Speaking of her new series of Bluey Dance alongs she added: 'I always think that in the future, if I was to have my own kids, that they would be able to potentially watch this.
'It plays at the back of my mind and that's pretty cool.'
Earlier this month she revealed she's desperate to have children - but admitted the gruelling demands of her showbiz career are delaying her dreams of becoming a mum.
The star, who lifted the Glitterball Trophy last year, revealed that time spent with her nieces and nephews over Christmas triggered serious baby fever.
Dianne told The Sun: 'I would like to have children, 100 per cent.
'Joe and I love kids, and that's definitely something that we would absolutely love. I haven't really thought about how many I would like. It will definitely happen.'
The couple, who live in a £3.5million home in Brighton, have been flooded with baby chat recently, but say their hectic schedules are the biggest hurdle.
Dianne is currently preparing to hit the road for a 30-date UK tour with fellow Strictly dancer Vito Coppola, while also promoting a new podcast with 2023 partner Chris McCausland.
The pro dancer admitted juggling motherhood and a performance career would be 'a challenge' but insisted it's something both she and Joe are excited about.
She said: 'My job is quite demanding and I love it so much.
'It is a tough one to balance out and think about. It would take a lot of thought, but eventually one day we'll get there, but there is lots happening at the moment. It will happen when it's supposed to.'
It has been a successful year for Dianne who won a TV BAFTA this month alongside her Strictly partner from last year Chris.
She was paired with the comedian , 47, who lost his sight at the age of 22 due to genetic condition retinitis pigmentosa, on last year's series and now they have a Best TV Moment BAFTA to their names.
The show won Best TV Moment for McCausland's moving 'blackout' waltz to You'll Never Walk Alone - choreographed to highlight his visual impairment and echo a similar routine performed by deaf contestant Rose Ayling-Ellis in 2021.
While the comic was absent, a triumphant Dianne was on hand to personally accept the award and show it off backstage in the winners room.
Strictly earned the accolade after beating pivotal scenes from Bridgerton, Gavin & Stacey, Mr. Bates vs The Post Office, Rivals and The Traitors to the award.
Australian dancer Dianne was accompanied by her long-term boyfriend and former Strictly Come Dancing partner Joe as they greeted photographers on the red carpet earlier that night.

Tiger Lily Hutchence and her husband Ben Archer dote on their newborn baby as they enjoy a family stroll in London
Michael Hutchence 's daughter Tiger Lily Hutchence looked like the proud mother as she took her newborn on a family stroll in London on Monday. The singer, 29, was all smiles as she went on a relaxing walk with her husband Ben Archer and their baby. She looked happy as she pushed her child in a pram while Ben walked alongside her. Tiger Lily was dressed comfortably for the outing in a red T-shirt, brown pants and a pair of sandals. Her long-term partner also revealed his unique sense of style as he stepped out in a yellow T-shirt, jeans and boots. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Tiger Lily confirmed the birth of her first child last month after she was seen out and about with her newborn baby. She looked happy as she soaked up the sun while pushing her child, who was covered with a light blue blanket, in the pram. Tiger's long-term boyfriend revealed the news of her pregnancy in February when he shared an art flyer on Instagram which showed her showing off a large baby bump. 'My love @heavenlytiger is doing a show,' he commented. Tiger then confirmed the exciting news by responding with a hatching chicken emoji. 'Wahooo love you,' she wrote alongside the post. Followers expressed their excitement, with one person commenting: 'The joint exhibition!! The pregnancy!! I can't take it!!' 'Is T having a baby?' another questioned, while a third wrote: 'YES!! THIS IS HUGE.' Tiger Lily, who is the daughter of Hutchence and late British TV presenter Paula Yates, has been quietly dating British model Ben, 27, since June 2023. The couple are believed to have 'tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in East London' in April. According to The Sun, the couple were 'keen to marry' ahead of the birth of their first child. The newlyweds reportedly hired out a restaurant on Columbia Road and invited their closest family and friends. A source said: 'Tiger Lily and Ben had a very chic, very low-key wedding on Saturday. They hired out a restaurant on Columbia Road for about 30 guests. 'Tiger Lily's sisters, Pixie and Fifi, were there, as well as Bob. The guest list was very rock 'n' roll, with Tiger Lily's godfather, Nick Cave, invited too. 'Tiger Lily and Ben are so happy together and this ceremony was just for their closest friends and family. It was a beautiful day and, after the service, they all sat down to have a meal together.' Tiger Lily was just 16 months old when her father Michael killed himself in a Sydney hotel room at the age of 37. Her mother Paula overdosed on heroin at her home in Notting Hill, London, less than three years later. She was 41. The devastating circumstances that left Tiger Lily an orphan led to Paula's ex-husband Bob stepping in. He adopted Tiger Lily, and raised her as his daughter alongside his three daughters from his marriage to Paula: Peaches, who sadly passed away in 2014, Pixie and Fifi Trixibelle.

Celebrity Gladiators line-up revealed - from a viral fitness guru and Olympic boxer to gym-obsessed reality TV heavyweights
A new batch of super fit celebrities are set to take on the Gladiators in a battle of strength and skill. The reboot of Gladiators was a smash hit when it aired last year, and a celebrity spin-off was quickly commissioned, featuring comedians and gym lovers. But this year the casting team have stepped it up and found four stars who can definitely give the Gladiators a run for their money. The Sun reported on Monday that model Vogue Williams will be joined on the show by fitness guru Joe Wicks, former Olympic boxer Nicola Adams, and gym-obsessed I'm A Celeb winner Sam Thompson. Vogue won the first series of Bear Grylls: Mission Survive and regularly shares fitness tips and workout videos with her Instagram followers. Meanwhile Joe dominated British TV screens during Covid thanks to his at-home workout clips, and reality star Sam often shares his gym progress. Former Olympian Nicola could however prove the one to beat, after retiring undefeated in 2019 and becoming the first female boxer to become an Olympic champion after winning gold at London 2012. A source told the publication: 'Last year, producers of the debut celebrity version played it for laughs with three comedians taking part — with hilarious results for viewers. 'But this year they've assembled four celebrities who can give the Gladiators a serious run for their money, and serve up a clash to savour. Filming of the third series of the regular Gladiators is currently underway at Sheffield Arena, and set to air early next year with Bradley Walsh and son Barney returning to host. Meanwhile the upcoming series of Celebrity Gladiators will come out just before the civilian one. The first series of Celebrity Gladiators saw Joel Dommett and Ellie Taylor crowned the winners after a tense finale. The one-hour special saw Joel go head-to-head with comedian Rob Beckett, while Ellie faced a string of challenges with former BBC Breakfast presenter Louise Minchin. After facing the ultimate test of speed and strength up against the power of the Gladiators, the stars faced their fears in the iconic Eliminator. Reality star Sam, most famous for his appearances on Made In Chelsea, often shares his gym progress Joel went into The Eliminator with a half second lead on Rob Beckett. Both managed to overcome their fear of heights and successfully climb up the cargo net but it was Joel who ran to the top of the travelator first, bursting through the paper to become Gladiators Celebrity champion. Speaking to host Barney Walsh after his win Joel said: 'It was so tough, I knew Rob was there the entire time. 'We've been so scared all day of that cargo net we're both absolutely petrified of heights, the fact that we both did that I just feel like we've overcome something, it's amazing. 'I've dreamed of going up that travelator since I was nine years old and hearing the crowd roar and going up that travelator its likely genuinely a dream come true, thank you so much for having me, it's been a pleasure.' Louise had a two-second head start on Ellie in The Eliminator, but struggled to get over the first hurdle, so Ellie was able to take advantage and the lead as she swung through the paper to be crowned champion. On winning Ellie told host Bradley Walsh: 'I can't believe I've just done that, I had such a wonderful time here with Louise, I'm really proud of myself.' The physically challenging game show was resurrected by the BBC in January, 32-years after its original ITV launch and 16-years after Sky One scrapped an earlier revival. Louise previously shared insight into filming and revealed she'd been left injured after getting kicked in the face: 'I don't know who cut my nose but there was blood'. 'When they're fighting you, you can't feel the pain. But being tackled by them is like hitting a brick wall. I just had these extra-ordinarily powerful legs kicking out at me. Honestly, they're units!'. Meanwhile comedian Rob revealed how he did everything possible to leave host Bradley who presents alongside son Barney, 27, in stitches with a string of racy quips. Elsewhere actress Ellie, who appeared on 2022's Strictly, concluded the Gladiators were much more scary than the BBC dancing show's judges. She joked: 'I think the Gladiators, because the Strictly judges can't hurt you. They can just emotionally destroy you. It's different levels of pain.' Ellie, who shares two children with husband Phil Black, also revealed she had a secret girl crush on Gladiator Fury, whose real name is Jodie Ounsley. 'Luckily, she didn't tackle me. I just got a little fireman's carry and I felt like a dainty lady for once. And I got to play bongos on her bum! I love it, it's really fun.'

Mabel marries fiancé Preye Crooks after splashing out on an incredible London venue with 150 guests including celebrity attendees
Mabel has married her fiancé Preye Crooks in a London ceremony over the weekend. The singer, 29, tied the knot with the music executive after spending five figures on hiring the ictoria and Albert Museum in Chelsea to host 150 guests. According to the Sun, guests including Miquita Oliver and her mother Andi partied the night away drinking drinking champagne and margaritas. An insider told the publication: 'It was quite an intimate affair initially — they had a nice dinner with their closest friends and family to kick things off. 'Then more of their loved ones turned up to celebrate with them in style later in the evening. They all had a brilliant time and Mabel and Preye looked so in love.' The venue typically costs around £10,000 to hire for wedding parties. The couple got engaged in November last year. Preye is the son of former Spurs footballer Garth Crooks. After Preye popped the question, she proudly showed off her sparkling diamond ring in a video online. They celebrated with a huge party as the couple were joined by family and friends, with one pal sharing a glimpse of the bash to TikTok. Mabel, who's full name is Mabel Alabama-Pearl McVey, looked sensational in a pink silk gown and couldn't wipe the smile off her face as she showed off her huge diamond ring which was custom-designed at Jewelry Palace - a family owned company in Los Angeles. Meanwhile Preye, who has been dating the singer since 2021, cut a dapper figure as he made a speech to mark the occasion. The couple looked happier than ever as they slow danced surrounded by rose petals and candles while their guests cheered. @feybakare1 Whenever you spoke about her, I knew you really loved her. It was very clear from the start, just how deeply you felt for her. With any and everything you did, you put her first and I learnt a lot from you in that sense and I'm blessed to have seen your relationship blossom and fluorish 😁 To happily ever after for you both 😁💍🖤🤞🏾 ♬ Swimming - Flawed Mangoes In the gushing post their friend Fet Bakare wrote: 'Whenever you spoke about her, I knew you really loved her. It was very clear from the start, just how deeply you felt for her'. 'With any and everything you did, you put her first and I learnt a lot from you in that sense and I'm blessed to have seen your relationship blossom and fluorish, To happily ever after for you both'. Sony music A&R Preye also runs the Strawberries & Creem Festival and is the son of former BBC sports pundit Garth Crooks, 66. Meanwhile Mabel is the daughter of Swedish singer Neneh Cherry, who has released six studio albums; the first of which, Raw Like Sushi, reached number three in the UK Albums chart. She has been nominated for a Grammy Award and has two Brit Awards under her belt - and while her daughter Mabel is certainly catching up to her mother, the young singer hasn't quite reached Neneh's heights yet. Her debut single Finders Keepers, released in 2017, reached number eight on the UK Singles Chart. This was followed up two years later with the release of her album High Expectations at number three in the Albums Chart - which later went platinum. In 2020, just three years after bursting onto the scene, she won a Brit Award for British Female Solo Artist. In 2018, her musician mother Neneh spoke about nurturing her daughter Mabel in the music industry, revealing she is in awe of her. The songstress spoke of the then 21-year-old's success and reflected on motherhood, in an interview with the Evening Standard Magazine admitting she wasn't always 'emotionally accessible'. She said: 'Mabel is unbelievable and so focused and it's hard out there. 'She gets up sometimes and she's doing two or three sessions a day. I'm in awe of her and so I try to support her with basic mum things, like making her a take-out lunch.' Mabel previously insisted she doesn't want her parents' help when it comes to her own music career. 'When I was in my teens, and was like, 'I really want to do music',' she told the publication. I felt quite embarrassed by being my mum and dad's daughter. I thought, 'People will never take me seriously'.'
