Nick Knowles and his Strictly Come Dancing partner Luba Mushtuk have firmly dismissed recent speculation about a supposed “feud” between them and Nick’s fiancée,

revealing that the rumours are entirely unfounded. The speculation, which emerged in the tabloids and on social media, claimed that there was tension between Nick,

Luba, and Nick’s fiancée, but both Nick and Luba have spoken out to clear the air and set the record straight.

The rumours first surfaced after Nick’s time on Strictly, where he and Luba, a talented and highly regarded professional dancer, formed a strong partnership.

Their chemistry on the dance floor was clear, and their hard work and dedication were evident in each performance.

However, the media picked up on an unsubstantiated story suggesting that Nick’s closeness with Luba during their time on the show had caused friction in his relationship with his fiancée.

Despite there being no evidence to support the claim, the rumour mill quickly began spinning, leading to speculation and online discussions about the nature of their working relationship.

In a recent interview, both Nick and Luba responded to the rumours with a strong message, emphasising that their partnership has always been professional and based on mutual respect.

“There is absolutely no feud, no tension, and no issue between any of us,” Nick said firmly. “Luba and I worked incredibly well together on Strictly—she’s a fantastic dancer and a wonderful person to work with. We both enjoyed the experience, and my fiancée has been incredibly supportive throughout.”

Nick also highlighted the importance of separating personal lives from professional ones, stressing that the close bond he developed with Luba was strictly that of a professional dancer and teacher.

“Luba and I spent a lot of time together rehearsing, but that’s just part of the job,” Nick continued. “We both have our own lives outside of Strictly, and my fiancée knows exactly what the nature of our working relationship is.”

Luba, too, weighed in on the speculation, expressing her frustration over the fabricated stories that had surfaced. “It’s disappointing when people create these stories out of nothing,” Luba said.

“Nick and I have always been focused on the show and our performances. There is nothing but respect and friendship between us.

I adore his fiancée, and she’s been nothing but supportive of Nick and me throughout this entire experience. It’s all just made up, and it’s frustrating that people feel the need to stir up drama where there is none.”

Both Nick and Luba made it clear that their focus was entirely on the positive aspects of their time together on the show and the achievements they were able to accomplish as a team.

Despite the challenges of the competition, including long hours of practice and the pressure to perform week after week, Nick has nothing but praise for Luba’s dedication to her craft and her professionalism. “Luba is an incredible teacher, and I was lucky to have her as a partner.

She made the whole experience fun and enriching, and I am very proud of what we achieved together,” Nick said.

The speculation about a feud was especially hurtful, not just to Nick and Luba, but also to Nick’s fiancée, who has always stood by him throughout his career.

“My fiancée is my biggest supporter,” Nick continued. “She knows how hard I’ve worked on Strictly, and she’s been right there with me, cheering me on every step of the way. There’s no tension, no issues—it’s all a misinterpretation by people who don’t know the full picture.”

Luba echoed these sentiments, saying that the rumours were particularly unfair to Nick’s fiancée, who has been nothing but understanding and gracious throughout the entire process.

“It’s not right for people to assume things without knowing the full story,” Luba said. “I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Nick, and we’ve had a great time together. He and his fiancée are happy and strong, and we all move forward with that in mind.”

In conclusion, Nick and Luba’s response to the feud speculation has been clear and emphatic: there is no conflict, no drama, and no bad blood. The rumours, they insist, are nothing more than unfounded gossip.

Both Nick and Luba have expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to work together on Strictly, and they have shown that their professional relationship remains strong and supportive.

Nick’s fiancée, too, has been a steadfast source of support throughout the entire journey, and the couple continues to move forward with a united front.

Fans and critics alike can now rest assured that there is no truth to the feud rumours, and that the bond between Nick, Luba, and his fiancée remains as strong as ever.
