Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell has shared a pregnancy update with fans, revealing her baby bump is 'growing by the day'. The professional dancer, who is expecting her first child with YouTuber Joe Sugg, posted a series of photos on Instagram on Sunday evening (January 11) after returning to the UK from Australia.
Dianne, 35, and Joe, 33, spent Christmas in her native Australia, where they enjoyed a baby shower and time with her parents. In the Instagram post, Dianne posed in a mirror wearing a cropped blue jumper with duck, flower and tree motifs, showing off her bump. She wrote: 'That side view is growing by the day' and joked that she 'still can't see her feet'.
The couple, who met on Strictly in 2018, confirmed they are expecting a baby boy. Dianne continued to compete on the 23rd season of the show while pregnant, becoming the first pregnant dancer to do so. She was initially paired with Neighbours actor Stefan Dennis, but he withdrew due to injury. She later took part in professional routines and appeared at the final in December.
Back in the UK, Dianne said she is 'loving' returning to pilates and the gym, noting: 'I had a few weeks off and I can confirm I feel so much better when I'm moving.' She also shared that her parents gave her Patrick Karst's novel The Invisible String 'for baby boy', and that Joe gifted her a Toy Story mug and a hospital bag.
Fans and friends flooded the comments with well wishes. Strictly colleague Vito Coppola wrote 'Gorjiiiiiii', while others praised the couple's preparations. Dianne and Joe are now settling back into life in the UK ahead of their baby's arrival.
