Strictly Come Dancing's Hamza Yassin's company falls £55,000 into debt

Strictly Come Dancing's Hamza Yassin suffered a loss of £55,000 to his business firm, it has been revealed.

After winning the BBC dancing show last year, the cameraman's business Hamza Yassin Film And Photography Ltd dipped into the red last year.

Hamza is the sole director and shareholder of the company, as well as his company being the only directorship for the star.

As per documents filed at Companies House, the 32-year-old had net liabilities of £55,606 by 30th April 2022, pre dating his Strictly success.

This marks an ongoing loss for the media star’s company, standing at a loss of almost £17,000 more than the loss he made in 2021.

The Camden, London-based company was launched in 2014 and has always been in a loss, but 2022 marked the highest deficit for the brand so far.

Previously, the company’s deficit was highlighted as £38,819 in 2021 and £27,707 in 2020.

The Mirror has contacted a representative of Hamza Yassin for a comment on the matter.

Hamza is currently branching out from his documentary making by performing for audiences across the country as part of the Strictly Come Dancing tour.

The TV presenter is appearing with partner Jowita Pryzstal, with the pair delighting fans by recreating some of their much-loved dances.

The dynamic duo have been joined on the tour by co-stars Will Mellor and Nancy Xu, Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu, Ellie Simmonds and Nikita Kuzmin and Tyler West and Dianne Buswell.

The live shows launched in Birmingham at the Utilita Arena on January 20, and are being hosted by It Takes Two host Janette Manrara.

News of Hamza’s business debt comes as he told of how he wishes to continue David Attenborough’s legacy in sharing the wonders of nature through film.

Hamza told Hello! magazine: “It's an absolute honour to have my name mentioned in the same sentence as Sir David.

“No-one will ever replace Sir David. He's an absolute legend of this industry. I'd love to show people what the natural world means to me and why we need to look after it.”
