Simon Webbe has denied that his relationship with his Strictly Come Dancing partner Kristina Rihanoff is anything other than professional.

The Blue singer, whose rumba caused controversy on the show last Saturday, told the Metro that there is nothing romantic going on and that their chemistry on the dance floor isn’t real.

He explained: “All I can say is that we talk, dance and we high five and go our separate ways until the next day.”

Simon and Kristina’s rumba caused controversy at the weekend.

As for the routine that landed him in the dance off and received criticism from viewers for being too saucy, he said: “It’s the rumba. It’s one of the most sexual dances that there is.

“I was just concentrating on the moves. Sorry if it offended anyone. For me, I thought the choreography was amazing.”
