Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins in chaos as US star turns down show and reveals ‘real reason’ she’d never do it
KIMBERLY Wyatt has revealed she turned down the chance to appear on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
The 41-year-old pop star – best known for being in the The Pussycat Dolls – had been approached to take part in the next series of the intense physical challenge show but said she has to be “careful” because of her dance career.
Kimberly – who placed third on ITV‘s Dancing on Ice in 2022 – told the Daily Star: “There were conversations, but I don’t think I’m going to do it. I have to be careful. That show would take a toll on your body.
“And I don’t want to give up dancing. I have to be mindful about the choices I make so I can keep doing the things I love. “I love doing reality TV, but it comes with a cost.”
The upcoming series of the Channel 4 military adventure show will feature the likes of Geordie Shore star Marnie Simpson, comedienne Shazia Mirza and Bianca Gascoigne – who is the daughter of football legend Paul.
They will all be put through their paces by trainers Rudy Reyes, Remi Adeleke, Jason ‘Foxy’ Fox and Mark Billy Billingham in New Zealand, for the show, which will air next year.
Former Doctor Who star John Barrowman had also signed up to the series, but quit so early on in filming that his exit will go down as the “fastest ever” in the show’s history.
A source told The Sun: “John’s exit from Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will go down in the show’s history as the fastest ever. They’d all got kitted up in their uniforms and had started filming in New Zealand when he chose to walk out.
“It is an incredibly mentally and physically challenging television show and the task they were facing was difficult.”
