The spokesperson also confirmed all being well, Jennifer will return to her 2FM radio show late next week, broadcasting from home.

In a post shared on Instagram today, the RTÉ star said she’s “devastated” to be missing the show this weekend.

“This week I won’t be hosting Dancing with Nicky because I have tested positive for Covid,” she wrote.

“To say I’m devastated to be missing a show would be an understatement but it had to be done. My pal @lottieryani will be taking over and she will be amazing.”

“Wishing @lottieryani and the whole crew a fab show. Enjoy every second,” she added.

This Sunday’s episode of DWTS will feature the first elimination of the series, after 12 celebrities battle it out on the dance floor with their professional partners.

Dancing with the Stars airs on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player this Sunday at 6.30pm.
