Pregnant Dianne Buswell, who is expecting her first child with Joe Sugg, has some strict rules in place that she must follow due to still taking part in the BBC ’s Strictly Come Dancing, following her spectacular win last year.

YouTuber Joe and Strictly professional dancer Dianne are getting ready to grow their family, as they took to Instagram last week to announce that they were expecting a baby.

They also revealed the baby’s gender as Joe remarked, “Our little boy, we cannot wait to meet you,” in addition to revealing the big news.

Fans were unsure about how Strictly would handle Dianne’s pregnancy, until an insider revealed that “producers have a plan in place.”

Stefan Dennis, 66, from Neighbours, who could make it to the show’s final, has been chosen as Dianne’s partner.

The news of Dianne and Joe’s news has now been revealed to The Sun by an insider, who claims they met and were seen falling in love with one another during the run-up to the show in 2018.

Because no professional has previously been unknowingly pregnant while dancing during the contest, this is being referred to as the first Strictly baby. Because the show must go on, producers have plans in place, and there are several professionals who are ready to step in and take over right away.

Her bump was already very noticeable on Saturday night’s show, but it certainly didn’t seem to hold her back physically, most notably when she was lifted high on the shoulders of fellow pro Kai Widdrington as she held up the Glitterball.

“The BBC’s main concern is Dianne’s well-being and health, and they fully intend to take her through the process with regular checks from the welfare team.”

In a promotional video where she turned her back to the camera, Dianne gave a sweet nod to her baby boy. A sparkling silver dress with blue tassels was on Dianne. Some fans have assumed that she gave a sweet nod to her unborn baby boy by adding a silver choker, blue and silver drop earrings, and blue eyeliner to the look.

The caption for the photo, “There she goes again officially about the start of my 9th season,” was Dianne wrote in the caption. Tonight at 8:00 PM at bbcone @ bbcstrictly who is tuning in to @jessieefromtheblock will be the strictly launch show.

In the comments section, fellow Strictly pros and fans were quick to gush over Dianne and recent baby news. A very special picture, according to Amy Dowden, who is scheduled to return this year.

Another remarked, “The blue confetti, outfit, and eyeliner are sooo beautiful!” Third person gushed, “Another year of support for the BEST person, and now her lil boy can’t wait to see all the dances and magic you create as always.”

A popular DJ who “lit up the room everywhere he played” has sadly died, leaving his fans heartbroken.

DJ Tizer, whose real name was Tony Walsh, played in countless venues across Northern Ireland and abroad, building a reputation as Ireland’s number one Happy Hardcore DJ, according to his Facebook page. He was known for staging “old skool raves” and is credited for creating iconic nights in some of the most famous nightclubs and dance music venues in Northern Ireland.

Tony’s friends confirmed in a statement that he passed away on Saturday, and shared news of his death with others on social media. They stated, “I can’t believe we were actually writing this, and we have permission from the family to do it (before any rumors start, etc.),” despite being devastated to inform you that Tony Walsh a.k.a.

“Dj Tizer passed away on September 20th, 2010; he was a true gentleman and legend, and he will be greatly missed. The main character, TIZER X. Maximus and McD, deserves respect and love. “]sic]

Tony was a technical wizard, according to fellow NI DJ Micky Modelle, who would “just lit up the room wherever he played.” He shared a picture on social media that read, “I just flew to Ibiza today to learn of DJ Tizer’s passing.

“For 30 years, we were friends. In the beginning, we all found this to be inspiring. On the Scratch Master vinyl turntables, he was a technical wizard. At the time, I had never seen anyone better.

He “just lit up the room everywhere he played,” and we both have many fond memories of our performances. For the 30 years of friendship and memories we shared, I’m grateful.

A heartbreaking tribute was shared on Facebook by Jason Henderson, a friend of DJ Tizer and a local DJ himself. What an absolute hysteria was to have been asked to play along one of my heroes, he wrote. I’m writing this morning, which is insane.

My heart is truly broken, she says. A norn iron legend about this man. When we were younger, we all had his tapes. My fingers blur as I watched the man scratch the vinyl. One of the godfathers has been lost in the dance scene, lol! Today, you and Mallorca Lee will be rocking in heaven. I’m devastated.

“This guy gave me the opportunity to play alongside him at a few gigs.” The adrenaline rush, the excitement, and buzz will never go away. I’ll always be able to play alongside one of my heroes. I appreciate Tony Walsh, DJ TIZER! “Legends NEVER Die.”

Belfast Underground Records’ founder and director Dilly Gary Dillon also wrote in a moving tribute, “I’m heartbroken this morning to hear about Tizer.” He was such a wonderful oldskool DJ.

Tony and I had a history of working together at the start of the company, but it was long before he and Eddie sold the store. There are so many wonderful memories and bizarre tales from the past. “Rest easy mate.”

One user wrote, “I believe I had all his tapes and I was convinced off being his No1 fan.” Another user also shared their own tributes. The King of Mixing and the King of Happy Hardcore are the chipmunk king and king of scratch. Kick in the Beat Up, Mate. RIP Tizer

Another described a man who “inspired a whole generation of Northern Irish children to transition to harder styles.” You were the benchmark and the figurehead, not to mention “The Scratch Master.” Tony Walsh, God bless you.

An entire generation of ravers & djs was inspired by a third post that read, “Absolutely shocking news, was an icon of the Happy Hardcore scene. 100% the catalyst for my early involvement with Hardcore, and I was always anticipating his upcoming mixtapes. Years later, I was given the honor of performing alongside him, which still boggles my mind. To all of his family and friends, this is a terrible loss. RIP Tizer

Travis Barker’s daughter Alabama hits back at claims she shared miscarriage for attention

Alabama Barker, the 19-year-old daughter of Blink-182 star Travis Barker, has refuted claims that she was looking for attention after heartbreakingly admitting she had a miscarriage.

Alabama Barker has hit back after she was cruelly trolled for sharing her pregnancy loss. The daughter of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker spoke out after she was accused of seeking attention.

Before swearing to refrain from social media, she made a decision to defend her decision to reveal her heartache. The 19-year-old took to Twitter to reveal that she had a miscarriage.

She wrote, “You know since I lost my baby, got cheated on, and also got hated on, I’d feel like … I’ll never go back to being the same person. Alabama was captured showing her stomach in a window reflection, along with tearful moments in the video.

Alabama announced shortly afterward that she would be disconnecting from social media. She displayed the message, “Deleting Instagram for a while, be back soon love you guys,” on a black screen.

The teenager also wrote, “Love you guys, be back soon, I’m deleting my tik tok for a while” in a similar post on TikTok. Alabama then responded to trolls who had offensive comments about her miscarriage.

In a now-deleted post that was viewed by the Shade Room, she wrote, “I have no idea how I could ever share something that is so significant for attention.” Whether or not I’m mistaken, I don’t need to post to prove it.

“My journey is my own, not a performative and not because someone else shared theirs.” Earlier this year, Alabama got into a spat with Bhad Bhabie and denied claims she had a relationship with Kylie Jenner’s ex, Tyga.

Tyga described it as the “dumbest s**t I’ve ever heard” on X. I’ve never been pregnant, never had an abortion, and have never been by myself with Tyga or Soulja Boy, according to Alabama’s official statement.

The notion of our personal relationship is completely fabricated, making it nothing more than a baseless, hopeless ploy to get attention.

However, the conflict escalated when the pair released diss tracks. Cry Bhabie from Alabama topped the US Spotify Viral 100 chart at number 5, while Ms. Whitman and Bhad Bhabie responded with Ms. Whitman.

She made a reference to Alabama Whitman, the True Romance hero. The Kardashians and Alabama’s dad Travis and his in-laws, The Kardashians, were dragged into the drama by Had Bhabie, real name Danielle Bregoli.

The intro samples Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband, Kanye West’s Carnival, and even stirs up the rumour that Kourtney Kardashian started dating Travis after Kim rejected him.

Why is this b***h so obsessed with me? and Travis previously mentioning that he had a crush on Kim, “Your stepmom burnt out, why she took her sister’s second-hand”?

She also rapped about how Alabama was “kicked out of the Kardashian house” because of her “stanky p***y” behavior. In December, Bhabie accused Alabama of stealing her ex-boyfriend Le Vaughn, which Alabama has denied, and then began a feud.

Jessie J shares plan to leave UK before cancer surgery as she reveals secret struggle

Following her performance on Strictly Come Dancing, Jessica J discusses her struggles with the UK and how she needs a break as she gears up for another operation.

Jessie J has opened up on her social media and discussed her struggles with the UK as she continues to receive treatment for breast cancer, and discusses how she needs a break from ‘anti-social’ London.

The singer, 37, returned to TV on Saturday evening for a performance on Strictly Come Dancing, following her mastectomy in June. She took to social media shortly after the performance and spoke about how she needs a break from the UK before she plans to undergo more breast surgery in the coming weeks.

Jessie J said she misses ‘my community’ of LA, as she described London as a ‘distant’ and ‘isolating’ place. Posting to her Instagram, Jessie said: “I forgot how anti-social London is.

It’s really difficult to maintain a social life because I’ve been there for ten months. Man, I long for my neighborhood in LA. I might just reserve a flight and arrive before my surgery. I require some battery emoji.

Before her album release later this year, she delivered her song Living My Best Life on the Strictly Come Dancing launch show, where she performed it. Don’t Tease Me with a Good Time is the title of the new album.

After sharing that she had a breast cancer diagnosis in its early stages, the singer underwent the mastectomy in June. She claimed in a video that she had been diagnosed with early breast cancer and was holding on to the word.

“Cancer stinks in any way, but I’m holding on to the word “early.” It’s a very dramatic way to work as a boob. After my surgery, I’ll leave for a while before returning to the Summertime Ball with a lot of tits and more music.

Jessie has continued to perform after the procedure, including at Radio 2 In The Park this month, Ronnie Scott’s club in London, and a festival in Sao Paulo.

She wrote, “Today is the 12th week since my mastectomy for breast cancer and 4 weeks until my next surgery,” in a video she posted at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London.

I only feel as though I’m actually processing what I’ve accomplished in the five months since receiving my diagnosis. I’m not ashamed to admit how proud I am of myself.

After they discovered more breast cancer in other locations following my MRI, they conducted 5 more biopsies in the afternoon, which was the showcase. At this point, no one was aware. Knowing what I have endured and overcame just makes watching this back feel so special.

In everything that life has given me this year, I have done and am still doing my best. I’m genuinely so inspired. Although I’m still very much in it, I believe it’s crucial to honor these milestones. So, that’s what I’m doing right now!

“For me”! For the first time in three months, I’m going to the gym before performing for thousands of fans live at the Brazilian festival @thetownfestival. Anyone who is going through a difficult time and still having to show up for life, have children, have jobs, and other people. I properly hug you.

EastEnders legend Cheryl Fergison, who is known for playing the iconic and loveable Heather Trott in the soap, has shared a new health update after she suffered from a severe stroke in May.

The actress, 60, gave an update on her health on Instagram where she revealed she can walk a ‘certain amount before’ she gets ‘puffed out’ as she told a sweet story about an encounter with a lady at her local shop.

Cheryl said, “Well, I just had to come on and tell you something that has planted a seed in my little brain. And hoped it will inspire a seed in one of our industry’s producers, TV personalities, etc. I can walk a certain distance before getting puffed out, according to the legend, and I can now walk with a stick after having a brilliant stroke.

Cheryl continued, claiming that she went to her neighborhood Premier store to exercise because a woman there acknowledged that she had read her book.

She stated, “This lady was there. I’m guessing it’s around my 50s to 60s or something similar. Anyway, she stated, “Oh my gosh, I just finished reading your book.” And I said, “Oh, have you?” What made you discover it? You’ve had a life, haven’t you, she said? And I a little bit said “yes”

Before Cheryl said, “Let’s make this happen, it would be absolutely fantastic,” the soap star continued by saying how the woman suggested she should make it into a series or a movie. Anyway, the thought was from a lovely woman in my neighborhood store.

She had a headache earlier this year, and she had a stroke.

Speaking exclusively to the Mirror ahead of the release of her explosive new memoir, Behind The Scenes last month, the mum of one explained how she was at home watching TV when she first realised something was wrong.

She said, “I started to feel funny and have a terrible headache in my head.” I slept through it, but I couldn’t stop myself. My balance completely lost when I woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom. My entire right side felt tingly, heavy, and numb.

Cheryl dubbed her son Alex out of fear of the worst. He observed the symptoms and worked with elderly people. He immediately dialed an ambulance.

Cheryl, who underwent surgery for womb cancer in 2015, was taken to a Blackpool hospital where she was later declared unwell. She still uses a stick despite the illness making her unable to walk.

My brain needs to be rewired, I said. At first, I was unable to even pick up a penny, according to Cheryl.

Your balance is lost because you can no longer coordinate your hands and walk correctly. You become enraged and it’s frustrating. However, I’ve started to recover and am “moving on” in rapid progression.

Strictly Come Dancing pro Nancy Xu ‘upset’ over launch show ‘snub’ from producers

Strictly Come Dancing made its first appearance for its new series last night, and Nancy Xu, the star, is said to be “incensed” by what producers have described as a “snub” this year.

Professional dancer Nancy Xu is said to have found it “really jarring” not being given a celebrity partner on Strictly Come Dancing this year. The pairings for the latest series were unveiled in last night’s pre-recorded launch show.

Nancy, 34, who joined the BBC show in 2019, is one of the pros without a partner. It was revealed during the launch that Luba Mushtuk, Michelle Tsiakkas and Neil Jones will just be part of the group dances too. Gorka Márquez had already announced that he wouldn’t have a partner.

Although it’s the first time that Nancy hasn’t had a partner on the main show in five years, it marks the second time that she’s not reunited with a celebrity from a Christmas special. Her partners from the last two festive specials have both returned for the main show but partnered with other pros.

She danced with Gladiators star Harry Aikines-Aryeetey in last year’s Christmas special, with them runners-up in the competition. Harry is back for the main series this year, but he has been partnered with Karen Hauer instead.

Similarly, Nancy won the festive special in 2023 with former EastEnders cast member Jamie Borthwick but they weren’t partnered together when he later returned. He was paired with Michelle when he competed on the main show last year.

A source told the Sun that Nancy is “upset” to have been “benched again” after a “brilliant run” with Harry in the special. Before referencing Jamie having also returned with a different partner, they said: “It’s not the first time it’s happened and she’s said she thinks there may be some kind of deeper issue she’s not aware of.”

The source claimed that Nancy “understands” that pairing her with someone she’s already danced with would result in an “advantage.” She claimed she is unsure about why she doesn’t have a partner, though.

They went on to mention Nancy having competed with Shayne Ward on Strictly last year. The source said: “She is absolutely incensed by it all and has said she can’t work out what she’s done to make producers snub her – especially because she did so well with [Shayne] last year.”

According to the source, Nancy “loves” the show and “gives it her all” in her first two years on Strictly. They remarked, “So it has been really jarring for her to be left out in the cold again for this series.” According to the source, Nancy has been talking with coworkers about the situation and is “not happy” when she tells people backstage.

Prior to the launch episode, it was reported that Nancy and Luba wouldn’t have celebrity partners this year. A source had told the Sun that they were “disappointed” but acknowledged that not everyone is able to have a partner, adding that the pros on the show are “grateful for the gig”.

Some fans shared disappointment over Nancy not having a celebrity partner this weekend. They reacted to the news in the comments section of a post promoting the launch show that she shared on Instagram yesterday.

Sad you don’t have a partner this year, one person wrote in response to her. one of my favorites. Another fan shared their thoughts by saying, “Gutted you’ve got a celebrity this year,” in a message to Nancy earlier this weekend.
