Vito Coppola has declared his 'love' as his future work alongside his Strictly Come Dancing co-star Dianne Buswell was teased.

The professional dancers have recently wrapped up touring the country together, having formed a close bond while working together on the hit BBC One dance show.

Dianne, 36, and Vito, 32, revealed back in May 2024 that they would be going on a joint tour, titled Dianne and Vito: Red Hot and Ready.

Confirming the news at the time, the dancers shared a fiery poster for the show and said: "We are so, so excited to finally introduce you all to our brand new show DIANNE & VITO 'Red Hot and Ready' presented by Burn the Floor."

They added: "We’ve been working on this project for such a long time and we cannot wait to share this special show with the whole of the UK in 2025!"

The string of shows across the country officially kicked off last month (June), with the tour coming from those behind Burn The Floor, a live dance show which has performed around the world, with Strictly's creative director Jason Gilkison behind what fans got to witness during the show.

But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end, and on Saturday (July 26), Dianne and Vito performed their last show of the tour, which came just before rehearsals gor underway on Monday (July 28) for the 2025 series of Strictly.

As their time on the road sunk in, Dianne took to Instagram and shared a video in which she could be seen heading out onto the stage for the last time for her final bows alongside Vito.

Captioning the post, the Australian star shared: "The show finished and we jumped straight into another strictly season I haven’t really had a chance to reflect until now.

"This moment right here was so special. Vito and I want to thank every single person who took the time to come and see our show we genuinely can’t belive the response and we are so grateful to you all."

She the rounded off their message by adding: "This was our final bow ……… for now." Vito was quick to respond, as he commented on the post: "LOVE LOVE LOVE." Dianne then responded with a string of heart emojis.

But before Red Hot and Ready ended, Vito and Dianne were watched by a familiar face for one last time. Vito's last dance partner, actress Sarah, was keen to show her support for the Italian star and shared a photo of their reunion on social media.

The pair looked as close as ever as they embraced, with Miranda star Sarah captioning the snap: "So happy to see you - my beautiful @vitocoppola. I am so, so proud of you shining away in the incredible @dianneandvito show congrats to @diannebuswell all of the amazing cast and @jasongilkison."

Vito was quick to respond to the post, simply writing: "Trillyyyyyyy," which is his nickname for Sarah, alongside a string of red heart emojis.

Fans were also rushing to comment with delight at seeing the pair back together. @maxbiddle98 said: "You two were the perfect partnership! It's so good to see you reunited."

@hadderstrilly commented: "Ahh missed you so much! So happy to see you reunited with vito! Hope you are doing well! so happy to see this pic." @kirstenmccx wrote: "Omg my faves!! So happy to see you both reunited, look at the happiness from you both."
