GETTING TOUR KNOW YOU

Strictly Come Dancing’s Gemma Atkinson fuels Gorka Marquez romance rumours as they’re spotted leaving tour rehearsals together

STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez aren’t even trying to keep their secret relationship hidden – and left tour rehearsals together last night.

The couple – who’ve been linked since the beginning of last year’s Strictly – cuddled up outside the studios and walked off together.

It’s yet another giveaway the pair are dating – just days ago, the former Emmerdale star casually put her arm around pro dancer Gorka for a team photo.

They’ve also been spotted kissing under the cover of darkness and have posted about a dinner date where they ate way too much food – something that left Gemma ‘fuming’.

The not-so-secret relationship has been going on since they met last year on Strictly Come Dancing.

Gemma was partnered with Aljaz Skorjanec and Gorka was dancing with Alexandra Burke – who was not happy about the hook up.

At the time a Strictly insider revealed to The Sun: “Gorka and Gemma are together. It’s the talk of the make-up room.

“Not surprisingly, Alexandra is furious about how it might impact her chances of winning. She’s very ambitious and is nervous about it all.”

“There is definitely something developing — everyone can see there’s an obvious attraction.

“They couldn’t keep away from each other at group rehearsals. Gorka even invited Gemma to his birthday meal and they sat together the whole night.”

In recent weeks, Gemma’s also sparked rumours she’s close to former footballer Ryan Giggs after they were spotted hugging and having cosy lunches.

But Ryan appeared live on Gemma’s Key 103 radio show to deny they were anything more than friends, cheekily telling Gemma’s co-hosts, “As if!”
