Strictly bosses monitoring Maisie Smith and HRVY to ensure they stick to show’s strict kissing ban

STRICTLY bosses are monitoring flirty contestants Maisie Smith and Hrvy to ensure they stick to the show’s strict no-kissing rules.

It comes as execs have warned the celebs they must uphold stringent anti-Covid measures — and any physical relationship will be deemed a clear breach.

Maisie Smith is also under the watchful eye of bosses to ensure she follows the no-kissing rule

The EastEnders actress, 19, and singer, 21, are both single and have been caught flirting online.

A source said: “Maisie and Hrvy are being monitored by the producers after it’s become clear their connection could easily lead into a Strictly romance.

“They’re both young, single and hot and the thought is that the two of them could bring the other cast into risk if they break the guidelines and get closer.

“They have both been told, as have the rest of the cast, that kissing is off limits. Usually the Strictly cast are very tactile. Not in 2020.

Hrvy is partnered with Strictly pro Janette Manrara

“The cast have secretly named bosses the ‘passion patrol’.”

It comes as Hrvy said this week: “I love Maisie, she’s a great girl and has got great banter. When I saw her in her blue dress last week, she looked incredible. I can’t wait to see her look amazing every week.”

Maisie wowed judges on the Strictly dance floor last night. She and pro-partner Gorka Marquez, 30, took on Gloria Estefan’s Samba. And Olympic boxing champ Nicola Adams, 37, quickstepped in the show’s first same-sex pairing with Katya Jones, 31.
