I was just wondering....

I don't know. Would they like some?

From memory, Karen Hardy was the only female pro to work on the show and have a child. Several have had children since leaving the show (Nicole Cutler, Lilia, another child for Karen)

No none of them have kids, although I wouldn't be surprised if this or maybe next year ends up being Natalie's last SCD and for the sound of pattering feet.

and Erin has a little boy which is why she didn't come back (was pregnant first year of absence). http://www.hellomagazine.com/healtha...troduces-baby/

Knew there was someone I'd missed - thanks

Would expect that Ola will announce a pregnancy soon, or at least in a few months time, as it would also give her the ultimate reason to bow out (gracefully).

I thought she left the show to concentrate on her dance studio and then her first pregnancy came after that (hence all the baby talk on itt), unless I'm confused and she now has two children. I never knew she had a first child (already out of her body) while still a dancing pro on the show. I thought she was childless while still a pro, then the studio commitments caused her to leave strictly and the first baby came while she was doing her stint on Itt. Obvs I could have not realised she already has a first child as I've never taken an interest.

Unlike the male pros, the female ones would prob have to say bye bye to strictly (in terms of being a dancing pro on the main show) if they wanted to get pregnant. They don't have the luxury like Vincent, or Brendan with a wife to do that part of it so he can still carry on doing strictly and his own tour. I don't know if Erin would have been asked back after she left the show to have a baby, prob a good excuse for the producers to bring in new blood, esp as she was not good at Latin and the other new pro girls that came in that specialised in latin were still able to do ballroom.

Karen had her first child in 2005. She's said before that doing her first series of the show later that same year helped her with postnatal depression.

Righto, I never new of this myself (didn't watch strictly much in the early series) but always good to learn and know.

I would think much easier to have a child before a dancing strictly career, rather than during it (as then the strictly career might not last as long because I think strictly producers don't like waiting or adapting to many, esp to known to-be pregnant women).

DWTS US Pro Allison Holker is a mum and is competing 4 months pregnant!

Artem's ex-wife competed pregnant on DWTS Australia as well this year (one of the contestants was also pregnant).

Oh god yes I was about to type that. I laugh that DWTS AU NEVER has a real constant core of Pro dancers

Anton

Doesn't count.
Not a latin dancer

Discounting gender, just Brendan has family so far.

I thought Gleb and his wife had a baby?

Edit: seems they have a girl, toddler rather than a baby

no, none of the current female pros have children however Brendan has a daughter

Karen Hardy has 2
Nicole Cutler has 1
Lilia Kopylova has 1
Hanna Haraala has 1
Izabelle Hanna has 1
Erin Boag has 1

I don't think any other pros of the good ol' days have one

He looks like he could be Antons brother
