BBC Strictly's Hamza Yassin shares struggle to find love as fans of TV series beg him for a date

Strictly Come Dancing's Hamza Yassin has admitted that he has struggled to find love in his personal life. The news may come as a surprise as the 32-year-old has been wowing audiences with his dances on the BBC One show and he's even had fans messaging him for dates.

The wildlife cameraman and presenter has opened up on how he lives in such a remote area that his closest shopping town is two-and-a-half hours away. He admits that living so remotely and needing to constantly travel for work throws a big spanner into the works when it comes to finding love.

"My job doesn't really allow for a relationship. How can you sustain a relationship, like: 'I’m sending you a text message from a satellite phone, because I’m in the Arctic for two months.' It’s more of a job kind of problem, rather than a place, though the place definitely adds to it," Hamza told The Guardian.
