There is set to be a big shake up in the new year when Dancing with the Stars returns.

Loraine Barry will be replaced as head judge by Oti Mabuse after Loraine confirmed her departure from the series.

Laura Fox will step in to present alongside Jennifer Zamparelli as Doireann Garrihy heads on maternity leave.

And Doireann has bid an emotional farewell, for now, to the dream job.

Sharing several behind the scene pictures, Doireann wrote: “The most important job I will ever do is about to start.

“So I’m going to temporarily hang up my heels from Doireann’s Den for DWTS 2026. I will be cheering on the cast and crew from the couch all Winter long.

“Thank you @dwtsirl @shinawil_ltd and @rteone for being so understanding as I take this step back to take it all in @foxylaura10 – knock ‘em dead as only you can. Mind my den and mind my Jen @jenzamparelli ! All my love, Doireann.”

We will definitely miss her. But it’s safe to say that Laura is raring to take on the role!


She shared a picture of herself and Jen, writing: “Here we go while @doireanngarrihy takes a well deserved break soaking up her baby bubble in the new year I’m so buzzing to say I’ll be keeping her sequins warm on this years @dwtsirl

“We all know I love the show and I adored being on it and now I get to do it all again except this time I don’t have the fear of getting the boot every week let’s get those heels on @jenzamparelli.”

Roll on January!
