Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell: Strictly stars hold hands as they leave after party together

Joe Sugg, 27, and Dianne Buswell, 29, lost out to Stacey Dooley, 31, and Kevin Clifton, 36, in the Strictly Come Dancing 2018 final.

After the show, the pair, who have been romantically linked throughout the series, attended the after party with their fellow co-stars.

The Strictly couple left the bash hand-in-hand as they walked along the pavement.

In photos uploaded by professional dancer Amy Dowden on Instagram, the two appeared upbeat despite losing out on the Glitterball trophy.

Joe and Dianne smiled to the camera as Amy took a selfie with the Strictly finalists.

During the show last night, Joe couldn’t stop gushing over Dianne and said he’s had the “best experience” because of the beauty.

“Every single part of this show has been the best experience ever because of Dianne,” he said.

“The only person’s opinion that matters to me is Dianne.”

The Australian dancer broke down in tears as she reflected on her time on the show with Joe.

“You have done me so proud,” she said as she struggled to hold back the tears.

“Thanks so much for all the time and effort you’ve put in, it’s been the best time of my life.”

Elsewhere on the show, Stacey and Kevin were left speechless when it was announced they had won.

Kevin was overcome with emotion as he burst out crying after winning the show for the first time, after previously being in four finals.

Speaking after lifting the Glitterball trophy, Stacey said: “[Kevin] you know how highly I think of you. I think you’re the biggest gem.

“It’s no coincidence that he’s been in the final as many times as he has.

“You’re patient, you’re talented, your choreography is like second to none. I’ve had the most incredible time.”

Kevin then told her: “Thank you so much not just for being so amazing and dancing so well and getting this.

“For being the most wonderful person to work with.”

He added: “You’ve spent every day in training working so hard and always with a massive smile on your face. You’ve just been so lovely thank you so much.”
