Strictly’s Neil Jones has found love with Colombian dancer Luisa Eusse a year after marriage split with Katya Jones

STRICTLY pro dancer Neil Jones has found love with a stunning Colombian dancer – exactly a year on from his split with Katya Jones.

Neil and Katya ended their six year marriage last August, after she was pictured snogging her celebrity dance partner Seann Walsh.

The ballroom champ met gorgeous Luisa Eusse while visiting South America eight months ago.

A source said: “Neil is smitten with Luisa and they’re a very sweet couple.
“After they were introduced they stayed in touch but it’s been hard with the lockdown restrictions.

“Since they lifted Luisa flew to London last month and has been staying at Neil’s flat.

“They’re taking it slowly but both are serious about this relationship and it’s clear Neil is head-over-heels.”

Neil, 38, revealed last week that he had started dating someone but he has kept their relationship out of the spotlight.

Luisa, who also works as a model, has posted pictures of herself in Neil’s London flat.

The pair also visited Brighton together with pals in July, with Neil pictured with his arms around Luisa.

Following his split with Katya, 31, who is also a dancer on the BBC show, Neil revealed how he had battled to save their union.

Katya was caught kissing Seann, 34, outside a London pub in the middle of the 2018 series, throwing the show into crisis.

Neil stuck by Katya for a following ten months before the pair decided to split.

He has always maintained they chose to divorce amicably and told The Sun at the time: “We found that we’d grown apart like people do, so we were like, ‘OK, let’s go our separate ways’. We are lucky that we don’t have kids.

“We were moving in different directions but we are friends again now. Katya is a great girl and I’ve got nothing bad to say about her.”

A spokesman for Neil declined to comment.
