We have recently heard that DS3's fiancee has been chosen to dance the lead role of Odette/Odile in Swan Lake in October. I am so thrilled for her as she is very talented and works extremely hard. She also has a lovely personality and I love her to bits. She is only a soloist so this is an important step in her career.
Just a note because a previous post suggested there might still be racism in ballet, she is mixed race.
