Strictly Come Dancing’s Kai Widdrington chats to a mystery blonde after the tour show – while love interest Nadiya Bychkova is also spotted arriving at the cast’s London hotel


Strictly Come Dancing’s Kai Widdrington was spotted chatting to a mystery blonde after Saturday’s tour show in London. 

The dancer and choreographer, 26, has been romantically linked to fellow dancing professional Nadiya Bychkova, 32 – and their ‘romance’ has set tongues wagging in the wake of her split from fiancé Matija Škarabot.

Despite the pair both returning to the cast’s hotel in the capital, they were not pictured together, as Southampton-born Kai engaged in a conversation with a woman blonde in a sequin dress.

MailOnline has contacted Kai’s representatives for comment.  

Smiley Kai swapped his ballroom finery for a beanie and leather jacket, while his love interest Nadiya, 33, looked stunning in all black, her blonde hair pulled back into a tight ponytail. 

The pair were reportedly pictured in a ‘heated row’ at Sheffield’s Mercure Hotel two weeks ago, during the Strictly’s tour stop off in the city.

Nadiya, whose split from her fiancé Matija, 33, came to light last month, allegedly squabbled ‘animatedly’ with her co-star after he refused to carry her designer luggage through the foyer of their accommodation.

Nadiya and Kai’s ‘romance’ has set tongues wagging in the wake of her split and the duo appeared to confirm the union with a steamy kiss.

Following the reported splat, the duo were said to have stayed in separate rooms.

But Kai appeared to be in his element the next day, as he bonded with the Slovenia native’s on-screen partner Dan Walker during a game of golf.  

Despite being seen engaging in a passionate kiss only days before, the couple checked into separate rooms following the tiff, according to The Sun. 

Meanwhile, Dan attended last Wednesday’s show in Sheffield to show his support to Nadiya, after the pair competed in the 2021 series together. 

While Dan isn’t on the tour he has spent time with Nadiya and his Strictly stars while they performed.
