Katya Jones has been flooded with support and messages from excited fans as she was seen making a major move away from the ballroom.

The Strictly Come Dancing star was previously confirmed as returning to the hit dance show in the professional dancer line-up later this year.

Alongside Katya, returning for series 23 of the BBC One dance contest are Dianne Buswell, Nadiya Bychkova, Amy Dowden, Karen Hauer, Neil Jones, Nikita Kuzmin, Gorka Marquez, Luba Mushtuk, Jowita Przystal and Johannes Radebe.

Completing the line-up will be Aljaž Škorjanec, Kai Widdrington, Nancy Xu, Carlos Gu, Lauren Oakley, Michelle Tsiakkas and Vito Coppola.

But before returning to the Strictly bubble, Katya has been keeping very busy. Not only has she been appearing on Dancing with the Stars Belgium as a judge, she's also found herself involved in a new music video.

The 36-year-old took to social media to reveal that she was a co-director and choreographer on the video for Nath Brooks' new track, I’m Not Waiting, and she also made a starring appearance. 

 

Sharing a clip on Instagram, Katya shared: "Was just waving for a cab... got caught dancing, co-directing, choreographing and accidentally starring in a music video. I’m Not Waiting by @nathbrooks is a vibe."

Strictly co-stars Kai Widdrington, Nancy Xu and Jowita Przystal were all quick to respond to the update, posting clapping and love heart eyes emojis in the comments section.

 

Fans, meanwhile, were also keen to share their messages. @rhiannon_dv said: "This looks amazing! I can’t wait to see the whole video." @strictly_forever.x commented: "I absolutely love this. Everything about it is so perfect!! The music, the dancing, the outfit."

It was back in April that Katya revealed her judging role. Sharing a picture of her holding onto a golden trophy while looking fabulous in a pink maxi dress, she wrote on Instagram: "I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be joining ‘Dancing with the Stars Belgium’ as a judge! @vtm.be. 

"It’s time to bring my passion and knowledge to the panel and celebrate the art of dance that unites us all, celebrates diversity and brings people together. Teach me some Flemish words that I can use on the show?"

And her Strictly co-stars were quick to show her support. Gorka Marquez said: "Amazing." Dianne Buswell commented: "Amazing congratulations my love." Amy Dowden cheered: "Go on queen! You
