The Traitors stars Harry Clark, Mollie Pearce and Paul Gorton are reportedly in contention for this year's Strictly Come Dancing.

Three stars from the most recent series of The Traitors are reportedly in contention for a place on this year's edition of Strictly Come Dancing.

The duplicitous reality show - hosted by Claudia Winkleman, who also co-hosts Strictly - is one of the BBC's biggest hits in recent years, peaking with over 8 million viewers for the final episode of series two.

According to The Sun, producers are considering three contestants as possibilities - winner Harry Clark, runner-up Mollie Pearce and one of the most notorious Traitors, Paul Gorton.

"Strictly is still four months away and there's still so much to play for, but The Traitors are obviously at the forefront of everyone's mind," a source told the newspaper.

"It would also be a nice tie-in given both shows are hosted by Claudia Winkleman.

"Mollie's presence would also be a hugely positive moment of representation for people, like her, who have a disability.

"But, just as with The Traitors, she first has to fend off the competition from rivals Paul and Harry."

Other potential celebrities lined up for this year's Strictly are Bank of Dave star Dave Fishwick, boxer Tommy Fury, Olympic legend Laura Kenny and Gladiators' Nitro.
