The 20-year-old actor made it to the final in the 2023 series of Strictly Come Dancing alongside Layton Williams and Ellie Leach, who won the programme.
After the conclusion of the show, it was reported that offers for new TV appearances have been flooding in for the star with many wanting to sign him for new projects.
One of these includes an offer from the BBC which 'wants' to produce a travel show with Bobby Brazier and his father Jeff Brazier.

The insider also revealed that the son of Jade Goody has been swamped with offers to star in West End productions, sign record deals and could soon make appearances in TV adverts after his Strictly Come Dancing stint.
Telling The Sun of his recent popularity with producers, the source said: "From the start of Strictly, Beeb [BBC] bosses realised that they had a serious star on their hands â and the fact that he made it to the final was a complete bonus.
"So, theyâre incredibly keen to keep him with the Corporation, not least because Bobby is seen as home-grown talent as he got his big TV break on EastEnders.
"The travelogue show would be a shrewd way to tempt him to stay with the Beeb and is likely to be among the first of many projects theyâll tempt him with â many with a fat pay cheque too."
They added: "Involving dad Jeff is also a smart idea as his profile has been raised enormously by appearing in the Strictly audience for the past three months.
"The bond between Brazier junior and senior is obvious to everyone and bosses are keen to tap into that."
