September 14, 2025
Dancer Amy Dowden and other friends expressed happiness and excitement for the couple, calling the news 'magical' and sharing their support.
This pregnancy marks the first child for both Dianne and Joe after seven years together, representing a significant new chapter in their relationship.
Dianne has previously hinted at her love for children and her excitement about motherhood, emphasizing her willingness to take time off from her demanding dance career to start a family.
The couple lives together in a luxurious five-bedroom property worth £3.5 million, featuring extensive amenities like a gym, cinema, and large garden, supporting their stable and comfortable lifestyle.
Now residing in Brighton, Dianne and Joe have been together for seven years, sharing positive outlooks on their relationship and future family plans.
Dianne is set to participate in the upcoming series of Strictly Come Dancing starting September 20, 2025, although her involvement remains uncertain due to her pregnancy.
Despite her pregnancy, Dianne continues to participate in the 2025 Strictly series, expressing her desire to start a family while balancing her dance commitments.
Dianne Buswell and Joe Sugg, a couple who met on Strictly Come Dancing's sixteenth series, announced they are expecting their first child, a boy, with a social media post featuring a baby reveal painting.
The couple, who confirmed their relationship after the 2018 Strictly final, shared a heartfelt video set to Elton John’s 'Tiny Dancer,' depicting their announcement with a drawing of them holding hands and a baby figure labeled '2026.'
They purchased their first home in late 2021 and have long expressed a desire to start a family, with their relationship and future plans often shared publicly.
Their relationship has received public support from Dianne’s former partner Anthony Quinlan, who publicly endorsed their relationship and dismissed rumors of the 'Strictly curse' affecting their bond.
Dianne was part of the 2024 winning Strictly team with Chris McCausland, and her participation in the new season remains to be confirmed.
