Will Mellor says he is ‘terrified’ about joining Strictly Come Dancing

Will Mellor revealed he is “terrified” about joining Strictly Come Dancing after he was named as the first contestant in the new series.

Actress Kym Marsh and DJ Richie Anderson have since joined Mellor in the line-up for the 2022 series of the dancing competition.
