Strictly Come Dancing professional Katya Jones has shared a sweet throwback snap of herself alongside fellow dancer Luba Mushtuk ahead of this weekend’s show in Blackpool.
The 33-year old Russian looked unrecognisable in the photo, in which the pair could be seen standing on the steps of the Tower ballroom some 20 years ago.
In a second image the duo recreated their original shot two decades on, appearing together in the same spot they had done as children all those years ago.

She then made a quick but brutal swipe at the former Arsenal star and said: “He’s gonna blame me for leaving the competition now!”
