The Strictly Come Dancing professional, 36, is expecting her first child, a baby boy, with internet personality Joe Sugg, 34.
Dianne jetted home to Australia to be with her family for the festive period.
Highlights included her nephew sweetly planting kisses on her bump, watching the sunset with Joe and going around Kings Park on a tour bus to explore Perth city.
Fans wrote in the comments: ‘Beautiful photos what a wonderful holiday you are having back with your family. Australia looks good in you all’;
‘You look so happy and content’ and ‘Looks so lovely Dianne am so glad you are having the best time’.
It comes after the couple held a baby shower.
Both Dianne and Joe spent this Christmas Down Under with her parents and she revealed her family organised her shower in a sweet post.
Taking to Instagram, Dianne looked radiant and blooming as she showed off her bump in a gorgeous blue maxi dress that featured a floral design.
Wearing a sash that said ‘mum to be’, Dianne stood beside her proud parents Rina and Mark as the house was beautifully decorated behind them.
The pair couldn’t hide their excitement as they stood in front of a table full of sweat treats for the party.
She captioned the wholesome pictures: ‘Our Australian baby shower with the family. Thank you to my gals and Mia for putting so much effort in to make it so fun and special’ (sic).
Dianne was the first professional in the show’s history to compete while pregnant, before her partner Stefan Dennis, was forced to pull out due to injury.
Joe and Dianne struck up a romance when they were paired together during the sixteenth series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2018.
For their pregnancy reveal video in September, poignantly set to Elton John’s Tiny Dancer, the couple set up an easel and pretended to paint a picture together, with playful dramatics.
They then picked up the canvas to display it to the camera, revealing a drawing of two stick men – one with Dianne’s signature flaming red hair – holding hands with a baby.
