Strictly’s Dianne Buswell ‘Fights Back Tears’ in Heartfelt Message to Chris McCausland

Dianne Buswell shared an emotional moment as she reminisced about her Strictly Come Dancing journey with comedian Chris McCausland, weeks after their historic win in the 2024 series. The duo made history as the first partnership featuring a blind contestant to claim the Glitterball trophy, a triumph that left both in awe.

The pair were crowned champions on December 14, beating finalists Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola, Tasha Ghouri and Aljaz Skorjanec, and JB Gill and Lauren Oakley. Reflecting on their victory, Chris described the experience as “astonishing,” while Dianne expressed gratitude for their shared journey, as reported by the Manchester Evening News.

Recently, Dianne discovered a small reminder of their time together while cleaning out her Strictly dance bag—a KitKat, part of a lighthearted tradition they shared. During their training, the duo often entertained fans by playing games, including the popular “guess the flavor of the KitKat,” where Chris would challenge Dianne to try unique chocolate flavors he sourced.

Sharing a photo of the KitKat on her Instagram Story, Dianne wrote: “Cleaning my Strictly dance bag out! Found a KitKat. Made me [face holding back tears emoji].” Tagging Chris, she added, “@chrismccauslandcomedy shall we get together soon and do another episode?”, according to the Express.

Their playful dynamic extended beyond the dance floor. In a video recorded before Christmas, Chris humorously confronted Dianne about chocolates her father, Mark, had bought for him during a trip to Belgium. Dianne confessed to eating the chocolates herself, joking that Chris had “enough” in his bag. The moment showcased the pair’s easy camaraderie.

Dianne also hinted at the end of their KitKat guessing game, saying, “Chris, I don’t want to get you emotional but this might be our last ‘guess the flavor of the KitKat.'” With characteristic wit, Chris responded, “I think you’re lucky to have this and so are the people at home.”

Their win was celebrated widely, not just for their dancing but for breaking barriers and showcasing perseverance. The duo’s connection, humor, and shared experiences resonated deeply with fans, making their victory all the more meaningful.

As Dianne and Chris reflect on their remarkable journey, their story continues to inspire, proving that determination, partnership, and a sense of humor can lead to extraordinary achievements
