STRICTLY fans claim they have a theory which proves who will lift the Glitterball trophy this year.
This weekend will see the final four Strictly Come Dancing couples compete in the final – but some viewers have insisted it’s already clear who won’t win.
It’s been pointed out by eagle-eyed fans that, for the last six years, the winners of both Strictly and I’m a Celebrity have lined-up with a pattern.
They’ve noticed that if a man wins I’m a Celebrity, a woman becomes the Strictly champ.
This means the 2024 winner will either be Sarah Hadland or Tasha Ghouri, with Chris McCausland and JB Gill will losing out.
Last year’s jungle king was Sam Thompson and Coronation Street star Ellie Leach lifted the Glitterball.
In 2022 Jill Scott won I’m Celeb while Hamza Yassin was crowned the Strictly champ.
Danny Miller was the last I’m a Celeb campmate standing in 2021 and weeks later Rose Ayling-Ellis enjoyed Strictly victory.
The year before the Strictly and I’m a Celeb champs were Giovanna Fletcher and Bill Bailey respectively.
EastEnders’ Jacqueline Jossa was jungle queen in 2019 and the Glitterball went to Kelvin Fletcher.
The Strictly judges recently shared their verdicts on this year’s finalists. Craig Revel Horwood said: “I am so pleased Chris McCausland got through to the final. I think all four finalists are worthy winners.
“You don’t have to be the best dancer to win, you just have to get the audience on your side.
“When it gets to the final, 100 per cent of the vote comes from them. The final this year is going to be so rewarding, dance-wise, as they are all great, so it’s all very exciting.”
Head judge Shirley Ballas added: “The cast have been truly wonderful and the dancing has been off the chart.”
Motsi Mabuse said: “All of our finalists have brought something so unique to the competition and it’s been a joy to watch them grow. It’s going to be a tough decision because each finalist brings magic to the dance floor.”
And Anton Du Beke added: “It’s been such a magical series, up there with the best ever.”
Strictly first kicked off back in 2004, and over the years has crowned 21 winners.
