The last series of Strictly Come Dancing had more than its fair share of controversy - what with the various romances and spats backstage. But none was more controversial than the moment comedian Seann Walsh and his Strictly professional dance partner Katya Jones were caught kissing by photographers.

Although the pair released apology statements, with Katya affirming that the kiss wouldn't affect her marriage to fellow Strictly dancer Neil Jones, rumours were rife that things were not all happy families in the Jones household.

Onlookers and witnesses spoke out over the last few months of the year to reveal that, when they'd been at events together, Neil had been cold towards his wife - but the 35-year-old poured cold water on the talk in December during an Instagram Q&A, saying he'd "never been apart" from his wife.

Now, Katya and Neil, who have been married since 2013, have put on another united front during a holiday to Katya's home country of Russia.

They've both taken to Instagram to share cute pictures of their trip, but Neil poignantly shared a snap cuddling up to his wife, captioning it with a story about his love for ice skating.

Despite Neil's caption, fans were quick to notice the real meaning behind the picture, and commented saying that they were happy and relieved to see all was well again between the couple.

One wrote, 'What a lovely photo', as another added, 'Loving your videos from you and Katya, keep them coming' with many others commenting that it was a 'beautiful' snap of the pair.

Seann and Katya made it through two more weeks of Strictly after the kiss, and were voted out on the third. Although Katya and Neil have stayed together, Seann's now ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries dumped him straight away, saying it was the final straw of many misgivings over the five years they were together.
