Originally, Christophe Licata did not think of returning for the 2025 edition, in particular because of the consequences of the clash between Natasha St-Pier and Inès Reg (who was his partner last year). But the charming brunette finally changed his mind, as he explains to our colleagues. If for thirteen years, he left his South to come to Paris for the time of filming, he informed the production that for season 14, it would not be the same.
“The candidate that was proposed to me touches me. She has an atypical profile, even if I can’t tell you who she is yet. Mays what pushed me above all to accept is that this year, I am not leaving my wife or my son, I am staying at home. I’m not going to be cut off from my real life. It was the condition for me to continue“, admitted Coralie’s husband and Livio’s dad.
Christophe Licata indeed confided that “the most difficult“during the filming of Dancing with the stars“it’s about privacy“. The fact of “find yourself alone in Paris, far from [ses] loved ones“. A distancing which will therefore not be relevant this year.

If he does not have the right to say with whom he will share the adventure this season, rumors say that he will be with Mayane (actress who played in the hit film A little something extra). On the women’s side, we will also find the actress, the host, the former candidate of the Star Academy Lénie Vacher, the singer and Miss France 2024. The men are represented by the Olympic champion, the world football champions and Franck Leboeuf, the presenter, the former candidate of Koh Lanta Claude Dartois and the singer Jungeli. It is on February 7 that they will take their first steps on the set, in front of the public and the jury made up of Chris Marques, Mel Charlot, Fauve Hautot and Jean-Marc Généreux.
