Take time and enjoy the world’ Final Instagram post of tragic Diversity dancer and West End performer Robert Anker who was killed in a car crash in Canada
A former member of the dance group Diversity has been killed in a car crash.
Robert Anker died in the collision in Canada yesterday, where he moved last year to marry his fiancée.
The 27-year old performer from Essex was a founding member of the world-famous dance troupe which won Britain's Got Talent in 2009.
He also appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, ITV shows The X Factor and Take Me Out and in music videos alongside singers Jessie J, Paloma Faith and Peter Andre.
Robert had also starred in the West End show Thriller and recently flown out to Cape Town to be involved in the latest Bring It On film.
In a further tragic twist, in his last Instagram post the talented dancer told followers to 'enjoy the world'.
He wrote: 'Remember to take time to enjoy the world. From experience in travel, business and dance I've loved every minute of it.
'Setting new bars and new goals.'
Social media has been flooded with tributes to the star.
Choreographer Dean Lee tweeted: 'Rob Anker. I have no words to speak after hearing of your passing. This is truly heart breaking. Thanks for the memories. Shine bright.'
His cousin Rochelle Hanson has since set up a Just Giving page in his memory.
On it, she paid tribute to the 'amazing and talented dancer'.
She wrote: 'The family are devastated. He only just got married in September 2016 to a lovely Canadian girl and they were starting their new life out there.
