Good Morning Britain fears losing Ranvir Singh after her successful stint on Strictly

Good Morning Britain bosses fear that they could lose Ranvir Singh after her successful stint on Strictly Come Dancing.

With her current contract ending in the New Year, Ranvir, 43, who is political editor for the popular ITV programme, is due to begin contract negotiations.

Sources on the show fear her heightened popularity will result in her being inundated with other, more lucrative offers. 

‘Ranvir is bigger than standing on Downing Street in the rain in the early hours of the morning now,’ said one insider. 

‘She has shown her true self on Strictly and is now quite the star.’ 

Ranvir regularly stands in for Good Morning Britain‘s main presenters Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid.

Her chemistry with dance partner Giovanni Pernice has fuelled talk of a romance. 

It intensified following a clip of their performance last week in which he was heard saying: ‘I love you.’ 

However, the television presenter has insisted that romance between the pair is ‘fantasy’.

Friends of the Strictly pro also deny they are in a relationship, adding: ‘It’s just for TV.’ 

On Saturday night’s semi-finals, Craig Revel Horwood described the duo’s Viennese waltz to She Used To Be Mine from musical Waitress as ‘beautiful’, awarding her nine out of ten on Strictly on Saturday night.

Fellow judges Shirley Ballas and Motsi Mabuse matched his score, giving her 27 out of 30. 

Motsi told them: ‘I was moved from your words from your VT and I think every mom has a connection, but I’m more emotional about your dancing!

‘Because now you’ve finally come into you… all your qualities came together today. For me that was such a magic moment.’ 

Ranvir candidly chatted about how she’s grown in confidence during the show in the video played ahead of her routine on Saturday. 

She said: ‘Doing strictly has made me confront how I think, it does force you to look at yourself in a different way. 

‘Each week you have to feel braver about your body, not hiding behind a big coat and boots like I’ve spent the past 20 years doing. It’s lovely to realise there’s untapped potential in yourself.’

The star then added: ‘So many women and mums watch the show and recognise themselves in my, you could say, discomfort, and finding a way to feel like you’re still worth feeling proud of.’
