Stacey Dooley appears to have confirmed her romance with Kevin Clifton by publicly reaching out to her former Strictly mentor.
32-year-old Stacey is Stacey Dooley grins as she breaks cover after Kevin Clifton fling claims filming a new documentary series, but that didn't stop her reaching out to Kevin, 36, back at home.
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the presenter throw her support behind Kevin on the first night of his new dance tour.
As Kevin took to Instagram to share snaps of his Burn The Floor debut, an observant Stacey clicked the red love heart and 'favourited' multiple posts.
It's the first time the Strictly champs have acknowledged each other in public, after Stacey's ex boyfriend Sam Tucknott accused them of a fling.
After the allegations of a romance came to light last week , Stacey hit out: "Anyone with any adult life experience knows there are 2 sides to every story. I haven’t got the time or energy to correct some of the utter nonsense I’ve read on here.
"Re Sam, I loved him v much and only wish him happiness and success going forward."

She spoke out after her 'devastated' ex Sam gave a tell-all interview accusing her of moving on with Kevin following the demise of their five-year-relationship.
Personal trainer Sam alleged that on the opening night of Kevin's last theatre tour, Stacey sent him a good luck cupcake - and he found the receipt at home.
And on April 1, Sam said he discovered a text sent to Stacey by Kevin which read, "I love you."

Kevin, who has gone through three divorces after splitting from fellow pro Karen Clifton in 2017, has yet to confirm or deny the claims.
However Sam branded him a 'rat' and a "slippery slimy snake."
He also claimed Kevin wasn't "man enough" to meet him face to face for closure.
