A Strictly Come Dancing star who was arrested on suspicion of rape is to face no charges, police have said.
The man, whose identity is not known, was arrested in October last year in connection with an alleged incident in 2024.
The alleged victim was reportedly not a contestant or professional dancer on the BBC dancing show.
A Hertfordshire Police statement said: “There will be no criminal charges brought against an individual arrested by Hertfordshire Constabulary in London on Monday October 13 2025 on suspicion of rape.
“The man, who had his bail extended on Tuesday January 6 until Tuesday April 7 2026, to allow further enquiries to take place, will face no further action.
“Early advice was sought from the Crown Prosecution Service, but detectives determined that there was insufficient evidence to bring forward criminal charges.”
The show, which airs from September to December, is filmed at Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire.
BBC News reports that the arrest was not related to the latest series of Strictly.
The BBC declined to comment on the incident.
It comes after another male star of the BBC show was arrested in August last year on suspicion of rape.
The man in his 30s, who has not been named, was also detained over a separate alleged offence of “non-consensual intimate image abuse”.
It is not known what role the second man had on the show.
