Well, well, well…

Strictly Come Dancing has earned itself a reputation over the years for sparking romances and it looks like another pair have come together off the back of the show.

Gemma Atkinson and professional dancer Gorka Marquez have been spotted kissing, almost a month on from the series finale.

Paparazzi photos obtained by the Daily Mail show the pair kissing outside a hotel after dance rehearsals for the Strictly live tour.

The pair set tongues wagging from early in the series and fuelled rumours that they were an item.

Gorka has also popped up on Gemma’s Instagram, most recently in a photo from a dinner date they enjoyed during the week.

“Gorka and Gemma are together,” a show source told the Sun during the competition. “It’s the talk of the makeup room.”

Their relationship didn’t go down well with Gorka’s partner Alexandra Burke, the source continued.

She was reportedly worried that Gemma and Gorka’s romance would scupper her chances on the show.

“Alexandra is furious about how it might impact her chances of winning.

“She’s very ambitious and is nervous about it all.”

Alexandra has denied that there was any drama, though.

“No truth to any of it. The shame of it is, we all get along like a little family,” she said.
