Hey everyone, so I just read this interview from Hamza and Jowita this morning and my heart is just singing!! )
Apologies beforehand for the Mirror link, I've copy-pasted some extracts of the interview if you don't want anything to do with the Mirror:
''''
Jowita says his lack of confidence has been the biggest obstacle in training.
But, even so, she says: “We don’t play it safe. I think he’s capable of doing anything. He goes for it and he doesn’t give up.”
And for Jowita, 28, she is grateful to have landed such a gifted partner.
She says: “The amount of messages we are getting after every Saturday night is amazing, and we try to reply to all of them.
“It’s so nice because he came from a world where there is no dancing. He’s a cameraman. There’s no humans. He never danced in his life.”
Hamza is finally letting himself think about winning, and, unsurprisingly, wants to do it for Jowita.
He says: “Winning would come down to sharing this stage with this absolutely amazing woman and knowing what she’s been through in her life and what I’ve done in my lifetime. It would just be a dream come true.
“I can’t give her anything in life that she can’t get herself. The only thing I can do is do my best on that dance floor.
“And hopefully we lift that beautiful trophy together.”
....
Whatever happens tomorrow, Jowita and Hamza will definitely go on the Strictly stage tour in the New Year.
He also wants to make documentaries in Jowita’s native Poland.
Hamza, who lives in the Highlands, tells her: “I’m going to take you to Scotland first.“ He adds: “She wants to go on safari to Africa, and I said yes.”
After Christmas, he will return to his day job. He says: “I want to show my love of the natural world. If this platform’s given me a boost to do it, I say thank you Strictly and the BBC.”
But he says: “I can guarantee you I will keep dancing... just not for nine hours a day.”
