Strictly Come Dancing star Luba Mushtuk has celebrated becoming a British citizen, calling the moment "special".
Mushtuk, who originally comes from Russia, has been on Strictly Come Dancing since 2018. Now, she has taken to Instagram to celebrate the significant event of becoming a British citizen.
Mushtuk posted two photos of herself with the official documents, one with the Union Jack flag as a backdrop. She captained the post: "She is a British Citizen. Special," with Union Jack flag and heart emojis.
The comments were filled with her peers congratulating her, with Shirley Ballas writing: "Huge congratulations." Gorka Marquez, Carlos Gu, Zara McDermott and Helen Skelton, amongst others, all also left comments of congratulations and support.
Luba was paired with Waterloo Road actor Adam Thomas during this year's series of Strictly Come Dancing. However, she and Adam exited the show earlier this month, during week 7, after all four judges (Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and Shirley Ballas) voted to save Angela Rippon and Kai Widdrington.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
