Tess: "I'm Not Leaving Strictly"
Tess Daly has tried to quiet rumours that she is to be replaced by former participant Christine Bleakley.
The Mirror reported this week that BBC bosses wanted to give Christine the job in order to stop her following Adrian Chiles over to ITV1. A source told the paper: "Big changes are afoot. Tess and Bruce are at the heart of the Strictly family and are dearly loved by fans and staff alike. But they've fronted the show for over half a decade now and no one can go on forever. So plans are being drawn up for when that day comes. BBC bosses have told Christine they want her to be at the centre of the show's revamp, to give Strictly the same ratings boost Cheryl Cole brought to The X Factor."
But Tess has hit back, telling The Sun: "I'm not leaving Strictly. I love it too much. I'm just glad so many people enjoy the show. I'm staying put."
