The BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards recognise excellence in Britain and worldwide sport. The highest honour, the Sports Personality of the Year award, is conferred upon those people or sports persons who had the greatest positive influence during the year, professionally and otherwise. This is slated for Tuesday, 19 Dec, where Gary Lineker, Gabby Logan, and Clare Balding alongside Alex Scott as hosts shall air it live from the MediaCityUK.

Amongst the shortlisted ones, an exciting equestrian personality has emerged from the wake stealing much of the spotlight. His standing in this regard is remarkable, as he has ignited enthusiasm among the equestrian circle, jubilantly waiting to drink in his wisdom.

Frankie Dettori’s SPOTY nomination

The final six contenders for the 2023 BBC Sports Personality Of The Year award were revealed, and one of them is the prominent jockey Frankie Dettori. The 2023 I’m A Celebrity campmate created a WhatsApp group called “#Junglesquad 2023” and their uproarious reactions to Dettori’s SPOTY news surfaced recently. Frankie Dettori, the renowned Italian jockey and I’m a Celebrity star, shared a teasing post on X. He posted a snippet from the chat where Nick kicked off the conversation by asking, “Frankie, Are the rumors true?” Danielle chimed in excitedly, “OMG! I just saw the Sporty shortlist. That’s amazing!” Josie joined in, saying, “Oh Frankie, that’s great news. Beautiful.” Frankie confirmed the news with a simple “thanks” and added, “Cheers. BBC One on Tuesday, 19 December.” The anticipation continues to build.

The caption accompanying the post stated, ” A really proud moment to be shortlisted as one of six contenders for the 2023 @BBC Sports Personality of the Year award. Voting will take place during the show on BBC One on Tuesday, 19 December.” However, despite his efforts, Dettori faced disappointment. His stint on ‘I’m A Celebrity’ is well documented as well, much to everyone’s entertainment fodder.
