Beauty mogul Trinny Woodall is heading into the Dragons' Den next year, as she takes on the esteemed role as a guest Dragon on BBC One's popular show.

Last series was the first time the show welcomed Guest Dragons into the Den, and viewers loved the shake-up to the line-up of existing Dragons: Peter Jones, Deborah Meaden, Touker Suleyman, Sara Davies and Steven Bartlett.

As the founder and CEO of her hugely successful digital-first beauty brand, Trinny London, the beauty and fashion icon and businesswoman is well-placed to judge the pitches of hopeful entrepreneurs and will no doubt bring valuable insights and inspiring strategic advice to the Den.

"Building and growing my beauty brand has been one of the great experiences of my life," says Trinny. "I'm delighted to join the next series of Dragons' Den as a Guest Dragon, and look forward to discovering the fantastic ideas and passion that the entrepreneurs will bring to the table. I’m looking forward to sharing insights from my own entrepreneurial journey, and hope I can play a part in helping these businesses achieve their goals."

Also joining Trinny in series 22 of Dragons' Den will be fitness guru Joe Wicks aka The Body Coach.

Joe said: "I can't wait to step into the Den as a Guest Dragon and meet all the brilliant and passionate entrepreneurs. My own journey has shown me that with the right mindset and a lot of hard work, anything is possible. I’m really looking forward to sharing my experiences and hopefully helping some amazing businesses reach their full potential."

Businesswoman, serial entrepreneur and philanthropist Emma Grede will also return to the Den alongside Trinny and Joe, after her successful debut stint as a Guest Dragon in the previous series.

"I’m so happy to be back in the Den," says Emma, who is the co-founder and CEO of jeans brand Good American and founding partner of shapewear label SKIMS. "This show is all about opening up the world of business and providing a platform for emerging entrepreneurs who might not otherwise have the opportunity. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know and support the people and businesses I discovered last time around, and I can't wait to do it all again!"

Series 22 of Dragons' Den will return to BBC One and BBC iPlayer in 2025.
