Kai Widdrington chats with mystery blonde after Strictly show as Nadiya Bychkova arrives

Strictly Come Dancing star Kai Widdrington looked cosy with a mystery woman on Saturday night.

The professional dancer, 26, was snapped enjoying a chat with an unknown blonde lady after the Strictly tour show in London.

Kai seemed to be engrossed in conversation with the sequin dress-wearing mystery woman back at the hotel, around ten minutes before rumoured love interest Nadiya Bychkova arrived.

It's been speculated the two Strictly Come Dancing stars have been enjoyed a secret romance, in the wake of the blonde dancer splitting from fiancé Matija Škarabot.

As the pair both arrived back separately at the Strictly team's hotel on Saturday night, Kai cut a casual figure in a black beanie and leather jacket after the latest show.

Nadiya, 33, rocked a similar laidback look - pulling her blonde locks back into a ponytail and wearing an all-black ensemble.

The latest Strictly sighting comes shortly after the rumoured couple allegedly had a tiff during the Sheffield leg of the tour.

Nadiya apparently bickered 'animatedly' with her possible new beau, after he allegedly refused to carry her luggage through the foyer of their accommodation.

It was then reported that after the bust-up, the pair checked into separate rooms.

Last month, Nadiya broke her silence on the speculation surrounding her love life, after snaps of her appearing to kiss Kai became public.

Taking to her Instagram account, the mum-of-one seemingly denied rumours of romance between herself and Kai - telling her followers not to "believe everything" they read.

Sharing a snap of herself on stage in Manchester, Nadiya penned: "Don’t believe everything that is reported in the papers, or what you see.

"I love to dance and that’s what I’m here to do. The warmth and kindness I feel from the audience every night makes it worth it."

The Ukrainian-Slovenian ballroom dancer added: "If you’re coming to the tour, I look forward to seeing you there."

BBC Breakfast presenter Dan Walker - who was Nadiya dance partner during last year's series - was one of many to comment on the star's post, writing: "Have a brilliant show tonight partner."

Although Nadiya has seemingly shot down rumours of a romance with Kai, onlookers have claimed the two dancers looked very cosy when they were snapped sharing 'a kiss' on last month.

"Nadiya and Kai met away from the other dancers and celebrities, who were a mile up the road in the Travelodge," a source told The Sun.

"She had bought Kai a coffee from Starbucks next door and they talked and cuddled before having a kiss.

They added: "They didn’t seem to care who could see them. It’s clear they’re massively loved up. They didn’t want anyone gossiping. There’s already been so much speculation."

The Mirror has approached representatives for both stars previously.
