Strictly Come Dancing star Luba Mushtuk has revealed a surprise new career away from the much-loved BBC dance contest. Luba, 33, who joined the team of Strictly professionals in 2018, is enjoying working on her new interest in her spare time, which she revealed in a chat with the Manchester Evening News.
Luba, 33, has a love of acting and is being helped by her friend Rose Ayling-Ellis, the reigning Strictly champ who lifted the Glitterball trophy with Giovanni Pernice last year. Rose, who broke through barriers as the first deaf contestant to take part in the show, played Frankie Lewis in BBC soap EastEnders for two years.
"I have a love of acting - it's my new boyfriend," said Luba. "It's something I'm extremely passionate about just lately. I'm very new to all of it but I've always wanted to know how it's done."
