Emma Grede will also return as a Guest Dragon after her appearance last season.
With Dragons' Den set to return for its 22nd season next year, it has been confirmed that Joe Wicks and Trinny Woodall will be joining the series as Guest Dragons.
Wicks, also known as known as The Body Coach, is known for his work in the health and wellness industry and raising millions for charities, while Woodall is the founder and CEO of global, digital-first beauty brand, Trinny London, who first came to prominence in BBC series What Not to Wear.

Wicks said in a statement: "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."
Meanwhile, Woodall added: "Building and growing my beauty brand has been one of the great experiences of my life. 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."
