Cole romance ‘could go distance’ says singer
The Bradford-born singer, who made it to the final in the last series of Strictly Come Dancing, said Cole’s relationship with the American was “real”.
She told Jonathan Ross: “She’s known him for quite a long time. A few years, he danced for her the first time years and years ago. Yeah he’s a lovely guy so I’m happy that he makes her happy. I think it could definitely go the distance, yeah they’re really happy.”

She said rumours of romance between this year’s Strictly contestants were wide of the mark, telling Ross: “I think it was actually the first year that there’s been no affairs backstage, I think everyone was really disappointed actually. It is a really intimate situation, you’re spending six/seven hours a day and it’s quite physical but yeah, nothing happened this year.”
Walsh was joined on Ross’s ITV chat show by comic Jo Brand and Les Misérables star Eddie Redmayne.
