Katya and Nigel's Intimate Rehearsal
Strictly Come Dancing's Katya Jones and Nigel Harman were seen getting very close as they rehearsed the steamy rumba this week. The ballroom pro, Katya Jones, 34, and EastEnders star, Nigel Harman, 50, looked rather intimate while practicing the sensual routine.
A Near Kiss
The pair appeared on the verge of kissing as they engaged in the passionate dance ahead of Saturday night's showdown. In one snap, Katya and Nigel can be seen embracing each other inside a West London studio. The chemistry between them was palpable.
Nigel's Lift
In another moment, Nigel lifted his dance partner up into the air, with Katya gazing down at him. The routine was filled with passion and intensity.
Off the Market
It seems that both Katya and Nigel are off the market. Nigel is married to actress Lucy Liemann, with whom he shares an 11-year-old daughter. Katya, on the other hand, has reportedly been dating property mogul William Abbotts, who is eight years her junior.
A Disappointing Performance
Last week, Nigel was visibly crestfallen after judges panned his quickstep performance. Their routine to Duke Ellington's "It Don't Mean A Thing" left them second from the bottom of the leaderboard. The judges criticized Nigel's footwork, leading him to hang his head in disappointment.
A Swift Exit
In footage that has gone viral on social media, Nigel appeared to storm off the dance floor seconds after the BBC cameras stopped shooting. Katya briefly stood still before hurrying after him. It's clear that their performance didn't go as planned.
Overall, Katya Jones and Nigel Harman's rehearsals for the steamy rumba have generated quite a buzz. Their chemistry and intense routine are sure to captivate audiences during Saturday night's showdown on Strictly Come Dancing.
