Strictly Come Dancing star Hamza Yassin has revealed why he’s single.
Over the past several weeks, the presenter, 32, has been impressing fans and judges with his dancing. He’s currently partnered with professional dancer Jowita Przystal, 28, on this year’s series of Strictly Come Dancing.
Speaking to The Guardian recently, Hamza opened up about the struggles he has with his love life.
Is Hamza Yassin from Strictly single?
He told the publication: “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 is a wildlife cameraman and has presented shows such as Scotland: My Life in the Wild and Scotland: Escape to the Wilderness.
Asked if he was on a dating app, the star revealed he wasn’t and would have to “set the net at 150 miles” if he was to join one.
He added: “I do feel isolated on probably one day a year when I’m just having a down day.”
Hamza and Jowita’s friendship
Despite being single, Hamza certainly has strong friendships around him, including with his dance partner Jowita.
The pair appear to be getting along very well and have taken to social media to gush about one another.
Sharing a snap of the two back in October, Hamza wrote: “My Queen!!! What can I say, thank you for a great week, and thank you for caring for me throughout it all!
“And thank you to all who have voted for us to stay in! Both @jowitaprzystal and I appreciate it very much.
“Behind every great King, is a greater Queen!” @bbcstrictly #happiestman #strictly #hamzita #tango #Halloween.”
