Strictly Come Dancing winners Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley have only been an item since last month, but reports suggest she’s already moved into his South East London home since returning from filming in Portugal last month.

Stacey swiftly moved out of the Brighton flat she shared with ex-boyfriend Sam Tucknott when the couple split earlier this year, before going public with her new romance with Kevin.

“Stacey needed somewhere else to live. Kevin has been really relaxed about letting her stay and so far it’s working really well,” a source told The Sun.

“Stacey is not sure whether she’ll stay for good but for now it’s a good place for her to set up base.”

After getting dance lessons ahead of his wedding to former TOWIE star Billie Faiers, Greg Shepherd sent out a plea to Strictly bosses to sign him up on The Mummy Diaries.

Stacey and Sam’s relationship was thought to be under strain for some time before they split, with a source citing her hectic rehearsal schedule and time away from home performing on the Strictly Live Tour as reason for their distance.

But it wasn’t until the former couple had already decided to split that Sam made the allegations that she’d grown close to her Strictly dance partner Kevin, after he claimed he found an incriminating message on her phone.

“I am so respectful of her, but I am gutted and I am disappointed and I feel so let down that she did not have the respect for me to tell me and just come clean,” Sam told The Mail Online.

“Adults make their own choices. I just know that [Kevin] is a slippery snake – a proper rat,”

And speaking of the moment he confronted his love rival, Sam continued, “He went white. I just stuck it on him, ‘You’re an absolute rat. How you conducted yourself. Just a slippery, slimy snake.’

“He didn’t say a word. He looked petrified. He looked so shocked."
