Dianne Buswell has told that her latest huge achievement was 'always meant to be' as she admitted she 'manifested' her and Chris McCausland's latest success.
It's now been five months since fans voted in their droves for the pair to be crowned the 2024 champions of Strictly Come Dancing, having won the hearts of the nation on the dancefloor.
The pair were revealed as one of the BBC One dance contest's latest couples back in September, with Chris making history as the hit dance show's first-ever blind contestant.
Twelve weeks later, the final arrived and the pair were among the finalists competing for the Glitterball trophy and at the end of the night, hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman confirmed them as the winners of Strictly's 20th anniversary series.
There were emotional scenes for the pair, as well as disbelief, and while they have since gone their seperate ways, it was more recently that Dianne was once again seen celebrating another piece of joint success with comedian Chris.
Earlier this month, they won the memorable moment award, which is voted for by the public, at the 2025 Bafta Television Awards with P&O Cruises.
The winning couple's Waltz to the Liverpool anthem You'll Never Walk Alone, which they reprised in the Strictly final, was the performance that earned them the nomination.
Their emotive performance, which they recreated during the Strictly final back in December, saw Dianne leave the ballroom floor so her partner could dance on his own, before she returned to spinning in his arms moments later in tear-jerking scenes.
As Dianne took to the stage to collect the award, she was without Chris, who was committed to his stand-up tour, Yonks!, which he had already delayed to take part in Strictly in the first place.
She has since shared many updates about the special evening, and was seen discussing the win with Chris on an episode of their podcast, Winning Isn't Everything, which became their Strictly team name after Dianne's dad, Mark, discovered who her partner for the last series was.
Now, over on TikTok, Dianne has shared two different images - with one taken before the Bafta win and one after. Alongside the first picture, taken before, she said: "I took this pic before leaving to go to the BAFTAs. It's me manifesting holding the trophy."
The follow-up picutre then showed Dianne in the same locaion, but this time with the special blue glass trophy in her hand as she said: "And this was when I got home."
Captioning the post, the professional dancer simply shared a smiling face emoji and a red love heart and typed: "#manifestation." And the comments quickly came flooding in.
One follower said: "The most deserving of that bafta!!" Another commented: "You and Chris were deserved winners for this ward. A beautifully moving waltz."
A third shared: "Always meant to be! the blue to match your dress and your waltz dress as well. You deserve this so much." A fourth echoed: "It was meant to be!!" Another fan wrote: "So happy for you and Chris!!!"
A sixth added: "Hope you know how many people you and Chris have inspired in the last 9 months since you got paired up!! Honestly the best couple in strictly history!"
