Its capital and reserves stand at a healthy £612,353, up from £344,315 on the previous year’s numbers.

The figures relate to the 12 month period ending 31 August 2025, so don’t take into account his , nor any of the theatre work he has landed since.

It means he could be on track to become a millionaire in the not too distant future with many opportunities set to come his way.

The Sun has contacted a representative for Johannes for comment.

When the South African star, 39, filed his first accounts back in 2021, there was just £15K in its coffers.

His meteoric rise coincides with his success in the Strictly ballroom.

Though the Glitterball eluded him, his highest finish was second with in series 19, his flamboyant personality and stunning choreography were a hit with viewers.

Last month it was announced he, and would be the trio to replace previous hosts Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly.

Kate Phillips. BBC’s Chief Content Officer called their chemistry “undeniable”.

Johannes said: “To be returning to in this new role is beyond anything I ever imagined.

“This show has always stood for joy, heart, and togetherness, and I feel deeply honoured to now help carry that magic forward.

“To do it alongside the formidable Emma Willis and the utterly brilliant Josh Widdicombe makes it even more special. I’m ready-sequins, nerves, and all…please bear with me. Love Jojo”.

Away from Strictly, Johannes had a leading role in Kinky Boots on both its 2025 UK tour and in its run in the West End earlier this year.
