Strictly Come Dancing’s Dianne Buswell<\/a> has confessed “I’m so upset” as she updated fans on her pregnancy<\/a> journey.<\/p>\n

The 36 year old Aussie dancer is expecting her first child with former Strictly<\/a> partner and YouTuber Joe Sugg<\/a>, with the couple preparing to welcome a baby boy next year.<\/p>\n

This impending arrival has already brought about significant changes, with Dianne confessing to last year’s Glitter Ball winner Chris McCausland that she’s struggling to fit into her clothes.<\/a><\/p>\n

During their Winning Isn’t Everything podcast, she lamented: “Honestly Chris, I can’t fit into any of my jeans. I’m so upset. I even went to the shops yesterday because I was like: ‘Right, I need to feel good about myself and I need to buy some clothes that fit.’<\/p>\n

“And I just didn’t even have it in me and I was like: ‘None of this stuff is doing it for me,'” reports Wales Online<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I tried some bits on, I’d go for a size up, turns out I’d need two sizes up, I was honestly gutted. I didn’t buy anything in the end, not a single thing. I came home and Joe said: ‘What did you buy.’ I was like: ‘I bought nothing.'”<\/p>\n

Dianne and Joe, 34, first crossed paths when they were paired together on the BBC<\/a> reality show in 2018, finishing as runners up to Stacey Dooley<\/a> and Kevin Clifton.<\/a><\/p>\n

The overjoyed pair announced their pregnancy news via an Instagram<\/a> post back in September, writing: “Our little baby boy [heart emoji] we cannot wait to meet you.”<\/p>\n

Dianne confessed that she’s “definitely getting bigger” as she disclosed the little one “kicks a lot”.<\/p>\n

She said: “He’s going to be a footballer. Or an Irish dancer, I’m not sure, one of the two. He kicks a lot, he’s loving life, he’s just getting bigger.<\/p>\n

“I just have this feeling he’s going to come out massive. I don’t know why.”<\/p>\n

Comedian Chris then interrupted and joked: “And Joe’s going to be like: ‘Who do we know that’s massive.'”<\/p>\n

Dianne replied: “What’s going on here. I just have this feeling, I don’t know why. I just feel like he’s going to come out like a big heffer.”<\/p>\n

The professional dancer departed Strictly earlier this month after her celebrity partner, Neighbours star Stefan Dennis<\/a>, suffered a torn calf muscle during their routine the preceding Saturday.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, Dianne insists she won’t be relaxing despite having additional free time and expecting a baby.<\/p>\n

Chris enquired whether she’s “a little bit glad” that she’s finished dancing. Dianne answered: “No! I’m actually not. I stress over chilling out, it’s not me, I never have been. And I’m going to take this back to my parents right.<\/p>\n

“I am not the kind of person who can chill out. For me already this morning I’ve been to the gym and I’ve done this and I’ve done that because I have to.<\/p>\n

“When I was younger, mum and dad, because they were such active people themselves, they were constantly cleaning, or doing this, or doing that.<\/p>\n

“I always felt guilty if they came into the room and I was sat down watching TV. As soon as they’d get in the room, I’d get up and move something around.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell has opened up about her pregnancy with her Joe Sugg and says…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":236372,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[243,64734,96,59,72359,69646,2531,2536,41609,30455,1598,27012,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-236371","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-bbc","9":"tag-dianne-buswell","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-gb","12":"tag-joe-sugg","13":"tag-kevin-clifton","14":"tag-pregnancy","15":"tag-reality-shows","16":"tag-stacey-dooley","17":"tag-stefan-dennis","18":"tag-strictly-come-dancing","19":"tag-talent-shows","20":"tag-uk","21":"tag-united-kingdom","22":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=236371"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236371\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/236372"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=236371"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=236371"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=236371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
