The former 'Glow Up' presenter will take the helm of new BBC programme 'Hungry For It', which will see up-and-coming chefs compete in a series of challenges in a bid to find a new Jamie Oliver or Nigella Lawson.

A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre TV column: “Stacey’s warmth and support towards the contestants on 'Glow Up' created a feel-good series which producers want to bring to this new show.”

The documentary maker's career has taken a different path since she won 'Strictly Come Dancing' with now-boyfriend Kevin Clifton in 2018 and she's previously admitted the Latin and ballroom contest changed her life "for the better".

She said: "It definitely changed the demographic.

"I think up until 'Strictly', I had a real presence on BBC Three, but I don’t think I was a household name by any stretch of

the imagination.

“I was known for documentaries, but then 'Strictly' catapults you into a different space. Suddenly, Mary in Tesco knows who you are. So it’s definitely changed my life for the better.”

Meanwhile, the 34-year-old star insisted she isn't interested in marrying Kevin and thinks she'd make a "useless" wife, though she would like to have children.

She previously said: "Kev and I have been together for two years. I don’t think I want to get married. I think I’d be more interested in starting a family than getting married.

"I can’t think of anything worse than being a Tradwife.

"I would be useless, completely and utterly useless. He’d divorce me in a heartbeat.

"Of course, I’m not going to become a Tradwife, I can’t think of anything I would least rather do than obeying a man.

"It makes you more vulnerable."
