As well as being joyous television, we can also thank Strictly Come Dancing for producing lots of lovely new couples (we won't mention, ahem, the Strictly curse here). And 2018 was a particularly good year for match-making because it brought together YouTuber Joe Sugg and pro dancer Dianne Buswell. After splitting from her boyfriend, Dianne and Joe's romance blossomed and, the day after the Strictly final, the pair revealed their relationship to the world with an adorable Instagram post. Here's a look back at how it all started, and all the major milestones they've experienced together since, starting with the most recent update:

February 4 2021: Dianne and Joe just revealed they've reached another major relationship milestone: they've bought their first home together. The couple shared the happy news on Instagram, with Dianne writing "new adventures" next to a picture of them posing in the enormous garden. Joe shared the identical picture but also added one of him cracking on with some DIY. "Little life update.🏡 (No emerging daffodils were harmed in the taking of this photograph)," he wrote.

Fellow Strictly dancer Oti Mabuse replied to Dianne, "Congratulations babe! Massive massive grown up couple steps! Super proud of you, remember having this conversation," while Amy Dowden said she can't wait to "come around for a girly night".

Huge congratulations you two!

We really enjoy each other's company so much and whatever happens, happens."
