Last updated 1st Aug 2023
Strictly Come Dancing professional Dianne Buswell has shared her plans to start a family with her boyfriend, YouTuber Joe Sugg. The pair met in 2018 when they were paired together on Strictly, finishing as runners-up behind Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley - who are also now a couple.
In a Q&A with fans on her Instagram Stories, Dianne revealed that her and Joe would love to become parents 'one day'. A fan asked: 'would you ever have kids with Joe.'
Replying to the question, the 34-year-old dancer shared a sweet clip of her and Joe with her niece, Zofina. Alongside the video, she wrote: 'We love being aunt and uncle for our beautiful nieces and nephew for now but yes one day we would love it.'
This year, the couple relocated to a stunning new five-bedroom house near Brighton. The £3.5 million home was previously owned by Brighton and Hove Albion player, Lewis Dunk.
Check out which couples found love on Strictly:
Natasha Kaplinsky and Brendan Cole

When boxer Joe Calzaghe appeared on the show in 2009, he announced to the press that his relationship with his partner Jo-Emma Larvin had come to an end, just one week into his Strictly journey.
