While Katya remained coy about her mystery lover, she revealed: ‘We were driving and stopped and then. . . hiding behind the car. It’s uncomfortable in the car, I tried but we went outside.’

She said: ‘We have a good relationship. It’s really nice. We’ve known each other 13 years so we’ve gone through everything together.’ 

Earlier this year, Katya spoke out about the demise of her seven-year marriage to Neil.

In an interview with Waggel, the Strictly star reflected on how she found her 30th birthday ‘challenging’ because her marriage to Neil was going ‘downhill’.

Talking about the dark period, she said: ‘In 2019 I turned 30, it was a challenging time. I didn’t like where I was, it felt like I was in limbo actually.

‘My relationship was going downhill. I didn’t feel happy in my own company until May 2020, when I spent my birthday in lockdown.’

Katya also revealed she has used the time since her split from Neil to ‘better myself’ and hasn’t dated since they broke-up.

She said: ‘I’ve come out of a marriage, not even a long-term relationship, but a marriage. Neil and I were together for 12-years, married for seven.’

At the time, the professional dancer said she hasn’t even thought about dating because ‘I’ve just been with this person for such a long time’.

Katya added she is ‘happy on my own’ but does have days where she wants to ‘sit down and binge Netflix with someone else’.

The Strictly star also ruled out the prospect of meeting someone on a dating app because she is an ‘old romantic’.

While Katya has remained single since the breakdown of her marriage, Neil had a turbulent brief romance with Columbian dancer Luisa Eusse.

The couple split in January after their relationship was marred by claims Luisa had cheated on Neil and was also just using him for a visa into the country.

Katya admitted she got ‘jealous’ when their dog Crumble, whom they share custody with, spent time with Luisa, but says she is sure if the situation arises again when one of them is in a relationship, it will be ‘absolutely fine’.
