David Whelan the hot favourite to win the Glitterball Trophy ahead of the new season of Dancing With The Stars

David Whelan and Laura Fox are the frontrunners to win RTE’s Dancing with the Stars according to Ladbrokes.

With just days to go until the competition kicks off, Wild Youth singer David Whelan and TV presenter Laura Fox have been chalked up as the 3/1 joint-favourites to go all the way before a toe has even been tapped.

Social media star Miriam Mullins follows closely at 4/1, ahead of Jason Smyth and Blu Hydrangea both 6/1.

Meanwhile, Katja Mia, Rory Cowan and Rosanna Davison can’t be split at 7/1.

Other famous names in the mix include Fair City actor Shane Quigley (10/1) and racing legend Davy Russell (12/1).

It is bad news for Eileen Dunne who is the current outsider at 25/1.

Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes said: “Betting is starting to hot up as Dancing With The Stars approaches and judging by the money, punters seem convinced that David Whelan and Laura Fox are the ones to beat.”
