Strictly's Jowita Przystal 'dating' BBC co-star as Pete Wicks romance rumours shut down
Romance has reportedly taken centre stage behind the curtains of Strictly Come Dancing, with whispers of a relationship blossoming between two of the show's professional dancers.
Throughout the 2024 season, there were persistent rumours about a potential spark between Jowita Przystal, 30, and Pete Wicks, 36, after they were partnered together.
Suggestions of a love triangle also surfaced as Pete had been romantically linked to I'm A Celebrity star Maura Higgins.
Yet, it seems the love story was actually unfolding elsewhere, as it has emerged that the real romance was between professional dancers Jowita and Vito Coppola.
An insider has hinted that more relationships may have formed throughout the series, though they're yet to come to light.
