Joining Strictly in 2019, Nancy Xu is back for another year of Strictly magic!

A specialist in Latin, Nancy was a finalist in the U21 World Championships in 2010, took third place in the 2010-2012 CBDF National Amateur Latin Championships and was a runner up at the 2013 International Singapore Championship.

But that's not all. The fierce female has since been a finalist on So You Think You Can Dance in China and starred in West End and Broadway show Burn The Floor.

In 2021, she took to the Strictly dance floor with her first ever celebrity partner C大象传媒 presenter Rhys Stephenson. The pair made it all the way to the Semi-Final, and in 2022, she narrowly missed out on the final with actor Will Mellor, as they were the 11th couple to leave the show. In 2023 she was back for round three with comedian and presenter Les Dennis, but unfortunately they bowed out in Week Two!

Returning to the dance floor in 2024, Nancy is partenered with singer and actor, Shayne Ward.
