Pals say Kelvin, 36, begged for forgiveness when Eliza got angry after seeing pictures of him drinking in the early hours with his Strictly pro partner and unfollowed them on social media.

It comes after months of travelling and performing as a result of his success on the BBC1 show.

Oti and Kelvin were pictured heading into London’s Soho Sanctum hotel at 3.30am on Friday, where they had drinks with other Strictly pros and celebs.

They both left alone but were pictured again the following night having a late nightcap.

They were also pictured together in an East London nightclub back in January.

A source said: “Kelvin and Eliza’s relationship has really been hit by his Strictly success.

“On Monday morning she told him enough was enough and deleted him from social media because she didn’t want to look at pictures of him anymore. He’s desperately trying to salvage what they have.

“They’ve barely seen each other since he won Strictly in December and seeing him out late with Oti hasn’t helped.

“Seeing her husband out late drinking with other women while she’s at home with their two young children has pushed her to the limit.

“Eliza told Kelvin he was risking their marriage and said she felt devastated by his antics.”

Oti, 29, who wed dancer Marius Lepure in 2016, is said to be horrified their friendship has caused problems.

The source added: “Eliza and the children mean everything to Kelvin. He has told Eliza she has nothing to worry about.

“Their family think they’ll come through but it’s not going to be easy. Oti feels mortified.”
