Who is in Dancing with the Stars 2025?

Brittany Hockley

Brittany Hockley is no stranger to reality TV, but Dancing With The Stars might be her biggest challenge yet! The Life Uncut podcaster and The Pick Up radio host revealed that she landed a spot on the show after producers saw a viral video of her struggling through a wedding dance practice with her fiancé, Ben. Clearly, they saw some potential—or at least a fun transformation story. Brittany first won over audiences on The Bachelor Season 6 before appearing on Bachelor in Paradise, The Challenge Australia, and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Now, she’s ready to swap reality drama for the ballroom—let’s just hope she’s got two left feet no more!

Shaun Micallef

Shaun Micallef is set to bring his signature wit (and hopefully some smooth moves) to Dancing With The Stars Australia in 2025. The beloved comedian and TV veteran had quite the year in 2024, appearing on three different shows across three networks — his ABC chat show Eve of Destruction, SBS documentary Shaun Micallef’s Origin Odyssey, and now 2025 will see him join Seven’s hit dancing competition. Whether he wows with his footwork or delivers some perfectly timed comedic missteps, one thing’s for sure —Micallef will be must-watch TV.

Harry Garside is swapping the boxing ring for the ballroom as he joins the 2025 cast of Dancing With The Stars Australia. The Olympic bronze medallist, who made history as Australia’s first male boxing medallist in 33 years at the Tokyo Games, is no stranger to a challenge. He’s already proven his reality TV chops, finishing as runner-up on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2023. Known for breaking stereotypes with his unique style and passion for ballet-inspired training, Harry could be a serious contender for the Mirrorball trophy—if his fancy footwork translates from the ring to the dance floor!
