Bobby Brazier rehearses for Strictly with Dianne Buswell
EastEnders actor Bobby Brazier has received warm praise from dad Jeff after his Tango on Saturday night, which saw him and Dianne Buswell rank at number six on the leaderboard.
The Brazier patriarch also expressed his gratitude to 34-year-old Dianne for her efforts with his son.
Taking to Instagram, TV presenter and former Shipwrecked star Jeff gushed in view of 290,000 followers: “So proud of @bobbybrazier & @diannebuswell.
“Thank you to those who voted. Bob gets another week to discover himself as a performer, the perfect experience to continue his development and the privilege of learning from one of the very best.
“We’re grateful for you Dianne and for those that are behind them on this incredible journey.”

Last weekend, 20-year-old Bobby admitted he was “emotional” and yearning to give Dianne “a big cuddle” on the night.
“It has been so, so emotional all week but closing the show is a great privilege,” he told host Claudia Winkleman during his interview.
“Before, I was trying to get in the zone and I was bringing all these emotions up and I just wanted to give her a big cuddle.”
Dianne reassured him she understood the challenges he faced, empathising: “It was really difficult, I pushed you musically, it is not easy to hear and you worked so hard to hear the music.”

The Aussie pro added: “[Bobby] has just been a massive rock this week so thank you!”
One Twitter (X) follower agonised: “I hope no issues with Dianne… This show does really test relationships.”
Meanwhile, others expressed concern last week over the differing heights of the duo, with Bobby towering almost an entire foot above his partner.
Some fans suggested Bobby had been struggling as he was forced to bend his knees to share some of the moves with her.
However, it looks as if the pair have bonded well behind the scenes – and earlier this month, Bobby confessed he’d “fallen in love” with his dance partner, before adding that she was like a “sister” to him.
Speaking at the Pride of Britain Awards, as reported by Mail Online, he gushed: “I could speak about Dianne all day. She’s just a diamond. You know what, I’m falling in love with her… I feel very lucky.”
He admitted he hadn’t been a perfectionist when it came to training sessions, mischievously explaining: “I’ve been taking as many breaks as possible, I’ve been napping as much as possible. Necessary digestive periods, I call it!”
However, he and Dianne have become firm friends nevertheless – and both have been receiving glowing praise from some viewers, with one Instagrammer, @em.higgins22, exclaiming of Bobby: “He needs to be cast as a young Mick Jagger in the Rolling Stones film!”
