| Updated:

Pro dancer Dianne Buswell has shut down rumours of a split with partner Joe Sugg after initially sparking concern during Saturday’s episode of Strictly Come Dancing. Growing visibly emotional and upset, Dianne had some viewers wondering whether she and Joe might have parted ways.

“Bobby [Brazier] and Dianne was a strange one tonight, usually love watching them dance, but the energy was just off. They both looked so sad and Dianne kept calling Bobby her rock… I hope whatever they’re going through, it gets better soon,” one fan wrote on Twitter as the episode aired.

However, a loving post she shared to her Instagram story yesterday suggests that her relationship to internet celebrity Joe Sugg is doing just fine, with Dianne declaring that “I love you so much more than I even did before”.

At the weekend, Dianne struggled to contain her emotions while talking to Claudia Winkleman after her routine with Bobby Brazier on Saturday (October 14). During the post-performance interview, Dianne said: “He has just been a massive rock this week, so thank you.”

Her voice then broke, and she leaned into Bobby’s chest for a hug. This palpable sadness led some fans to speculate as to whether all is well with Dianne behind the scenes.

One fan feared on X: “I heard that Dianne might of broken up with her partner Joe, so it could of been that.”

However, another added: “Joe posted how incredible her dance was so don’t think they’ve broken up – don’t know where people say they have.”
