Katie Price and Kerry Katona hint at huge show return as they call Strictly 'too snobby'

Katie Price and Kerry Katona have dismissed the idea of joining Strictly Come Dancing, claiming the BBC ballroom series is “too snobby” for them.

The long‑time friends, who first met in the late 1990s and became close after appearing together on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2004, are currently preparing for a nationwide tour this autumn.

While promoting the show, they reflected on their years in reality television and whether they might return to the jungle. It comes after Katie confessed that she has to use google maps to remind herself of her children's birthdays.

Katie, 47, said: “Oh they’d never ask me. I didn’t win it or anything. I mean, if I got offered the jungle, I doubt I would because I’ve done it twice. But if I did, it’s the best show to do, I think.”

Kerry, 43, who won I’m A Celebrity in 2004, said she would be open to going back. “I’d do it. Again, it’s another adventure. I love the jungle,” she said. Katie added: “That’s what I mean - it is a good show.”

The pair joked that between them, they have ticked off nearly every major reality format. “Both me and Kate have done every reality show,” Kerry said. “We’re the reality queens. We’re part of TV history. When we did I’m A Celebrity, the ratings were the highest they’d ever had, and we were a part of that."

However, there is one they haven’t attempted and that's BBC's Strictly Come Dancing. Kerry said: “The only one we’ve not done is Strictly.”

“They would never have us,” Katie replied. “They’re too snobby - Strictly for us.”

Despite that, both admitted they would like the chance. “I would love to do Strictly, I’m not going to lie,” Katie said. To which Kerry agreed: “I would love to do Strictly.” Katie then teased her friend: “But you can actually dance, so you’d be good at it.”

Kerry recalled her time on Dancing on Ice, calling it “a great adventure” and “a great memory”, but Strictly remains an unfulfilled ambition.

The pair’s upcoming tour, An Evening with Katie Price and Kerry Katona, will take them to 33 dates across the UK this autumn. The idea came after the success of their double act as Cinderella’s stepsisters in an adult pantomime.

The tour will see the two share stories from their careers, answer audience questions and offer fans an unfiltered look into their lives after decades in the public eye.
