Strictly’s Nadiya and Kai put on loved-up display as they make their red carpet debut

Strictly professionals Nadiya Bychkova and Kai Widdrington looked every bit the loved-up couple at the House Of The Dragon premiere.

The dancing duo held hands as they stepped out to make their red carpet debut in Leicester Square this evening.

Nadiya, 32, and Kai, 26, gazed into each other's eyes and smiled for the cameras as they joined the list of star-studded arrivals at the Sky Atlantic event.

Kai looking proudly at his girlfriend Nadiya, who wowed in a floor-length pink strapless dress complete which was embellished with silver gems.

The professional dancer was also dressed to impress in a smart all-black suit, complete with a button-down black shirt and a shiny pair of shoes.

Nadiya complemented her glitzy gown, which came complete with a thigh-high slit, with a matching pink clutch bag.

The pair beamed for pictures before heading into the cinema to watch the highly-anticipated prequel to Game of Thrones.

The couple's romance emerged earlier in April, with Nadiya revealing they had secretly been dating for a couple of months, following her split from fiancé, Matija Škarabot, with whom she shares a five-year-old daughter, Mila.

House Of The Dragon stars Milly Alcock and Doctor Who star Matt Smith who lead the arrivals on the red carpet earlier that night.

Milly, who plays princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, looked glamourous as she stepped out in front of the cameras at the Sky Group Premiere.

She wore a beautiful black gown, while Matt opted for a swanky suit with an all-black buttoned suit coat to match his black-tie attire.

House of the Dragon will premiere on HBO Max in the US on Sunday, August 21 and will be available in the UK on Sky Atlantic and NOW on Monday, August 22.

Based on George R.R. Martin’s “ Fire & Blood,” the series, which is set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, tells the story of House Targaryen.

Matt, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Sonoya Mizuno, Fabien Frankel and Rhys Ifans will all star in the new show.

Speaking of his role, Doctor Who star Matt, who plays Daemon, told Sky News: “I suppose that Thrones left a huge cultural footprint.

Matt has spoken out about playing Daemon (HBO/TNI PRESS LTD.)

“We're never going to be able to lay the same one, but we're trying to do something original and something new and something that feels like it speaks our own.”

It also stars David Horovitch, Wil Johnson, John Macmillan, Graham McTavish, Ewan Mitchell, Theo Nate, Matthew Needham, Bill Paterson, Phia Saban, Gavin Spokes, and Savannah Steyn.

Martin and Ryan Condal serve as co-creators on the series.

House Of The Dragon premieres on August 22 on Sky Atlantic and NOW.
