A special episode of DIY SOS starring Strictly Come Dancing fave Katya Jones will no doubt have viewers reaching for their phones to look up – or remind themselves – about Katya’s personal life away from the cameras.
As while the likes of Anton Du Beke, Luba Mushtuk, Graziano Di Prima, and Nancy Xu will also be on hand for the build of dance facilities for a performing arts school in North Tyneside, it is Katya who has previously been caught up in show drama… particularly when it comes to the Strictly curse!
Here’s what you need to know about the popular star Katya Jones and her love life…

Katya Jones relationships: Strictly scandal
Back in 2018, Katya had been part of Strictly for two years. In that time she partnered with former Labour MP Ed Balls, and then actor Joe McFadden, with whom she won the 2017.
But for Strictly’s 16th run, Katya danced with stand up Seann Walsh – and they created more headlines than her Glitterball-winning run the year before.
At the time he was in a relationship with actress Rebecca Humphries, and Katya was married to Strictly co-star Neil Jones. However, they were photographed kissing in the street in London.
The fallout saw Katya and Seann make apologies on It Takes Two, with Seann branded a ‘love rat’ in tabloid reports.
At the time, Katya also wrote 0n Twitter: “I’m so sorry about any offence or hurt I may have caused with my actions. I wasn’t thinking and it was a one-off mistake after some drinks.
I love my husband and we are very happy together.
“I love my husband and we are very happy together. This is not a reflection on our relationship.”
