Strictly Come Dancing lovers Molly Rainford and Tyler West have signed up for Celebrity Race Across the World, according to reports. The EastEnders star, 24, and Kiss FM presenter, 29, who

met on the BBC dance show in 2022, are said to have already filmed the smash-hit series in which a bunch of plucky celebrities pit their wits against each other while navigating around the

globe. The last series of gruelling travel show, in which the rich and famous are not allowed to use mobile phones - or book flights - aired last August and saw stars, including Kelly Brook,

Scott Mills, Jeff Brazier and Kola Bokinni race across South America. Lifting the lid on the programme's latest recruits, a source said: "Molly and Tyler are a huge coup for the

show. They’re popular with millions of viewers from their stints on Strictly, and Molly will bring in loads of EastEnders fans too." READ MORE: Inside Karen Hauer and Kevin

confident they will become huge fan favourites.” When contacted by the Mirror about the reports, the BBC declined to comment. Molly and Tyler moved in together last year after meeting on

Strictly when Molly was paired with dance professional Carlos Gu and made it to the final, and Tyler was paired with Aussie, Dianne Buswell. It wasn't until the live tour earlier in

2023 that their relationship blossomed into something more, but since then, things have gone from strength to strength. Speaking to MailOnline, Molly said: "We are good and going strong

and are actually moving in together - we're just going through, you know dining tables and sofas and all that kind of stuff, it's exciting." Praising his partner for her

attention to detail, Tyler confessed: "Molly's turned into a whole interior designer so I'm just taking a complete back seat!" Tyler began his presenting career on CBBC

before being snapped up by Kiss FM for his very own show. Meanwhile, EastEnders star Molly, who was cast as Anna Knight - daughter of George Knight (Colin Salmon) and Cindy Beale (Michelle

Collins) - in the BBC soap in 2023, rose to fame for her performance on Britain's Got Talent when she was just 11 years old. Thanking media mogul Simon Cowell for kick-starting her

career, she took to Instagram, saying: "I did Britain's Got Talent in 2012 when I was 11 years old. "That definitely changed my life because after getting to the finals, I was

sponsored by Sony Music and Simon Cowell to go to the Sylvia Young theatre school. From those auditions throughout school, I got into the CBBC world." The actress also has a famous

dad, who many fans are just finding out about. Molly's father is former footballer Dave Rainford. The 46-year-old began his career at Colchester United as a teenager in 1997 before

playing for Slough Town, Heybridge Swift, Bishop's Stortford and AFC Hornchurch. The midfielder signed with Chelmsford City in 2008 before becoming their assistant manager in 2012. He

hung up his boots in 2014, but now holds a senior position with the Premier League, serving as its head of education and academy player care. _LIKE THIS STORY? FOR MORE OF THE LATEST SHOWBIZ
