thread, although the new judge to replace Darcey Bussell has been announced

It's Motsi Mabuse (sister of Oti Mabusi)

 

Motsi Mabuse, elder sister of Strictly Come Dancing star Oti, has been named as Dame Darcey Bussell's replacement on the BBC One show's judging panel.

Originally from South Africa, Motsi is a former South African champion and German Latin champion and a judge on Strictly Come Dancing's German version.

Mabuse, 38, said she was "absolutely overjoyed" to be joining the panel and hoped to "add her own bit of sparkle".

I don't doubt her credentials at all but can't help wondering how this will work as Oti is still appearing on the show?

Born Emma McQuiston and her mother married a Nigerian oil magnate...way to go, eh? thumbsup

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Thynn,_Viscountess_Weymouth

 

She and Viscount Weymouth announced their engagement in November 2012. They were married at Longleat House, the family estate in Wiltshire, on 8 June 2013.  Upon her marriage McQuiston became Viscountess Weymouth. The wedding ceremony was not attended by the groom's parents, Alexander Thynn, 7th Marquess of Bath and Anna Gyarmathy. His father boycotted the ceremony after a feud with the Viscount over changes made at Longleat. His mother was banned from the ceremony by the Viscount after repeatedly making racist remarks regarding McQuiston.

One day will become a Marchioness...

 

Who knew?
