As I delve into this heartwarming tale of resilience and camaraderie unfolding on Strictly Come Dancing, I can’t help but be moved by the journey of Chris and his partner Dianne. Watching them grow week after week is a testament to the power of perseverance and the transformative nature of dance.

On Sunday before the Strictly Come Dancing results, Tess Daly radiated nothing less than extraordinary beauty in a sleek, strapless black jumpsuit.

The 55-year-old television presenter shone brilliantly in an outfit made of velvet, adorned with shimmering floral patterns and wide-legged pants.

She styled her golden hair smoothly and chose a smoky shade for her eyeshadow, accentuating it with a glamorous array of cosmetics.

The star accessorized her outfit with matching silver heels and jewelry, featuring eye-catching dangle earrings.

Tess posed ahead of the tense show with her co-star Claudia, 52, and judge Motsi Mabuse, 43, who looked incredible in a glamorous black peplum style dress and orange cropped jacket.

Claudia brought the glamour in a sparkly black mini dress with puffed sleeves.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I elevated my stature with a pair of striking white, fluffy platform heels, complementing the look with a dazzling assortment of golden bangles and rings that mirrored their luster.

A multitude of admirers inundated Tess’s comment area with compliments on their collective stunning appearance, even professional dancer Jowita Przystal contributed by posting three heart-eyed emojis.

‘Beautiful as ever! It fascinates me how you can have two different looks in the same night!’

‘Best of luck…looking divine ❤️’

‘Looking fabulous Tess another beautiful jumpsuit and oh my Claudia’s shoes❤️’

Following the Saturday night performance, fans expressed their disapproval on social media about Tess’s remark towards Chris McCausland.

Audience members caught the host making an awkward mistake during the live quarter final broadcast on BBC One, and they didn’t hesitate to express their thoughts on social media.

In the realm of musical weeks, Chris (age 47) and talented dancer Dianne Buswell (age 35) left spectators astounded with their captivating Quickstep dance routine, set to the melody of “You’re The Top” from Anything Goes.

Following their performance that netted them a score of 32, Chris and Dianne strolled towards Tess, who was 55 years old, and it was audible to the crowd as the presenter inquired of Chris, “Do you notice her happiness with you?

Fans were left confused, pointing out that Chris is blind due to retinitis pigmentosa.  

A multitude of enthusiasts flocked to the platform commonly referred to as Twitter, where they expressed their opinions and accompanied their posts with popular GIFs depicting sideways glances (often indicating discomfort) and numerous ‘face-palm’ emoticons.

Initially, Chris confessed that he was ‘scared’ to take part in the show as its first visually-impaired participant. Yet, swiftly, he won over viewers’ hearts.

In my twenties and thirties, a genetically inherited condition called retinitis pigmentosa gradually took away my sight. This journey has been a part of my life story as a comedian.

During an interview with The Big Issue, he explained how he had to face the change. He said: ‘when you’re losing your sight gradually, there’s never a clear moment when you are forced to deal with it. 

I prefer not to have any connection with matters related to it. For instance, instead of using a cane, I’d rather act as if I can see without one.

‘But you get into more trouble pretending there’s nothing wrong.’

In the quarter finals, Chris and his dance partner Dianne donned sailor-themed costumes while their supporting dancers leaped and bounded about them, adding energy to their dominance of the stage.

Following their act, they conversed with Claudia Winkleman, aged 52, behind the scenes, and Dianne appeared on the verge of tears while discussing the significant growth Chris has displayed during the course of the show up to this point.

Claudia asked Chris: ‘How did you find it? And did you welcome the extra dancers?’ 

He responded with: ‘It feels good to dance. It’s joyful, you know? That was really fun. It’s been a good week doing it all.’ 

He added: ‘Having the extra dancers, it’s… I can’t see them around me, but it’s the idea of what it is around me. Especially because it feels like you’re bringing a proper show.’ 

Turning to his dance partner, Claudia asked: ‘Dianne, you say he blew your mind this week?’

She started by saying, “He indeed performed that action. You’ve just witnessed it. I am incredibly thankful for the helpful critique the judge provided -” but Chris interjected with a humorous response, “Oh, I’m not grateful at all!

Dianne appeared quite moved as she went on to extol the virtues of the star, remarking: “Yet it’s important to remember that for about two decades, Chris has found solace right here (indicating the floor).

It touches my heart deeply when he rises, as this symbolizes a significant hurdle we’ve both managed to conquer. You truly excel!

Audience members were moved by the interaction and expressed their thoughts on X, which used to be known as Twitter, regarding Dianne’s emotional words.

One remarked: ‘Dianne has made me emotional taking about how much chris has improved in the competition you can tell they have the best friendship and love seeing it on the dance floor each week.’
