A couple from Strictly is emotional as they confront the possibility of losing their home due to significant debt.
Kristina Rihanoff and Ben Cohen, who are known for their appearance on the popular BBC show Strictly Come Dancing, are currently facing some financial struggles. The couple, who have been together since 2013 and have a daughter, are fighting to keep their home and relationship intact amidst their money woes.

Last week, Kristina, who is 46 years old and a professional dancer, appeared in court for driving her £30,000 Audi Q3 without insurance in April. Her partner, Ben, who is a 45-year-old Rugby World Cup winner, accompanied her as a witness in court. During his testimony, he revealed the emotional toll the situation has taken on them, stating that every day he wakes up and fights not to lose everything - their cars, their house, and their relationship.

Despite their financial struggles, Ben shared that they are still living together and trying to sort things out financially. They even have a business together, which unfortunately was opened just before the pandemic hit. This has resulted in them facing the worst of its consequences, adding to their current problems. Ben admitted to having overdrawn credit cards and a business in debt due to Covid.

During the court hearing, Kristina was seen crying and had to leave at one point due to feeling ill. When she returned, she was wrapped in a blanket and dabbing her eyes with a tissue. It was revealed that she needs to drive around the UK for ballroom competitions, which provide her with a monthly income of £2,000. She also has to take her children to school, making her need for a car even more crucial.

The couple got engaged in 2022, and although Ben is responsible for insuring their cars, her vehicle was uninsured after he overlooked a message from their insurance company. Kristina and Ben were paired together on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013, and she left the show two years later to become a qualified yoga instructor. She recently shared on Instagram about successfully training 13 new yoga teachers.
