Singer Alesha Dixon is reportedly being tipped to stand in for Tess Daly on the upcoming series of 'Strictly Come Dancing'.

According to the Sunday Mirror, the show's bosses are considering signing the former winner of the show to cover presenting duties during Daly's maternity leave.

A source said: "Bosses hope that she will help give the show a bit of a shake-up alongside Bruce Forsyth."

"They have been keen for her to have a role on the show for some time but so far have struggled to find an opportunity to bring her in. But Tess's pregnancy is the perfect opening."

Daly is due to give birth to her second child in June.
