Earlier this year, Jazzy was thought to be in a relationship with her other co-star Bobby Brazier.

Seemingly confirming the romance with the 21-year-old Strictly star when she shared a snap of a bouquet of pink and white flowers which was later deleted.

Just hours earlier, Bobby, who plays Freddie Slater in the BBC soap, shared a photo of the same bouquet, which was wrapped in off-white paper.

Jazzy, who plays sex worker Nadine in EastEnders, added a smiley face and white heart emoji to the post.

Meanwhile, almost a year after Bobby reached the final of Strictly Come Dancing, it was announced that Jamie was gearing up to take part in the show.

His time on Strictly Come Dancing will mark his return to Strictly Come Dancing after competing in the Christmas Special last year, being crowned champion alongside professional dancer Nancy Xu.

He said: ‘I had so much fun doing the Strictly Christmas special last year, so when I was asked to join this series, the easy answer was yes!

‘This is a new challenge and it will be very different to learn a new dance every week and have the audience give their opinion.

Jazzy recently reprised her role as sex worker Nadine on the show.

‘I hope to be dancing salsa in Albert Square before long and will be asking my Walford Strictly alumni for some words of wisdom.

‘See you on the dance floor!’

In 2008, his role in EastEnders earned him a British Soap Award for Best Drama Performance by a Young Actor, and he went on to win Best Actor at the Inside Soap Awards in 2023.

Other stars included in this year’s Strictly line-up include Love Island’s Tasha Ghouri, X Factor winner and former Corrie star Shayne Ward and singer Toyah Willcox.
