lStrictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell is set to spend less time at her sprawling Brighton home with her boyfriend Joe Sugg as she begins filming series 23 of the dancing competition. But this year, her time away from her partner will be even more difficult than normal, since they have just announced they are expecting their first child together!
When she's not engaged with her gruelling training schedule in London, the professional dancer can retreat to her home on the south coast with YouTube star Joe, whom she met on Strictly back in 2018. The pair had previously lived in a four-bedroom detached home – which they described as a "big project" and listed for £1.35 million in 2023 – before upgrading to their modern £3.5 million five-bedroom Brighton property, formerly owned by football player Lewis Dunk, according to the MailOnline.
Joe and Dianne have plenty of space as the home boasts 7,741 square feet and includes five bathrooms, six reception rooms, a double staircase, an open plan kitchen and lounge overlooking the huge garden, an indoor heated swimming pool, a gym, and an impressive cinema room.
Fans got a glimpse inside the open-plan living area when they shared their pregnancy news. They carried an easel and a canvas into the centre of the room, where they painted stick figurines showing themselves holding hands with their future son. "Our little baby boy, we cannot wait to meet you," Joe captioned the heartwarming post.
The room featured sliding doors into their garden, where potted plants decorated the edge of their patio. The living space had been given lots of character thanks to the wall panelling, oversized mirror and textured furniture, including cream carpets, fluffy armchairs and indoor plants.
Dianne and Joe have given their followers several other peeks inside their home. Click through the gallery to see a full tour…

Dianne and Joe's stunning abode comes with some jaw-dropping upgrades, including a two-storey extension to the front and side of the home.
The first floor, ground, and lower ground floors also underwent a rear extension, and a detached front garage was also added after the Premier League player submitted plans to extend the property four months after moving in back in 2016.
Discussing the house move last year, she said: "I've only been in this house a few days because of being in Australia and having to go to work and all of that kind of stuff, so it hasn't actually been that long since we've been here. I'm slowly but surely getting things how I like it but there are still a lot of things around everywhere that I've not been able to do."
This photo shows a glimpse of their living room, which they've decorated with a huge rug on the floor to add comfort under foot, and a chic black TV unit on which they've placed reed diffusers and faux plants.

The living room has spotlights embedded in the ceiling to provide soft, even lighting, and a large three-piece sofa nestled in front of a mounted television unit. Below the screen sits an in-built fire, joined by the wood-burning stove.

Dianne and Joe are fortunate enough that their home has multiple rooms, one of which they're using as a guest bedroom/dressing room with an en-suite.
The professional dancer filmed herself in her en suite bathroom while assembling a new dressing table and revealed she had already moved most of her clothes into the built-in wardrobes.
The bathroom has tiles all over the shower area and also features hardwood flooring and white-panelled walls.

In another shot of the room, we can see it has big windows that let in plenty of natural light, a large, free-standing mirror, multiple storage options, high ceilings, an en-suite bathroom, and so far, is decorated with potted plants and wooden furniture.
Speaking about the room, Dianne said: "This is a really great-sized room for my dressing room. I do absolutely love it, it's just very white at the moment so I need to inject a bit of colour into it.
"There's a few finishing things, well, I say a few there's a lot of things I still need to do but it's going to get there, and everything takes time."

Speaking fondly of their former home, Joe explained previously: "We loved the last place, but it was a project, it was a big project.
"We haven't got the time to take on such a big project, so we found this place, we absolutely fell in love with it and now we are here."
