Dancers Nadiya and Kai have been romantically linked

It comes amid ongoing speculation regarding a possible romance between Nadiya and Kai Waddrington. The couple have been photographed looking very cosy together – but are yet to comment on the nature of their relationship.

Just last month, it was announced that Nadiya and her fiancé, Matija Škarabot, had decided to end their romance.

Nadiya recently split from her fiance

The former couple, who share five-year-old daughter Mila together, are thought to have struggled with their commitments; Nadiya is very much focused on Strictly and is largely based in London while footballer Matija remains in Slovenia.

Kai, meanwhile, previously dated fellow dancer Giulia Dotta for five years before they split. Guila's agent confirmed to the Mirror last July that the pair had called time on their relationship, but it's believed that they split several months earlier during lockdown.
