There'll soon be the pitter patter of tiny shoes on the Strictly dance floor.

Professional dancer Dianne Buswell has announced she's having a baby with her boyfriend and former Strictly partner, Joe Sugg.

The pair competed for the glitterball trophy in 2018 and have been together ever since.

They posted a video painting a picture of three stick figures to announce they're expecting a baby boy in 2026.

Dianne and Joe made it to the final of Strictly Come Dancing together in 2018

Although the couple didn't win their series, Joe spoke about their relationship afterwards, saying: "I may not have won the glitterball, but I've won something a million times more special."

Dianne went on to win Strictly Come Dancing last year with comedian Chris McCausland, who made history as the competition's first blind contestant.

She has been a professional on the show since 2017 and has been announced in the pro line-up again this year.
