Strictly's Bobby 'ready to get more intense' with Dianne despite backlash

Bobby Brazier has vowed to get more intense with Dianne Buswell after their 'near kiss' this weekend on Strictly Come Dancing.

The pair hit the headlines over the weekend with their steamy Argentine Tango, which led to host Tess Daly gasping "oh my goodness me" when their routine ended in a passionate near-kiss. Bobby has made no secret about his feelings for Dianne, previously telling The Mirror that he was "falling in love" with her. Speaking to us at the Pride of Britain awards, he said: "I could speak about Dianne all day… She's just a diamond – you know what, I'm falling in love with her. She's just great. I feel very lucky."

The pair appeared on Good Morning Britain today - with Dianne in the studio and Bobby streaming in from his car - where they discussed the competition, having made it through another week on the show.

Speaking on the ITV breakfast show this morning, Bobby was asked about his favourite routine so far, revealing it was last week's Argentine Tango. He said: "The choreographers were brilliant, the story, the intensity, it was brilliant," and when Ed Balls quizzed him about the passionate Rhumba, Bobby teased: "Listen, I'm ready to turn it all the way up. I enjoy it."

There had been lots of rumours about the pair's potential relationship, but Dianne shut it down today, adding: "The thing that I love is being able to tell a story. It's like acting. We did the dance the correct way if that's what's being said."

The pair received some positive feedback for their Argentine Tango. After their dance, Tess was quick to comment "Oh my goodness me! We've seen a different side to you Bobby! You were in character mode there, weren't you?!" with Bobby then replying: "I'm still there," as he tried to catch his breath. Tess responded: "Still in it! He's still in it, oh my goodness me. It's a modern take."

Speaking to Claudia Winkleman afterwards, Dianne added: "I could not do what I did out there without this amazing man behind it. He led me every step of the way and I felt so comfortable, so thank you Bobby for allowing me to do that." The pair scored a total of 30 out of 40, including a disappointing 6 from Craig Revel Horwood.

The pair have a great friendship with one another, with Bobby sharing recently: "We spend so much time together [in rehearsals] all day every day together." Dianne added: "So if we didn't like each other, that would be an issue!" with Bobby then admitting: "There are times when I don't like you, but then there are times that I love you." He continued: "I think I'm getting better at working harder. You're rubbing off on me in certain ways and I'm rubbing off on you in certain ways and I think that's why last week went so well."
