Thumbs up: Strictly's Tina O'Brien and dance parter Jared Murillo were spotted at the aftershow of the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Of The Year Awards on Tuesday
The sensuous dances, close physical contact and skimpy outfits have always meant Strictly is a hotbed for romance.
But this year, while everyone has been speculating about the 'will-they, won't-they' relationship between Kara Tointon and Artem Chigvintsev, it appears another may have blossomed under the radar.
Former Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien, 27, has been spotted getting cosy with her dance partner Jared Murillo, 22 - even though they were both voted off the show last week.

Tina was seen nuzzling his neck and burying her face into his shoulder, before Jared - who was thought to be dating US dancer Ashley Galvan - appeared to tenderly caress her hair.
The pair were seen getting close in what they thought was a private moment at the aftershow party at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Of The Year Awards on Tuesday.
The Waterloo Road actress had previously spoken about how Strictly was helping her get over the heartbeak after she split from cameraman Nick Cox, 35, last month.

She explained: 'After my relationship with Nick ended, dancing was therapeutic. It gave me more focus and something to think about.'
She added: 'Even though it's been terrifying it's been the most fun I've had in my life and I've got a Strictly-shaped hole in my heart that hurts at the moment.'
Jared had pledged before the show that there would be no romance between him and Tina because of his religious beliefs - and that he was saved himself from sex until he was spliced.

He said before Strictly started: 'I follow Mormon beliefs – so, while I have a girlfriend and I love being with women, I am still a virgin.
'I can have fun, I just won’t have sex until I’m married.'
The mother of two year old Scarlett - from her relationship with former Corrie co-star Ryan Thomas - had said she was 'really sad' to leave the show after five weeks and vowed to 'keep in touch' with Jared.
It certainly looks like she's fulfilling her promise...
