'Dancing with the Stars' cast to reportedly include Nikki Bella and Drew Scott

Dancing with the Stars will reportedly feature professional wrestler Nikki Bella and real estate agent Drew Scott competing on the upcoming 25th season on ABC.


Nikki, who stars on E!'s Total Divas and the spinoff Total Bellas, and Drew, who stars on HGTV's Property Brothers, have signed on to join the cast of Dancing with the Stars' Fall 2017 edition, TV Guide reported.

Nikki and Drew both have a twin sibling, but according to the magazine, the pair will be competing on Dancing with the Stars as individuals.

Nikki is currently inactive in the WWE due to an injury, but she must be almost fully recovered if she's able to participate in the reality dancing competition. Nikki recently got engaged to American Grit host and fellow pro wrestler John Cena.

The sixth season of Total Divas concluded in May. Nikki and her fraternal twin Brie's spinoff series, Total Bellas, will premiere its second season September 6 on E!.


Drew stars on Property Brothers with his identical twin, Jonathan, who acts as the contractor when the pair remodel homes. The brothers have managed to launch numerous spinoffs since Property Brothers debuted in 2011, including Brother Vs. Brother and Property Brothers: At Home.

In April, HGTV announced it will premiere Property Brothers at Home: Drew's Honeymoon House, a second season of Property Brothers at Home, in November.

The show will follow Drew and Jonathan -- as well as Drew's fiancee Linda -- as they renovate the soon-to-be newlyweds' first home together in Los Angeles just in time for the rehearsal dinner.

The sixth season of Property Brothers -- which features the brothers finding, buying and transforming fixer-uppers into dream homes -- wrapped in March.

ABC has not confirmed or denied Nikki or Drew's potential participation on Dancing with the Stars, but the network rarely comments on casting rumors in general.


While news surfaced last month that DeMario Jackson from Bachelor in Paradise was also in talks to compete on Dancing with the Stars next season, TV Guide reported it was just a rumor.

The Season 25 lineup of Dancing with the Stars professional partners will be announced Thursday, August 24 on Good Morning America, with the celebrity cast officially being revealed at a later date.

Dancing with the Stars will return with its 25th season on Monday, September 18 at 8PM ET/PT on ABC.
