Speaking about the news, Will said: “As a fan of Strictly for years, I have always imagined myself on the show, but the timing has not been right... until now!"
The Pop Idol winner is no stranger to the dance floor, having been nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award in the revival of Cabaret the musical. The singer has also taken ballet lessons.
Yesterday, Labour politician Ed Balls announced he will take part in the dance show later this year.
He confirmed his place on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2 on Monday morning.
"I would love to say that I'm really looking forward to enjoying it, but I'm a bit scared to death," Ed said.
It's reported the full line-up will be announced this week. A source revealed some other star names to Mirror Online with Louise Redknapp and Laura Whitmore widely reported to be putting on their dancing shoes for the show's 14th season.
Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC later this year.
