EASTENDERS actor Jamie Borthwick has got tongues wagging after looking cosy with his Strictly Come Dancing pro partner Michelle - and fans can't help but notice their sizzling chemistry.
The dancing duo were seen gazing into each other's eyes lovingly while having an in depth conversation.
The pair were spotted looking more familiar than ever while enjoying the Blackpool sights ahead of the weekend's competition.
Getting some R&R before their upcoming dance, the pair fuelled up on a classic portion of fish and chips.
The twosome turned heads as they leant into each other and whispered into each other's ears.
They have been busy preparing for week 9's Jive to The Ketchup Song by Las Ketchup.
The soap actor and his partner were seen letting their hair down and relaxing with fish and chips as they got some well-needed downtime.
It comes after the BBC soap star, 30, revealed he had enjoyed a "cosy" night with his show partner Michelle Tsiakkas, 29.
Romance rumours between the two have been sparked through the series.
Their close relationship was confirmed when a show microphone picked up a very cheeky four word remark from the actor.
Although Jamie has previously referred to brunette beauty Michelle as being like a "sister", fans are certain romance is blossoming between them.
Jamie previously admitted to spending a 'cosy night' with his partner and recently called her ‘my girl’.
Fans have long noticed the chemistry between the pair as they speculated that something more might be bubbling under the surface.
The star embraced his partner and revealed in the Claudatorium last week: "I've had the best week.
"Yeah, exactly that, [it was] the dance I wanted to do, favourite song, went to West Ham."
Looking lovingly at his Strictly Come Dancing partner, he remarked: "Been with my girl," before putting his arm around her.
After embracing her, he added: "It's just been the best week."
Meanwhile, Michelle said in response: "It was just us two on that dance floor, and it was an indescribable feeling for me.
"I had such a good time and you should be so proud of yourself."
It came after the Jay Brown actor - who has starred on the BBC soap since 2006 - was been linked to co-star Jazzy Phoenix, 24.
Prior to the live BBC shows, he opened up on his training prep.
Jamie denied switching up his lifestyle to accommodate the hectic training schedule and said: "No booze ban for me.
"I've never drunk ever in my life and no one loves me, so I can't do a sex ban!
"No bans for me, just loads of food."
