The arrival of the new members will allow the group to continue their legacy of entertaining children, which they have kept up for over 2 decades now.
Murray Cook, one of the members who will say goodbye to the group, said: “We’ve been entertaining children around the world for 21 years and it’s important that we plan for the future so that we can keep wiggling in the years to come.”
Emma, who will take up the yellow skivvy, will also be the first ever female member of The Wiggles.
