Lottie Ryan has fueled romance rumours on Dancing with the Stars saying -’everything you think is happening, is happening’.
Romance rumours have been rife on the RTE dance show this season, with judges and fans at home alike speculating about the ‘chemistry’ between certain pairings.
Departed star Missy Keating and her partner Ervinas Merfeldas were the first to be faced with speculation early on, but more recently all eyes have been on rugby star Jordan Conroy and his professional dance partner Salome Chachua and Love Island star Matt MacNabb and Dublin dancer Laura Nolan.
Speaking ahead of this weekend’s quarter finals, former champion Lottie, who is currently hosting the spin-off podcast for the RTE show said she knows all the inside information from spending so much time doing her backstage presenting duties this season.
She teased: “Oh, I know everything that's going on. Everything you're thinking, it’s happening. Listen, everybody's been locked up for two years. And if they're single, and they're having fun, power to them,” she said laughing.
2fm host Lottie won the previous series in 2020 with two-time winning pro dancer Pasquale La Rocca, who is currently topping the leaderboard week on week with his new celebrity partner Nina Carberry.
The Italian dancer has had a triumphant few years professionally, having also won the dance show the year prior on the Belgian edition in 2019, and Lottie reckons he could go on to crack America if he pulls a hat-trick with Nina this season.
Speaking as part of One4All Mother's Day campaign, the new mum to eight month old Wolf, told Irish Daily Mirror: “Jesus wouldn’t that be incredible. I think if that happened, I'd say he could go to Dancing with the Stars in America.
“Because nobody's ever done it before. Yeah. So I think that his life would literally change completely.
“Which imagine what that would be like for the show. And Kai going to Strictly UK.
“And Pasquale going to the states. I mean, we'd be producing some pretty talented choreographers and performers. Absolutely. And I think it's a huge possibility.
“I think Nina has probably been the biggest shock on the show for Pasquale, as well.
“And I don't think anybody was expecting from her what she's done. And but for him, if it was a triple, that's game over. That's life changing for him.”
She added: “He’d be the first pro to ever do it. I mean, the franchise would definitely be paying attention if that happens.
“That's why I think that's why I think the states would be on their radar anyway.
“And the pros on that show are sometimes more famous than the celebrities I think, so, that's huge.”
