One fan was even watching them on Saturday night’s live show – noticing that the pair did their very best to stand as far apart from each other as they could.

This latest controversy surrounding the couple comes in stark comparison to another Strictly Come Dancing couple who are married.

Janette and Aljaz Škorjanec danced a sensational routine together during Craig David and Bastille’s appearance on the show on Sunday night, leaving the audience on their feet, and cheering by the end.
