Tom Dean and Nadiya Bychkova, two former Strictly Come Dancing partners, have reportedly been supporting each other through their recent break-ups. Despite being eliminated from the competition early on, the pair have remained close, according to sources.
Tom, a 24-year-old Olympian, is said to have split from his girlfriend Charlotte Phillips just two weeks into his Strictly experience. Meanwhile, Nadiya, 35, ended her two-year relationship with fellow pro dancer Kai Widdrington.
The insider revealed that Tom has been a source of comfort for Nadiya and that they have been spending time together, bonding over their shared love for golf. They both expressed disappointment over their early exit from the competition but have been able to get to know each other outside of the dance floor.
The former partners have reportedly maintained a strong friendship, with Nadiya describing Tom as a "complete gentleman". She also added that he has been her rock since her split from Kai.
However, Nadiya recently stated that they are no longer as close as they once were, clarifying that they are only colleagues and not friends. She did, however, promise that their performances together will be amazing because they are both professionals.
Meanwhile, sources have revealed that Tom and his ex-girlfriend Lottie ended their relationship amicably after a year of dating. They simply reached a natural end and have remained good friends.
Nadiya, who was devastated by their early exit from Strictly, previously praised Tom as a "wonderful gentleman" and expressed her disappointment at not being able to teach him more. She was confident that he could have become a brilliant dancer if given more time.
The former partners have both moved on from their break-ups and are focused on their careers. Nadiya has been busy with her work on Strictly while Tom has been training for his next competition. They both wish the remaining couples on the show the best of luck and are excited to see how the series progresses.
