Former hosts of the popular show “Strictly Come Dancing,” Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman, recently came together for a special reunion following their joint departure from the series in 2025. Tess, who has collaborated with NAIA Beach to launch her own line of activewear, was all smiles as she unveiled her collection alongside Claudia at the event. The two friends shared a joyful moment captured in a photo shared on Claudia’s Instagram, showcasing a blue vest and matching leggings from Tess’s new range.
Claudia, now featured on the show “The Traitors,” praised Tess in her post, referring to the activewear collection as “amazing.” The collection not only includes the blue vest and leggings set but also features a stylish grey co-ord with an animal print. Tess reciprocated the love by commenting on Claudia’s post with a message of affection.
Although their farewell was pre-recorded before their final live episode aired, Claudia and Tess bid an emotional goodbye during Strictly’s Christmas special, where they shared a heartfelt hug and dance. Tess expressed her gratitude to the viewers for their support over the years, emphasizing the significance of their time on the show. In a joint statement released earlier, the pair described their experience on Strictly as a dream come true and acknowledged the exceptional team behind the scenes.
Their final episode, filled with tears and tributes, aired on December 20th, as they bid adieu to their hosting roles. One notable tribute came from Queen Camilla, read by Craig Revel Horwood, commending Tess and Claudia for their friendship, resilience, and the joy they brought to the show. The heartfelt message expressed gratitude and admiration for the duo’s contributions to Strictly Come Dancing.
True to their promise of continued friendship and support, Tess and Claudia’s bond remains strong even after their exit from the show. Their enduring camaraderie and dedication to each other have left a lasting impact on the audience.
