Who is Tayce as she dances with Kai Widdrington for Strictly's Christmas special


Strictly Come Dancing has announced its first ever drag queen will be taking to the dance floor for the Christmas special, with RuPaul's Drag Race's Tayce having signed up for the BBC show

The 30 year old Welsh radio presenter and model, who was a runner-up on the second series of Drag Race, will be paired with professional dancer Kai Widdrington, winner of the 2022 Strictly festive spin-off. Michelle Visage, known for her role as a judge on RuPaul's Drag Race UK, graced the Strictly Come Dancing floor in 2019, teaming up with Giovanni Pernice and waving goodbye as the eighth celebrity to exit the competition. Tayce appeared on RuPaul's Drag Race UK season two, alongside the likes of A'Whora, Bimini Bon Boulash, Lawrence Chaney and Ellie Diamond.
