STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Nadiya Bychkova has gone back to her ex — leaving pro dancer lover Kai Widdrington behind.

Nadiya, 32, has travelled to her native Slovenia and is staying at the home of her former fiance, footballer Matija Skarabot.

She was pictured enjoying a stroll in the sunshine with her mum and daughter — who also live with Matija.

But Kai, 26 — who Nadiya has been enjoying a fling with on the Strictly tour — was nowhere to be seen.

Last month furious defender Matija, 34, unfollowed Nadiya on social media after The Sun revealed pictures of her kissing Kai in a hotel bar.

But this weekend Matija threw a party to welcome her back and even let her drive his Porsche.

Nadiya was greeted with flowers and a £135 bottle of champagne when she arrived back to see daughter Mila, seven, and her mum Larisa.

A source told The Sun: “Nadiya has been away for months, but has missed her family desperately, especially her daughter.

“After the tour she couldn’t wait to get back to them and see everyone.

“It’s tricky for her being with Kai. Everything back home is still as it was before. Her mum lives with her ex-fiance in the same house and Nadiya still even drives his car.

“As far as everyone is concerned in Slovenia, people think they’re still together.

“It looks as though she will fly back and forth to make things work, but she still sees Slovenia as home so it’s going to be rather difficult.

“She’s got some time off now but there will be rehearsals coming up soon for the Strictly Professionals tour which stars in April — which Kai is on, too.”

Neither Nadiya, Matija nor Kai commented.
