Strictly star Stacey Dooley might be tearing up the dance floor every weekend with her pro dance partner Kevin Clifton but she has announced that he will not be joining her on the tour.
The 31-year-old journalist has said that she is sad that Kevin will not be with her but that she is excited about dancing with someone new.
However, she is set to take to the floor with fan favourite Aljaz Skorjanec, who was teamed up with Kate Silverton this series.
She said, "I will miss Kev, but I am looking forward to putting Aljaz through his paces.''
She continued, "I'm loving this experience so much. I know people always say that, but it's so true. To be able to go on tour and perform for the fans all over the UK is such an honour. I'm so excited!"
Kevin is not able to atke part in the tour due to other work commitments as he is taking on the role of Stacee Jaxx on the Rock of Ages tour from January until April.
Others joining Stacey on the tour are Dr Ranj Singh and Janette Manrara and Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell.
Dr Ranj said, "From the sequins to the sashays, I have loved my Strictly journey, so to join the Live Tour is beyond exciting.
Joe added, "I'm loving every minute of Strictly, so continuing my journey into 2019 is going to be brilliant. I can't wait to get quick stepping at arenas all over the UK."
There will be 29 shows from January 18, 2019, with more names to be announced.
We can't wait.
