Caroline Flack feels "intimate" with her ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ partner, Pasha Kovalev.
The former ‘Xtra Factor’ host has been speaking about her relationship with the professional dancer and revealed she’s surprised by how close they’ve become in such a short space of time while training for the BBC One dance contest.
She said: "It’s funny how intimate it becomes though, like quickly.
"You don’t know this person and then you are doing the tango and you have your thigh between their thighs all day."
However, Caroline – who is dating music manager Jack Street – insists there are no romantic feelings between her and Pasha, 34, who is dating his celebrity partner from last year’s series, ‘Countdown’ beauty Rachel Riley.
The 34-year-old beauty also rubbished claims she’s taking part in Strictly to get back at ITV rivals ‘The X Factor’ after her ‘Xtra Factor’ job was given to her pal Sarah-Jane Crawford, 29, earlier this year.
Speaking on ‘Alan Carr: Chatty Man’, she’s reported by the Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: "People have said I have done it on purpose, I have gone to the rival.
"I watch ‘The X Factor’ on catch up. I don’t see it like that. The job I was doing was no longer mine and Strictly came up at the right time and it was good timing.
"I had three brilliant years on X Factor but this year is really good."
