Speaking to The Sunday People, a source said Ola plans to exit the show after its current run:

“This will be Ola’s last year for a while, if not forever.

“She and James have been talking seriously over the past few months about trying for a baby and they’ve decided that they will do so. Having a family is their priority, they have been married for 11 years and are definitely ready.”

The source added that the dancer doesn’t want to put her body under pressure if she does conceive during the next series:

“Dancing with a bump will be tough, Strictly is so demanding and she wouldn’t want to do anything to harm an unborn child or, less importantly, affect the chances of the celebrity who was paired with her.”
