Strictly Come Dancing star Ross King reportedly enjoyed a secret romance with an unidentified BBC presenter following the breakdown of his marriage to Brianna Deutsch. The 63-year-old Lorraine presenter, who is currently competing on the BBC dance show, is said to have had the under-the-radar fling after separating from Deutsch in 2018.
A source told the Mirror: 'They had been friends for a while, but nothing happened until long after he and Brianna were separated. They kept it out of the public eye because of their profile. Neither of them wanted the pressure of people talking.' However, the romance is said to have 'fizzled out', and King is now reportedly 'happy dating' his new girlfriend, Bridget Siegel, 43, who has been seen supporting him at Strictly.
King, who is partnered with Jowita Przystal on the show, has been married twice before: to Charley King from 1999 to 2006 and to Brianna Deutsch from 2015 until 2022. Despite a record-low score of eight in his first live performance—the lowest since Quentin Wilson in 2004—King remains in the competition. He admitted he considered quitting, saying: 'At one point I thought I may have to put my hands up and just say maybe this is not for me.'
