Taking to Instagram, Dianne revealed that her father had been in contact as he wanted to get tickets for the Strictly final, in which he was certain that his daughter would be competing on.

The sweet message read: "Hi Dot, mum and I would like to be part of this year's Strictly Come Dancing grand final on the 17th December, we are talking about being part of your success by taking home the Glitterball, what do we need to do and what hotel would be good for us, can't wait, love you more, daddy."

Dianne joined the Strictly family in 2017, but sadly she has only reached the final on one occasion, when dancing with Joe Sugg, who would later become her boyfriend.

The star could be on-track to reach the final again this year, consistently blowing fans away with her routines with Kiss FM DJ, Tyler.

"If I win Strictly, I’ll change the colour completely," she told us. "I dyed my hair burgundy eight years ago and it's got even brighter. I love the energy colour brings and how it makes me feel.

"I used to have black hair and wore a lot of black because I was too shy to put on anything else," she added. "Deep down, I loved colour but was afraid to wear it. But when I found my inner confidence I really went for it."
