Pregnant Dianne Buswell admits her baby bump ‘has popped’ and says dressing for Strictly is getting harder and harder

Dianne Buswell, who is expecting a baby, shared that her bump is now clearly visible and finding clothes to wear for ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ is getting more difficult, in a recent update.

The 36-year-old professional dancer is expecting her first child with her partner, Joe Sugg, 34. They met in 2018 while working together on a dancing competition show.

Dressed in a sleek black swimsuit, she put on sunglasses and playfully pretended to keep a secret, saying, ‘Nobody will ever know…’

Dianne walked away from the camera to show off her baby bump, then said with a smile, ‘Everyone will find out soon enough.’

She captioned to update: ‘Getting dressed for rehearsals is getting a little harder these days.’

Oh my gosh, Dianne was amazing – the very first pro ever to dance while pregnant on the show! It was so inspiring. Sadly, her partner Stefan had to stop because of an injury, which was awful, but even after that, she still came out and danced in group routines with the other pros. She’s just incredible, honestly, and I was so proud of her for pushing through everything!

This follows her recent post about sharing the happy news of her pregnancy with Joe to her family in Australia.

Dianne shared a sweet video on Instagram of the moment she told her parents, who are in Australia, that she and Joe are going to have a baby. They spoke over FaceTime when she shared the news.

I just saw the cutest video! Dianne and Joe were sharing their baby’s sonogram on camera, and you could just see the shock and joy on Dianne’s dad, Mark’s, face. It was a really sweet family moment.

Then, Mark’s mother, Rina, appears on screen and is overjoyed by the news, confirming to Mark that it’s actually happening.

In the video, Dianne and Joe also share the good news with her brothers and their families, who live with them in Australia.

First, we meet Dianne’s brother, Andrew Buswell, his fiancée Melissa Lejman, and their two children: four-year-old Zofia and 17-month-old Roman.

Soon after, Brendan Buswell learns the news with his wife, Annabella, and their children, Mia Isabella, who is 15, and Billy, who is 13.

Dianne shared a video with the caption: ‘Being apart from family is tough, especially now 💖, but I’ll always cherish their reaction.’

She explained that her dad was really surprised at first and thought they were joking. She also mentioned @joe_sugg.

Dianne responded to online criticism by sharing a confident dance video, following her and Stefan’s departure from Strictly Come Dancing.

Dianne dedicated the Instagram update to those who ‘can’t watch a pregnant girl dance.’

Performing at home she showed off some moves to the beat before doing a cartwheel. 

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I always say, listen to your body – and the music! I recently shared a little dance on Instagram, and some people questioned it because I’m pregnant. Honestly, when I hear a good beat, I just have to move. It feels amazing, and I believe staying active is a wonderful part of pregnancy, as long as it feels right for you!

Fans flooded the comments section with love heart emojis as they showed their support. 

Dianne strongly denied suggestions that her partner Stefan left the show early as part of a plan to support her pregnancy, responding to the claims at the end of last month.

Dianne responded to claims that her pregnancy was fake on Instagram, explaining that she actually has more energy than usual despite being pregnant.
