Actress and singer Molly Rainford - also known for Britain's Got Talent - joins the lineup for Strictly Come Dancing.

Actress and singer Molly Rainford has been announced as the 10th celebrity in the Strictly Come Dancing lineup for 2022.

The 21-year-old joins a growing group of famous faces preparing to compete that also includes Ellie Simmonds, Will Mellor, Kym Marsh and Matt Goss.

Rainford first shot to fame as an 11-year-old in 2012 as the youngest ever finalist on Britain's Got Talent and she has since gone on to play the lead role in CBBC's Nova Jones.

"I'm so excited to be part of Strictly Come Dancing," she said.

"I've watched it for years and can't wait to meet the pros and the others taking part! I can't wait to learn the moves and get dancing!"

The new series begins on BBC One next month.
