JOE Sugg sent Strictly tour co-star Graeme Swann reeling after walloping him in the face with his foot when a dangerous dance move went badly wrong backstage.

The 27-year-old YouTube sensation was being twirled around in the air by pro dancer Johannes Radebe when the painful accident happened before today's matinee show.

While Joe was whirling around, with pro dancer girlfriend Dianne Buswell, 29, supervising and Graeme looking on in wonder, he caught the cricketer square in the face.

The force was enough to spin the 34-year-old bowler around, with footage showing him staggering off into the wings.

However, the accident can't have been too bad, as Joe posted a video of it on Instagram, writing: "Just a casual pre-show warm up with @johannesradebe."

South African dance star Johannes also shared the footage - though, perhaps tellingly, Graeme didn't.

The whole Strictly tour crew, including Stacey Dooley, Ashley Roberts and Dr Ranj Singh, is in Glasgow at the moment.

They are performing two shows at the SSE Hydro today, having finished one at 2.30pm and with one at 7.30pm to come.

But while there is plenty of work taking place, Joe and Dianne appear to have been lost in their own loved-up world, posting a series of pictures of them in one another's arms.

They are pictured cuddling, and in one recent post, Dianne is seen getting a head massage from Joe's feet - grossing out their Strictly co-stars.

As she closed her eyes Lauren Steadman walked behind them in a white robe and asked: "What are you doing?"

Dianne replied: "He's giving me a head massage."

A stunned Lauren could then be heard saying: "What the hell?... Hope they're clean."

The massage comes after the pair left the Strictly tour hotel following a string of bust-ups with their co-stars over their constant public displays of affection.

After arriving in Liverpool recently, the couple shunned the tour’s pre-paid accommodation at the Hilton Hotel and booked into the plush five star Titanic.

Rooms inside the boutique establishment start at £105 a night, with Joe and Dianne opting for the most luxurious suite at £450 per day.

A source said: “Joe and Dianne were reeling after realising everyone on the tour was getting sick of their non-stop snogging."
