Len Goodman, the longtime judge of “Dancing With The Stars,” has died after a battle with bone cancer, according to reports. He was 78.

Goodman’s manager

Goodman was head judge on the British version of the celebrity competition, “Strictly Come Dancing,” from its launch in 2004 until 2016. He joined “DWTS” when it premiered in the US in 2005 through 2022. Goodman — born as Leonard Gordon Goodman in London in 1944 — began dancing at 19 years old after a doctor told him up-and-down movement would be good for his feet after sustaining a foot injury.

BBC’s director general Tim Davie paid tribute to the music enthusiast, calling him “a wonderful, warm entertainer who was adored by millions.”“He appealed to all ages and felt like a member of everyone’s family. Len was at the very heart of Strictly’s success. He will be hugely missed by the public and his many friends and family.”
