Strictly's Seann Walsh and Katya Jones pictured looking VERY close on lunch date

Strictly's Seann Walsh and Katya Jones were pictured looking very close on a lunch date, just hours before they were caught drunkenly kissing one another. 

The pair leaned towards one another as they sat outside a London café during a break from rehearsals as Seann threw his head back in laughter.

At one point, he stroked her hair with his hand, showing how comfortable they are around one another, as she remained seated on a chair.  

Later that day, they headed to a London bar and passionately kissed, despite Seann having a girlfriend of five years and Katya, 29, being married.

Moreover, the kiss took place on 32-year-old Seann's girlfriend's birthday as she wait for him at home, after telling him she was suspicious of his relationship with Katya. 

She later released a statement to say she had received no apology from Seann and that she had broken up from him. 

Despite the furore, the beleaguered dance partnership will take to the ballroom floor on Saturday evening, where they will perform the Charleston to Bills by Lunchmoney Lewis. 

It has been claimed that Seann and Katya have been flirting for weeks, leading up to the kiss.  

Insiders told The Metro, that the pair had chemistry since day one.  

An insider on the BBC dance show told the paper: 'I saw it in its early stages. Chemistry in and out of rehearsals and on and off the dance floor.'
