Strictly’s Nadiya Bychkova posts cryptic quote about ‘being a single parent’ after split from Kai Widdrington

STRICTLY star Nadiya Bychkova has shared a cryptic clue to her break up recovery after she and dancer Kai Widdrington called tiem on their two year romance.

Sharing a quote to her Instagram Stories, Nadiya appeared to send a cryptic message amid the break up that has reportedly left her 'unable to be in the same room' as ex Kai Widdrington.

The quote read: "As a single mom I work hard because I simply can't afford not to.

";I have no one ot fall back on. I am the back up plan."

Hinting at going it alone, Nadiya could be referring to parenting her daughter Mila, who she shares with former partner Slovenian footballer Matija Skarabot.

However during her two year relationship with Kai, who she began dating in 2022, she had hinted that her daughter and the dancer had formed a close bond.

The couple split earlier this month with a friend revealing exclusively to The Sun that they just "grew apart" after two "blissful" years together.

The friend explained: "It’s heartbreaking, Kai and Nadiya seemed like the most perfect couple and have been so, so blissfully in love.

"But the pressures of touring - being in each other’s space 24/7, and the stress of performing a sell-out show eventually took its toll. 

"After a tough few weeks, they sat down together and decided to call it quits.

"They remain incredibly close and are determined their split will not have any impact on the next series of Strictly - they remain consummate professionals, and nothing will change that."

However in the days that followed since the couple's split, it appears things have become less amicable.

The former couple had been scheduled to host a Strictly Come Dancing themed event at Donaheys - a five-star Celtic Manor Resort in Newport.

Hotel guests were set to be treated to waltz lessons from the couple for Donaheys' Dancing With The Stars event.

However, latin dancer Rebecca Scott stepped in for Nadiya at the last minute.

A source told the newspaper: "Nadiya is really angry at Kai.

"She doesn't want to be in the same room as him.

"They have had a huge fall out and things are bad between them. There is a whole series to get through of dancing on the same show. The Strictly team are bracing themselves for this nightmare now.''
