And now Carlos has raised eyebrows among fans with a bold move on Instagram.

He shared a series of snaps - including one of pros Nancy, Johanes Radebe, Jowita Przystal, Aljaz Skorjanec and Nikita Kuzmin.

His followers were quick to notice Carlos tagged all of his co-stars except Nancy.

One wrote: "Why didn't you tag Nancy?"

Another said: "I don't think they're friends anymore."

And someone else commented: "Oh no they had such a good friendship."

Nancy and Carlos, who both grew up in China, used to be best mates — with him branding her his “favourite sister” and Nancy calling him “my baby brother”.

Their rift comes while he is said to be disappointed at not getting a celebrity partner this year — and Nancy has been focused on her pairing with Shayne Ward, 40.

And the fall out is causing backstage chaos, with them being stood far apart from each other in while the stars chatted to host Claudia Winkleman on Saturday night.

An insider said: “The feud between Nancy and Carlos is really sad and has left everyone really shocked.

“They’ve been close since childhood, but have fallen out and unfollowed each other on socials.

“The atmosphere on set is said to be awkward and tense when both are around, and to many it was a relief when Carlos didn’t attend the show weeks ago.

“Carlos is said to be subdued after the falling-out and is also struggling with not getting a celebrity partner."

It comes after The Sun revealed former couple Nadiya Bychkova and Kai Widdrington were refusing to stand next to each other on screen, causing more chaos.

A source said: "It's painfully obvious Nadiya and Kai are in the awkward post-break up phase and struggling to be near one another."
