Dianne looked incredible in a black mini dress and knee-high boots as she posed for a selfie during rehearsals.

She wrote on the photo: “I was a trendy brunette again.”

Her new look was instantly compared to that of former Coronation Street star Kym Marsh.

Last week, Dianne was spotted sweating in tiny shorts with a shirtless Vito Coppola during rehearsals.

Fans of the series began saying: “I can’t stop watching!” as they were angered by the footage that was released on social media.

Ahead of the upcoming series of the BBC show, Dianne, 35, and Vito, 31, shared a joint Instagram post from the dance studio.

Alongside the steamy video, they wrote in their caption: “Ballroom and Latin dancer break.”

“We love what we do so much that it’s impossible to stop dancing.”

In the comments section, one of their followers joked: “I hope these are your ONLY costumes for the tour…”

Last week, the new celebrity contestants were seen arriving for rehearsals, a day after The Sun exclusively revealed this year’s full line-up.

Deaf Love Island resident Tasha Ghouri, 25, and Miranda sitcom star Sarah Hadland, 53, were all smiles outside London dance studios yesterday ahead of the new series of the TV dance competition.

They were followed by blind comedian Chris McCausland, 47, and former X Factor winner and Coronation Street actor Shayne Ward, 39, who flashed the peace sign.

The BBC also announced yesterday that EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick, 30, and triple Olympic swimming gold medallist Tom Dean, 24, would be taking part in the competition.

The popular BBC dance show has recently hit the headlines after a storm of controversy surrounding the alleged treatment of the show’s contestants.

And only six women have joined the upcoming lineup.

The results of an investigation launched by the BBC following allegations made against Giovanni Pernice by former contestant Amanda Abbington have not yet been published by the corporation.

Pernice denies the allegations and fellow dancer Graziano Di Prima has also left the show.

The competition is tough this year with only six women entered – and two of them have extensive dance training.

Tasha was forced to defend her dance experience after announcing she was joining the competition.

The star, who was dating former professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, took part in a number of major dance events before finding fame on Love Island.

Meanwhile, Sarah’s friend Doctor Who’s Alex Kingston previously said it would be “unfair” to compete with Sarah on Strictly.

Alex shared in 2019: “Sarah Hadland and I talked about wanting to do Strictly Come Dancing.

“Then I found out she was actually a trained ballet dancer. Wait a minute! That’s not fair!” So ​​I can’t do it during a season she’s in.
