Married Strictly pros, Neil and Katya Jones, have today announced their split in a joint statement on Instagram.
The pair, who hit the headlines in October last year when Katya snogged her dance partner Seann Walsh, shared their news just weeks after their sixth wedding anniversary, reports the Mirror.
In a joint statement they said: "As our fans and loyal supporters you are really important to us and so we wanted to let you know some news.
"After 11 years, we have made the mutual decision to separate.
"We will always love each other, just in a different way as friends. This will never change what a great team we make and we are really proud of everything we have achieved together.
"Our shared love of dance means we will keep working and dancing together as well as exploring individual projects. No matter what we do we will always support and respect each other.
"We wish one another every happiness and we will remain the best of friends. We are really looking forward to getting back to the ballroom and can't wait to keep on dancing.
"Lots of love from us both."
A spokeswoman for Neil and Katya made clear the split was a recent decision, and not based on the scandal of last year's Strictly.
Strictly Come Dancing launch show will be filmed on Monday August 26, and air shortly after on BBC One.
