Donegal’s Eric Roberts has been appointed his dance partner for the upcoming Dancing with the Stars 2026.
The Glitterball extravaganza doesn’t hit RTE television screens until January 4th.
But Eric has already been secretly going through his paces with his new dance partner.
The former SNA has had an incredible year and is now a TV presenter with Virgin Media.
And insiders say he is certainly no slouch on the dance floor with a bit of experience under his belt.
Eric Roberts paired with newcomer Arianna Favaro, who joins Dancing with the Stars this season.
Arianna is a Latin-American style dancer from Italy. She is known for both her competitive career and her work on stage.
Arianna is in a relationship with DWTS pro dancer, Maciej Zieba, so viewers will be watching to see the chemistry and the competition between the couple!
The series returns to brighten our Sundays on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player from Sunday 4 January at 6.30pm.
Go Eric!
