Strictly enthusiasts reckon they've sussed out a theory that predicts the winner of this year's Glitterball trophy. The final four couples are set to battle it out in the Strictly Come Dancing finale this weekend, but some fans are convinced they already know who won't be taking home the win. Keen observers have highlighted a six-year trend where the victors of both Strictly and I'm a Celebrity.
.. Get Me Out of Here! seem to alternate by gender.
According to this pattern, if a male celebrity wins I'm a Celebrity, then a female star is destined to triumph in Strictly. Based on this, either Sarah Hadland or Tasha Ghouri could be crowned the 2024 Strictly champion, leaving Chris McCausland and JB Gill out of the running.

In 2022, Jill Scott was victorious in I'm Celeb, with Hamza Yassin securing the Strictly title shortly after. Danny Miller took the top spot in the 2021 I'm a Celeb, followed by Rose Ayling-Ellis's dance floor success. The previous year's winners were Giovanna Fletcher in the jungle and Bill Bailey on the dance floor.
Back in 2019, Jacqueline Jossa was crowned jungle queen, and Kelvin Fletcher danced his way to the Strictly win. The Strictly judges have also weighed in on this year's finalists. Craig Revel Horwood commented: "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.".
