BBC Strictlys Bobby Brazier gives Dianne Buswell kiss after gruelling 9 hour rehearsals

Strictly Come Dancing's Bobby Brazier was in high spirits despite a gruelling nine-hour rehearsal as he jumped for joy and kissed pro partner Dianne Buswell.

The EastEnders star, 20, reportedly shouted, “We are the winners of this year's Strictly Come Dancing 2023” as he pumped his fists in the air following the practice session ahead of next Saturday’s live show. Bobby was dressed casually as he left the rehearsal space – wearing a black T-shirt, blue football shorts, flip flops and a pair of black headphones slung around his neck.

After he jumped in the air and planted a kiss on Dianne, 34, he got into the backseat of a car for the ride home. Meanwhile Dianne also smiled broadly as she went her separate way – dressed in a long-sleeved black top with green jeans and a pair of black boots.

It comes as reports this week suggested Dianne has been 'distancing herself' from Bobby. The pairing have been a hit with Strictly judges and viewers thanks to their impressive routines.

But Dianne, who has been dating YouTuber Joe Sugg, 32, since the pair met on Strictly in 2018, is said to have put some space between her and dance partner Bobby.

An insider told the Daily Star: "Dianne told him, 'We are good friends, partners, nothing more'."

The source added Bobby was "totally smitten" with Dianne – but the feeling was not mutual. The young actor has spoken of his love for his pro dancer partner on a number of occasions recently. In an appearance on Lorraine, Bobby told Dainne: "There are times where I don't like you, there are times where I love you."

And on the red carpet at the Pride of Britain Awards, he told The Mirror : "I could speak about Dianne all day. She's just a diamond – you know what, I'm falling in love with her. She's just great. I feel very lucky."

And he also told how he "only has eyes" for Dianne, despite being flooded with messages from girls on social media.

Speaking to The Sun, he said: “I’ll pay attention to a few of them! But my eyes are focused on my Juliet, Dianne. She is unbelievable and performing every Saturday with her is so much fun.”

Meanwhile, at the weekend, it was also reported how Bobby was ‘still smitten’ with his model ex, Tillie Amartey, 20. The pair met through their modelling agency Unsigned but split in March. However, a source told The Mirror: "Bobby was really keen on her, but she decided to call time on the relationship, feeling they weren't compatible.

“There was no big row and, as they have always been on/off, Bobby hasn't given up. He is doing all the running at the moment.

“Bobby is messaging Tillie constantly in between rehearsals and has also asked her to the Strictly studio."

Before his relationship with Tillie, Bobby, known for his role as Freddie Slater in EastEnders, was rumoured to be dating model and influencer Liberty Love.
