Strictly 2022 stars fuel romance rumours as they look cosy on tour night out

Molly Rainford and Tyler West have fuelled romance rumours after being spotted cosying up whilst enjoying some downtime on the Strictly Come Dancing tour.

It comes after there was speculation about a possible romance between Molly, 22, and Tyler, 26, when they took part in the latest series of the BBC dance show last year.

The two former contestants are currently touring alongside some of their co-stars, with the Strictly arena tour now well underway after having launched almost two weeks ago.

Molly and Tyler have been spotted cosying up in a bar whilst on a night out in Nottingham last week, as the cast and crew enjoyed some downtime from the ongoing tour.

Photos shared by the The Sun show Molly and Tyler looking close on a night out in the city with the tour crew. They were seen stood close together, seemingly in conversation.

One of the photos shows singer and actor Molly affectionately placing her hand on radio host Tyler's arm, with her other hand gently placed on his shoulder.

Molly - who competed on Britain's Got Talent, before landing the lead role on CBBC series Nova Jones - is seen wearing a white crop top and a pair of jeans.

Tyler - who is best known for being among the presenting line-up on radio station Kiss FM - decided to wear a black t-shirt and a pair of grey pants for the evening.

There have previously been romance rumours about Molly and Tyler, with it having been reported that they grew close whilst both taking part in Strictly just a few months ago.

A source told the outlet at the time that they were "flirty". The source said: "Everyone on the show is talking about how flirty the pair are. They're both young and single and have really hit it off and so it feels like romance is on the cards."

The Strictly tour began in Birmingham earlier this month and has since visited Nottingham and Leeds. The cast most recently performed in Manchester over the weekend.

It continues tomorrow (January 31) with performances in Sheffield, before heading to venues in Newcastle, London and Belfast. The tour will conclude in Glasgow next week.

The Mirror approached Molly and Tyler's reps for comment.
