WITH the latest series of Strictly Come Dancing in full swing, here’s everything you need to know about Julian Caillon’s fiancee.

The Apprentice star Thomas Skinner suffered an early knock out while late-addition Amber Davies took the headlines after replacing Dani Dyer.
Finishing in 8th place after dancing to The Way You Look Tonight from Swing Time, Balvinder Sopal and Julian Caillon struggled in the movie round.
The EastEnders actress is a long way from the drama of Albert Square and will be hoping that the drama doesn’t follow her.
But, who is the man tasked with ensuring this happens and what does he do away from the dancefloor?
Who is Strictly dancer Julian Caillon?
Julian Caillon is an Australian dancer and choreographer, joining Strictly Come Dancing this year as a new addition to the line up of professionals.
He is partnered up with EastEnders actress Balvinder Sopal.
This is not his first rodeo, having been a professional dancer on 3 seasons of Dancing with the Stars from 2020 to 2022.
In 2014 he appeared as a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance Australia and later went to on to tour the hit live show Burn the Floor.

He has described the experience of joining the show as “living out a dream”.
Similar to fellow Strictly newbie Alexis Warr, Julian has also performed at the iconic Blackpool Tower

When he’s not dancing, Julian works as a personal trainer and exercise physiologist.
The star recently turned 30 saying on Instagram: “Another lap around the sun completed.
“Thank you so much to everyone who wished me happy birthday, I definitely felt the love.”
Who is Julian Caillon’s fiancée Sofia Ochoa?
Julian Caillon and Sofia Ochoa have been together for 3 years.
In December 2024, Caillon proposed to his long-term girlfriend in a romantic setting on the beach.

Sofia has joined Julian in the UK to support him as he takes on his Strictly journey.
