STRICTLY star Nadiya Bychkova says she has been moved to tears by her daughter's fancy footwork.

Mila, eight, wants to follow her mum's lead and become a dancer and has been showing off her moves alongside the 35-year-old BBC star.

But unlike Nadiya, who has spent six years as a pro on Strictly, Mila wants to be a TikTok performer instead.

The pair teamed up as the Ukrainian star was announced as an ambassador for Bright Young Dreams, the children's mental health campaign founded by former Olympic champion Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill.

Nadiya told Mila: “When I have a tough day at work, I come home, look at you and you always make me smile.
