OHMYGOSSIP — Johannes Radebe is ready to find love.
The 34-year-old dancer – who last year finished runner up on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ alongside ‘Bake Off’ star John Whaite – admitted he has had “no time” to find a significant other because he has been so busy dedicating his life to dancing, and he has been “very “lonely”.
He said: “I honestly don’t know when I was last in a relationship. It’s been a while, a few years. I’ve been too busy. I’ve dedicated my life to dancing. So there’s been no time for a relationship. I live on my own and I’ve been very lonely the last couple of years. I’ve been working and I haven’t had time to socialise”
However, the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional – who has also danced with former ‘Coronation Street’ star Catherine Tyldesley and ‘Men Behaving Badly’ actress Caroline Quentin since joining the UK version of the series in 2018 – explained that he won’t use dating apps because it can be difficult since he is in the public eye.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I need to get out more! I need to go to a bar or a lovely restaurant and date. That would be nice. I wouldn’t do dating apps or websites. I’ve tried [dating apps], but they don’t work. And also, it’s hard as a public figure.
“I would like to meet someone at face value and get to know them. I went out to clubs with the other dancers when we were on the ‘Strictly’ tour. That was nice, but I don’t want to meet someone in a club!”
