Strictly Come Dancing professional Dianne Buswell has officially confirmed an exciting new television venture with her long-term partner, Joe Sugg. The couple, who are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their first child together, have been secretly filming a brand-new series for Sky History.
A Creative Collaboration Born from Strictly
The pair first crossed paths on the iconic BBC dance competition in 2018, when Joe participated as a celebrity contestant. Their relationship has blossomed since, and now they are embarking on a professional project that combines their shared interests. Despite the imminent and joyous life change of becoming parents, Dianne and Joe have dedicated time to create this new show, demonstrating their commitment to both family and career.
Announcing 'Raiders of the Lost Crafts'
The announcement was made directly to their fans via a joint Instagram post. "WE'RE FILMING A TV SHOW!" they excitedly declared. The series, titled 'Raiders of the Lost Crafts', will see the couple travelling across the United Kingdom to delve into some of the nation's most cherished and traditional artisan skills.
"We're travelling round the country exploring some of the UK's most traditional crafts," their post elaborated. "We're still currently filming so here are some little sneak peaks but we already cannot wait to share this with you all!"
Behind the Scenes Sneak Peeks
Accompanying the announcement were captivating behind-the-scenes photographs that offered a glimpse into their adventures. One particularly charming image showed Dianne and Joe attempting pottery, a scene that playfully echoed the famous moment from the classic film 'Ghost'. Another snapshot documented their exploration of mysterious caves, hinting at the diverse and hands-on nature of the series.
Sky History, the broadcaster behind the project, enthusiastically engaged with the post, commenting: "Brushing up on our craft classes as we speak... So excited for this show." While an official premiere date for the series remains under wraps, the announcement has certainly generated significant anticipation.
Warm Congratulations from Friends and Fans
The comment section quickly flooded with messages of support and excitement. Fellow television personality and Made in Chelsea star Jamie Laing responded with enthusiastic applause. Dianne's Strictly Come Dancing colleague, professional dancer Amy Dowden, expressed her keen anticipation, writing: "can't wait", and added, "well done guys xxx".
A Joyful Year for the Couple
This professional news comes during an exceptionally happy period for Dianne and Joe. The couple shared the wonderful news that they are expecting a baby boy in a heartfelt social media post back in September. "Our little baby boy we cannot wait to meet you," they wrote.
In more recent updates on their popular YouTube channel, they have playfully teased that they have a name selected for their son. Joe hinted, "We can't really give any clues to it really other than I don't see this name really anywhere. I know some people who have it as their surname but it's also the sort of name that can be shortened." This blend of personal joy and professional endeavour marks a thrilling new chapter for the beloved couple.
