STRICTLY celebrity dancer Amber Davies has her sights set on Hull as she prepares to star in a show in the city.

Amber, currently partnering dance professional Nikita Kuzmin in the 23rd series of BBC One's hit show, is to take the lead role in the touring musical comedy, Legally Blonde The Musical.

Amber, 29, who won the 2017 series of ITV's Love Island, only stepped into the Strictly Come Dancing spotlight after Dani Dyer had to withdraw from the show after breaking her ankle. Welsh actress Amber debuted on Strictly’s first live show of the series, having only just started rehearsals with Nikita.
