“As this last run of Dragons’ comes to an end I have to say I’ve loved every minute of this series so far and I’m so proud of the businesses I’ve invested in this year!

“As well as filming an incredible show, being a Dragon requires so much dedication and time behind the scenes as you join the life of each business you invest in. It means seeing through your investment and committing to your part in that organisation. It’s so much more than a TV show. That’s why I’ve taken the decision to step away from the Den for now, to focus on my own business, which was my first baby! So I won’t be filming with the team this year for the next series.”
Davies will however be hosting a new “high-stakes quiz show” at Dock 10 for ITV. Time Is Money was announced earlier this week and has been proceed by Hairy Bikers producer South Shore and Plegazoid, Pointless creator David Flynn’s studio.
Davies added:
“Sending so much love to my fellow Dragons and the amazing team behind it all. In the meantime, you can still catch me in the second half of this series of Dragons’ Den later in the year – it will not disappoint!”
Davies has been part of Dragons’ Den since 2019 and was the youngest ever female Dragon when she joined the show.
