Carlos Gu has been supported as he issued a defiant message about how he feels touring the country in his own joint-headline show with his Strictly Come Dancing co-star Amy Dowden.
The pair of professional dancers, who are best known for being part of the line-up in the BBC One dance contest, but earlier this month, they started touring the country with their very own show, titled Reborn.
Amy and Carlos have joined forces for their own show which is being described as "inspirational", with the friends joined by a dazzling cast of world-class dancers and vocalists.
Days after opening the show, Amy took to Instagram with a glimpse at the show and shared: "Reborn, we are the on the road! The feeling on the stage the past two nights has been MAGICAL, EMOTIONAL, JOYFUL and THE MOST UNBELIEVABLE FEELING!
"To our incredible dancers, Andrea and of stage crew, THANK YOU. You guys are so talented and just beautiful energy to be around! 22 full on dance routines, from all styles, we pushed ourselves out side of our comfort zones and our creative director/choreographer queen, Beth we can never thank you enough."
The 35-year-old added: "This show is more than we ever imagined. You have unleashed a NEW AMY! @mr_njonesofficial thank you for your fabulous routines. Thank you to everyone who has come so far, your love, support and reaction has been everything! Thank you! Living the dream!"
Now, Carlos has reflected on being on the road having made it past the halfway point. He typed out on his Instagram: "I'm truly living the best life I could have ever imagined on this 'Reborn' tour.
"For those who know me well, touring hasn't always been my thing, but this time feels different. It's our story, our passing - something we're deeply connected to - and it makes every moment worth it."
He rounded off the post by adding: "I can't wait for those of you who haven't seen the show to watch it. It's a show not only about us, but you too!" Carlos then captioned the post to his main Instagram grid: “I’m deeply grateful to everyone who supported us—thank you for making our dreams come true."
Strictly co-star Karen Hauer was quick to respond, commenting: "Love you very much! You deserve to be free on stage and dance how you love and want to dance my beautiful friend." Former Love Island star Chyna Mills, who is the partner of Strictly's Neil Jones, gushed: "Proud of you. Can’t wait to see the show!!"
Neil himself, who is part of the creative team for the show, also said: "Never change Carlos, you darling are a true artist. See you on Friday."
Fans were also keen to show their support. @strictlyscarlos said: "So proud of you, can't wait to see the show." @clorscha wrote: "Very proud of you both!! The show was one to remember." @amandaslifeedit replied: "Thank you to you and Amy, for putting on such a beautiful show."
@sarah_mansfield239 posted: "Love this! You could see how much it means to you when I seen the show." @kirstytee25 shared: "How fabulous it was to see you in Glasgow. So delighted for you both. It was most emotional." @chloelorrainex added: "Yours and Amy show was beautiful and you have beautiful singing voice."
