Dianne Buswell has delighted fans by revealing that she and fellow Strictly professional Vito Coppola began planning their new tour while she was pregnant with her first child. The Strictly Come Dancing star shared a throwback clip from a photo shoot taken when she was 17 weeks pregnant with her son Bowden, whom she welcomed in March with partner Joe Sugg.
Tour Announcement and Fan Reactions
Buswell and Coppola announced their 'Back in Business' tour in June, following the success of their 2025 joint-headline show 'Red Hot & Ready'. In an Instagram post, Buswell wrote: "Back in business!!!!! Who's coming? Also, I was about 17 weeks pregnant in this shoot @vitocoppola." Fans responded enthusiastically, with comments like "Sooo excited for back in business !!! Got my tickets ready" and "Can't wait to come see you both next year."
Return to Strictly and Family Life
Buswell, who met Sugg on Strictly in 2018, is set to return as a professional dancer for the 2026 series starting in September. She has been sharing glimpses of family life with Sugg and their son, nicknamed 'Bowie', since his birth. The couple announced her pregnancy in September 2025, ahead of her participation in the 2025 series.
Tour Details
The 'Back in Business' tour promises "incredible dancing, big laughs, and plenty of surprises," according to the duo's announcement video, which humorously showed Buswell with a nappy stuck to her heel. The tour will visit theatres across the country, with tickets already on sale.
