Emma Willis Confirms Return to Love Is Blind UK

Emma Willis' future on hit dating show UK has been revealed after she landed the Come Dancing hosting job alongside Josh Widdecombe and . 

The TV presenter, who presents the series alongside her husband Matt, 43, was revealed as one of the new faces of the dance competition last week. 

Now, it's been confirmed that Emma, 50, who has previously hosted the likes of Big Brother and UK, will still appear on Love Is Blind. 

Despite stepping into the role that was previously held by and on Saturday and Sunday nights on BBC One, Emma will continue to film alongside Matt over on the streaming service. 

The Mirror reports that Netflix confirmed the pair will remain as hosts of the show, which they have been presenting together since 2024 and is due to return to screens later in 2026. 

Meanwhile, comedian Josh, 43, will also continue his role on 's The Last Leg, as it doesn't clash with filming for Strictly Come Dancing. 

Speaking about her new role, Emma said in a video last week: 'I still can't find words because my tummy is just flipping consistently.' 

'I imagine it's how you feel when you know you've got to walk down the stairs. "Dancing the cha cha!" and everything goes to jelly. That's how I feel thinking about what we're about to do.'

Josh added: 'I've just realised that I've been booked to present something with two of the most striking people on television, and I look like me. Absolute disaster.

'Emma is one of the great TV hosts of our generation, and Johannes is one of the great dancers of our generation, and I'm here as well.'

Josh previoisly relayed his excitement over his role to co-host and fellow comedian Rob Beckett who praised his pal for nabbing the job on the latest episode of their podcast Parenting Hell.

Discussing his co-stars, he branded himself 'the runt of the litter' as he said: 'I'm a weird-looking little guy. I realised I've been cast with two of the most striking looking people on television.'

On his diminutive height, he went on: 'Johannes is 6'2", Emma's the same height as me but she'll be wearing heels, we've already discussed it's going to be fun for the Halloween special I may be the first person to go as Damon Albarn on Icons Night.'

Rob, 40, went on to warn potential trolls that he would be hitting back at critics of his co-host, who he poked fun at for scooping the role despite frequently grumbling over his busy schedule and time away from home after relocating from London to Exeter.

Continuing in their dumbfoundedness over his new role, Josh joked that he would not have been in the bookies' running due to his unlikely casting, while Rob goaded Josh for 'lying' during his appearance on Good Morning Britain earlier in the week.

After much speculation over who would step into Tess and Claudia's shoes, the trio were announced last Tuesday in a tradition-busting decision by bosses to have three hosts after 22 years of having a two-person hosting team.

On the podcast, Rob congratulated Josh, to which he said: 'It's wild... I suppose it's one of the biggest shows in modern history, I suppose with I'm A Celebrity, Big Brother. I'm glad it's out there because I've been lying to people.'

When his pal accused him of acting like a politician on GMB, Josh defiantly stated: 'I didn't lie on Good Morning Britain, I evaded questions.'

The duo spoke about the promo shoot paired with the announcement, which saw Josh look suave in a navy suit while Johannes sported a plunging green ensemble and Emma wore a jumpsuit while they all held glitter balls.

Josh said: 'Lovely Emma and Jojo. This is recorded just after the announcement. I love the photo... We are [having loads of fun]. My face is disbelieving...

'I don't like the way I'm holding the glitterball. I'm holding the glitterball like it's the last go and I've got a 7-10 split on the bowling.'

Rob responded: 'You look great in it, the smile is great, the suit is perfect but the way you're holding the glitterball concerns me. It's hard to pose with a glitterball.'
