Strictly Come Dancing pro Nadiya Bychkova is giving DJ'ing a go for a very noble cause this weekend.

Without a celebrity dance partner in this year's series of the ballroom competition, the choreographer teased her career switch over on Instagram Stories yesterday (November 2).

Pictured smiling behind a mixing deck with a pair of headphones held to her ear, Bychkova teased: "Practise session before @discoliscious".

The event in question is raising money for Stonewall, a LGBTQ+ rights charity, with Celebrity Gogglebox regular Denise Van Outen also pumping out some tunes on the night.

Meanwhile, Bychkova uploaded a rare photo of her young daughter Mila to Instagram this week.

She lovingly wrote in the caption: "Had a very special guest @bbcstrictly dress run on Saturday. I loved having Mila with me at work, and it's so special to see how much she enjoys being @elstreestudios and seeing everyone.

"Also Mila keeps saying that when she'll grow up, she wants to be like mummy and dance @bbcstrictly it melts my heart. And it's the best thing you can hear as a working mum who just wants to give the best life and future for her child. I love you so much my baby girl."

Earlier this year, the dancer opened up on introducing Mila to her boyfriend and fellow Strictly pro Kai Widdrington, telling Loose Women that it took a while before the introduction happened, but when it did, it went well.

"It took quite some time, honestly. It’s not easy, because as you know, you protect your child as much as you can," she said.

"It took some time, but he proved himself in all the possible ways."

Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

Tickets for Strictly's 2024 live arena tour are available now.
