Strictly Come Dancing star Vito Coppola has sparked romance rumours with his co-star Jowita Przystal.
The professional dancers, aged 31 and 29, are said to have recently said to have become close whole touring the country for a live tour.
Strictly: The Professionals sees 12 of the BBC show’s dancers perform alongside singers and a live band, kicking off in Oxford earlier this month.
Other stars taking part are Dianne Buswell, Karen Hauer, Neil Jokes, Nikita Kuzmin and Gorka Marquez.
However, as they’ve been preparing for the show, Vito and Jowita have ‘quietly coupled up after growing close’.
Sources say they have caused a ‘stir behind the scenes after being spotted entering and leaving each other’s rooms’, as reported by The Mirror.
The couple were also pictured heading out of rehearsals together last month.
‘Jowita and Vito have been the main source of gossip during tour rehearsals, and now on the tour itself. They’re seeing each other but keeping it very quiet,’ a source told the publication.
‘They don’t want the kind of attention Jowita had with Giovanni, especially as it’s still early days.
‘They’ve been going off together quite a lot while not rehearsing, and have been in and out of each other’s dressing rooms,’ they added.
Before joining Strictly, Jowita, was in a long-term relationship with Michael Danilczuk, who she won BBC One’s The Greatest Dancer with in 2020.
In December 2022, she began dating fellow Strictly pro Giovanni Pernice, but they split after three months.
Not long after she was linked to Strictly assistant choreographer Arduino Bertoncello.
Last year Vito, who joined Strictly in 2022, was reported to be dating Coronation Street star Ellie Leach after they were paired up on the dancing series.
They then went on to win the competition.
However, after the show ended it was then reported that she had actually instead be seeing EastEnders actor Bobby Brazier, who was also appearing on Strictly too.
Last season Jowita was paired with Paralympian Jody Cundy, but was eliminated in the third round.
Metro.co.uk has contacted representatives for Vito Coppola and Jowita Prystal for comment.
Strictly Come Dancing is streaming on BBC iPlayer.
