## Resource

Shaun Wright-Phillips, the former England winger with a glittering football career, is swapping cleats for sequins as he prepares to hit the Strictly Come Dancing dance floor in 2026. Adopted by legend Ian Wright and once playing alongside his brother Bradley, Shaun’s athletic journey now takes a dazzling turn as he steps into ballroom dancing — a challenge he admits is outside his comfort zone but one he’s thrilled to embrace. Joining fifteen other celebrities, he’ll compete against the clock and the cha-cha from September 19 on BBC One, with live shows starting September 26 and culminating in a grand finale on December 19. Can he master the tango or will he be more at home with a spin? Tune in to find out. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
