Georgia May Foote and Giovanni Pernice have split up less than a year after confirming their Strictly Come Dancing romance.
The pair - who met when they were partnered on the dancing show in 2015 - have called time on their romance, Georgia announced on Twitter on Saturday.
The news comes after the actress confirmed that she would feel jealous when Giovanni was partnered up again this year, though the duo insist that there is no third party involved in their separation.
She wrote: 'It is with great sadness we have decided to split up. There is nobody else involved.
'Although it was not an easy decision to make, sometimes you realise that it is better to be friends and this is one of those times.
'We both have very busy work schedules for the rest of the year so we are both going to focus on our upcoming work projects and we wish each other well for the future.'
Georgia also wrote: 'Thank you for all your support for us during and after the series. I love you all very much. @pernicegiovann1.'
Giovanni retweeted the message on his own account.
In March of this year former Coronation Street actress Georgia praised Giovanni for helping her through some tough times.
She said: 'Gio is my best friend and he helped me through a lot.
'He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I'm in a very good place now. I've got good people around me.
'It's something that just happened, I didn't get a chance to look at him that way while I was on the show. It was a friendship that blossomed.'
