Strictly star Karen Clifton cuddles up to a new mystery man on a night out in London before posting video with ex Kevin
STRICTLY star Karen Clifton cosied up to a new mystery man on an evening out in London yesterday evening.
And her happy appearance came a day before she shared an Instagram video of herself dancing with her estranged husband Kevin in a plug for their forthcoming tour.
The professional dancer held hands with the man who wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
The pair looked extremely happy together with Karen smiling throughout their stroll in Soho.
Despite their cosy appearance, the mystery chap has never appeared on Karen's Instagram or social media.
He's the second man Karen's been seen out with in a matter of days - she was spotted enjoying a stroll with opera singer David Webb at the weekend.
A source close to David told The Sun Online that the pair are "just friends", but the relationship has given her something to smile about after a difficult few months both personally and professionally.
Last month, The Sun's Bizarre column exclusively reported that Karen and Kevin were divorcing after three years of marriage.
Kevin instigated the split after she had a fling with accountant Stuart Wood, 27.
He has grown close to his Strictly dance partner Louise Redknapp, 43, who divorced footie pundit husband Jamie last month.
A source said:“Karen is extremely upset about the whole situation and is really struggling to accept that everything is over.
"She has been pleading with Kevin to give things another go but he’s made it clear that he’s not interested and doesn’t want them to patch things up.
The Sun on Sunday previously revealed Karen had immediately ended her affair with 27-year-old Stuart, after news of their fling broke in December.
