BBC star Martin Roberts is preparing to sign the contract to compete in Strictly Come Dancing.
The Homes Under The Hammer host, 60, has been in talks with bosses since 2021.
It comes just two years after he almost died when he was rushed to hospital with chest pains.
He underwent life-saving surgery after suddenly suffering from pericardial effusion – fluid around the heart which can lead to organ failure.
Now the Daily Star reports he’s preparing to dust off his dancing shoes.
A source said: “Martin is just waiting to sign his contract. It’ll be a dream come true for him – and a delight for viewers.”
He hinted about the exciting show signing at this week’s TRIC awards.
He told the newspaper: “I’m like a Ninja Mutant Hero Turtle – I just eat pizzas. Domino’s Mighty Meat. I’m the stomach of Domino’s, not the face of it.
“I should worry about what I eat because I had a health scare. I need to look after myself better.
“And certainly if I get this TV show later in the year. I’ll have to get super fit.”
