Judi Love

She's no stranger to stage, but now Judi Love's coming out from behind the mic to show us some moves!

Hackney-born Judi started began performing at drama school, but left shortly after joining when she discovered she was pregnant! While raising her first child she enrolled in stand-up comedy evening classes, and the rest as they say is history. It was here she found the passion for a career in comedy, focusing on it full-time from 2011.

Since then, she's made people laugh on hundreds of stages across the UK and has appeared on our screens in shows such as Pranksterz, Jon Richardson’s Channel Hopping, 8 Out of 10 Cats, The Ranganation, Celebrity Juice, This Is My House and Would I Lie To You. However, she's best known for being a returning panelist on daytime show Loose Women, as well hosting several of her own original shows on Facebook.

Judi's also a renowned voice on radio, hosting her own BBC Radio London Sunday show until March 2021. Plus, she's gone on to graduate university twice, completing two degrees while raising her two children.

Let's see if this superwoman has a Strictly winning title in her too! "I'm not thinking of it as a competition," she said. "I see myself as my biggest competition, because I believe it’s your thoughts and your mind and what you think about yourself that gets you through it."

Here here, Judi!
