Strictly’s Dianne Buswell shows off her huge bare baby bump after fake rumours she’s already given birth
DIANNE Buswell has shown off her blossoming baby bump after being forced to shut down rumours she’d secretly given birth.
Strictly star Dianne and long-term partner Joe Sugg jokingly shut down the rumours after an AI photograph of them cradling a baby was spread online.
The photograph was so realistic that family and friends had reached out to them to “congratulate them”, albeit confused they hadn’t been told.
Today, Dianne showed off her classic jokey charm with a TikTok video set to a sound clip from Friends.
In the video, Dianne pushes a baby stroller in front of the camera, while wearing a bright green jacket.
She then whips it back to reveal her bare baby bump in a sports bra and leggings and declares: “That’s right, still no baby!”
Dianne then covers the bump back up with the jacket and struts out of shot.
This isn’t the first time Dianne has combatted the internet with a comedic take, previously hitting back at trolls who questioned why her baby bump is always on-show.
She shared a TikTok video over the top of which she’d written one of the remarks: “But why do you always have your belly out?”
She had KC and the Sunshine Band’s That’s the Way (I Like It) playing in the background, as she captioned the video: “Because that’s the way I like it!”
Joe and Dianne announced they were expecting their first baby last September, shortly before Dianne returned to the dancefloor for Strictly Come Dancing 2026.
The returning champion dancer was partnered with Neighbours actors Stefan Dennis, however unfortunately the pair were forced to withdraw in week four because he sustained an injury.
Her participation made Strictly history as she was the first pro to compete while pregnant.
Dianne and Joe met thanks to the BBC competition, as they were partnered together on the sixteenth series of the show back in 2018.
They proved to be an impressive partnership as they managed to make it all the way to the final before falling at the final hurdle and losing out to Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton.
They confirmed their relationship shortly after, with Joe declaring in an Instagram post that he’d “got something better than the glitterball”.
