A former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer has reacted to Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell's victory saying, "we all know".

The pair were seen winning the BBC One dance contest over the weekend. Those tuning in to the final week of the 2024 run of the hit dance show saw all four finalists perform three dances each in a bid to be crowned this year's champions.

But it was comedian Chris and his professional dance partner Dianne who emerged as Strictly winners after they beat Miranda actress Sarah Hadland and partner Vito Coppola, Love Island star Tasha Ghouri and dancer Aljaz Skorjanec and JLS singer JB Gill and partner Lauren Oakley to lift the Glitterball trophy.

Upon being crowned winner, Chris was clearly stunned as he covered his mouth with his hand while Dianne squealed before they both broke into tears as they realised they won the competition, making history as Chris is the first-ever blind contestant.
