Author: Emma DoddsPublished 25th Oct 2018

This year's series of Strictly Come Dancing has already been an incredibly dramatic one. There's been the obvious main drama between comedian Seann Walsh and his dance partner Katya Jones - i.e them being photographed kissing in the street, despite being married to fellow Strictly star Neil Jones and Seann being in a long-term relationship at the time.

But after it was reported that Dianne Buswell had split from her Emmerdale actor boyfriend Anthony Quinlan over her growing friendship with dance parter Joe Sugg, a YouTuber, it seemed like there was no end to the controversy.

A source told Express.co.uk that the pair were "100% in a relationship," however, Joe has now had his say on the matter - and he says quite the opposite.

According to the publication, Joe was directly asked whether he was dating Dianne, and categorically said, "No, I don’t think so. I haven’t got time. But after the show finishes, we’ll stay friends," as a representative for Joe confirmed the rumours were "absolutely not true."

After news of their split broke, Anthony reportedly confirmed the split, citing the long distance as being the issue and describing it as "taxing" for the both of them, but added that the pair were "still good friends" and that "these things happen."

Anthony went on to say that when they were together, they "had a great time," and added of the rumours around Joe and Dianne, "People are always going to speculate, that’s certainly out of my hands - there’s nothing I can do about that."

Strictly Come Dancing continues this Saturday on BBC One at 6.50pm.
