Strictly Come Dancing duo Dianne Buswell and EastEnders star Bobby Brazier melted fans' hearts when they reunited for a 'special' visit to a care home. The pair, who wowed audiences with their performances during the previous season finale, offered residents an impromptu dance showcase.
Dianne posted snippets from their heartwarming visit on her social media profile. The caption read: "Today was just pure joy. To see how happy they all were to have us really was special. I got to have another little dance with the Bobsta. Still didn't quite get that lift tho did we? Thanks for having us."
Their fans were thrilled by the sweet reunion and expressed their delighted reactions online. One viewer using the handle @buswe1l commented, "The reunion we all knew we needed." Meanwhile, @abbinoone chimed in with: "You can just tell you will have completely made their day. This is so lovely." Another fan, @Mica_sky, wrote: "Awww this is the sweetest thing bless them.", reports the Mirror. Adding to the expressed admiration, Bobby's father Jeff Brazier also shared his sentiment: "A million [heart]'s YES."
In a heartwarming video, as reported by the Express, Dianne and Bobby were seen engaging with care home residents, sharing dances and even attempting the iconic Dirty Dancing lift to the delight of onlookers. The residents showed their appreciation by scoring the duo's performance, awarding them several perfect 10s and a seven.
Last year, audiences were captivated as Bobby and Dianne twirled their way to the Strictly Come Dancing final on BBC, competing against talents like actor Layton Williams with partner Nikita Kuzmin, and Ellie Leach paired with Vito Coppola. In a nail-biting finish, Bobby secured a total of 117 points from the judges for his final performances.
However, it was Ellie Leach, the ex-Coronation Street actress, who triumphed as the winner, taking home the coveted Glitterball trophy.
