It seems like the stars of this year's series of Strictly Come Dancing have been hitting it off, as a new report suggests Ashley Roberts has gone on a string of not so secret dates with Giovanni Pernice.

Former Pussycat Doll Ashley is actually partnered up with Pasha Kovlev, but it sounds like sparks have been flying behind-the-scenes between her and another of the professionals dancers, with an insider claiming they've kissed.

While they have reportedly been keeping things on the down-low, the rest of the cast have apparently spotted their 'chemistry'.

"The spark between Ashley and Giovanni has become quite widely noticed among the crew - they just seem to really hit it off," the insider told The Sun.

"He is training up north at the moment while she is based down here so they only get to see each other towards the end of the week. But they've been making the most of it."

Giovanni, who is partnered up with Steps' Faye Tozer, and Ashley have apparently been spending lots of time together outside of the show in London where possible.

The source continued: "After the show each week they've been heading out for drinks together in London and just hanging out and looking very cosy.

"It's very early days but it looks like things are going well - and of course they're both single so it's all totally innocent fun."

If something is going on between these two Strictly Come Dancing stars, it wouldn't be the first romance Giovanni's found himself in as a result of the show.

The dancing professional famously dated Coronation Street actress Georgia May Foote for a year after they were partnered up together in 2015.

More recently, Giovanni was linked to TOWIE star, Jess Wright, although things quickly came to an end between the pair.

And according to reports, Ashley once dated head judge Shirley Ballas' pro-dancer son.
