In July, it was reported that the professional dancers face a six-week lockdown ahead of the hit BBC show’s return.
Speaking to The Sun about the so-called “curse”, Horwood said: “I think it’s going to be more intense, isn’t it?”
Across its 17 seasons, the reality show has acquired a reputation for pairing celebrities and professional dancers who later become romantically involved.
The host pointed out that this season’s partners could end up “in a lockdown situation with each other”.
