The PDA between two former Strictly Come Dancing stars was definitely hard to miss! It was clear that they were head over heels for each other as they were caught in a very passionate smooch while being photographed by the paparazzi.
The star-studded event took place on Saturday, May 4, at the famous Palladium in London. The occasion was the launch of Johannes Radebe's new theatre show, House of Jojo. Among the guests were Rachel Riley and Pasha Kovalev, who had been paired together on the BBC series 11 years ago. Unfortunately, they were eliminated as the fifth couple. However, their partnership didn't end there as they eventually fell in love and got married in 2019. The couple now has two beautiful daughters.
After being together for more than a decade, Rachel, 38, and Pasha, 44, couldn't hide their love for each other as they left the Palladium that night. In one photo, they were caught in a steamy embrace with their tongues intertwined, while another photo showed Rachel tenderly holding her husband's face in her hands.
Pasha proved to be the perfect gentleman as he helped his wife change into more comfortable shoes after a long night in high heels. Rachel looked stunning in her spring-inspired outfit, wearing a red, white, and pink dress with a cream jacket and a stylish updo. Pasha, on the other hand, went for a more edgy look with his black jeans, black jacket, and a white slogan T-shirt.
In an interview in 2023, Rachel opened up about their relationship and how they make it work despite their busy schedules. She shared that at times they can feel like "ships passing in the night," but they always make time for each other. "When you first get together and your partner is away for three months, it's a big deal. But when you've been together for almost a decade and you can see a future together for many more decades, it changes your perspective," she explained.
It's worth noting that Rachel was previously married to Jamie Gilbert, and they divorced in 2013, the same year she competed on Strictly Come Dancing. In an interview with GQ, Rachel clarified that the end of her marriage was not due to the infamous "Strictly curse." She emphasized that she and her ex-husband are still good friends and that their marriage just wasn't right.
Fans of Strictly Come Dancing can expect the show to return to BBC One and BBC iPlayer later this year.
