'I’ve watched and loved the show for years. For me, it’s one of TV’s crown jewels.'

According to The Mirror, Ore has been given special permission to take time out of his ‘Strictly’ rehearsal schedule with partner Joanne Clifton to take on the role.

Ore was a guest on ‘This Morning’ earlier this month, and couldn’t hide his love for the show after his appearance.

He said: “Tried to play it cool on air... Now we’re done, can I just say I love ‘This Morning’. Thanks for having me.”

Ore was one of the six celebrities to survive the latest ‘Strictly’ elimination this weekend, which saw Greg Rutherford lose out to Claudia Fragapane in the dance off.

‘This Morning’ airs weekdays at 10.30am on ITV.
