Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell has broken her silence after sparking split rumours with Joe Sugg.
The Australian dancer, 34, had fans concerned after she became emotional following her performance with Bobby Brazier on Saturday night (October 14). After the couple closed the show with a fierce tango, Dianne was forced to hold back the tears while chatting to presenter Claudia Winkleman as she branded the EastEnders star, 20, her “rock”.
She said: “He has just been a massive rock this week, so thank you,” before she leant into his chest and hugged him. Fans took to social media after their performance to speculate whether it could be related to Joe, 32.

Dianne and Joe met when they were partnered together during the sixteenth series of Strictly in 2018 and have been together ever since. Despite concern the couple had split, they were both quick to squash the rumours after sharing a sweet glimpse of their life at home.
The pro dancer shared a photo of a roast that had been cooked by her YouTuber beau and later reposted a picture Joe had taken of her smiling next to her plate of food. He joked: “These are the best roast potatoes I’ve ever eaten in my life, Joe you are the best roaster of the potato the world’s ever seen, I love you so much more than I even did before!”
To which Dianne agreed: “It’s true best roasted potatoes I have ever had.” After their performance, Joe rushed to support his girlfriend as he gushed: “LOVED IT. INCREDIBLE” followed by heart emojis alongside a clip of Dianne and Bobby’s dance.
Dianne wasn’t the only one feeling emotional after their routine as fans spotted something “off” about Bobby, believing he didn’t seem like his usual self. After receiving 30 out of 40, Bobby told Claudia: “Just emotional. It’s been so so emotional all week.”
Fans took to social media to share their concerns, with one writing: “Bobby seemed upset tonight, especially when the judges were talking to him after the dance and going up the stairs, and when he was talking to Claudia he looked like he was gonna cry, I really hope he’s okay.” A second added: “I hope Bobby is okay. He just seemed very upset tonight. Not sure what they are eluding to when they said it’s been a hard week but I hope everything is okay. Xxx.”
Another said: “Bobby has been a rock this week… I hope no issue with Dianne and Joe Sugg. This show really does test relationships.” Someone else asked: “Has something happened this week? Is Dianne okay? Definitely don’t think it was about the dance.”
While a fourth echoed: “They both looked really sad tonight and neither have posted training footage on IG this week. I hope they’re both ok.”
