I must say I have always wondered how Flavia managed to have a romantic relationship with Matt for so long.I think she seemed to have always had a very hectic schedule,and spent a lot of time with her ex.I dont think I have ever seen them pictured together either.I just dont see why the work is a problem 3 years down the line....seemed like a bit of a non relationship.

Hi Sid. I am summizing from your post that you are the same Sid that used to post on the BBC forum (Sid 1979). You still have the ability to make me smile and I would fight you for Jimi but personally prefer Matt.

I have to agree with your comments. Very sad they have split but find it odd as Flavia has always been a workaholic and I have always wondered how it worked so there was nothing new there also apart from Hustle Matt has hardly been doing any work that we know of - very strange.
Must admit to thinking Flavia had never looked so happy as when with Jimmi but time will tell.
I think Matt was to young to settle down so hope he gets out and about and enjoys being young again.

Also re: the showmance with Ali and Brian I think it was on Brian's part but somehow I think it was real with Ali.

actually gutted

I am very sorry that Matt and Flavia have split.......its very hard when both members of a couple work so hard. I hope Flavia finds someone else that she can be happy with, if she hasnt already. After the horror or Craig Kelly last year its been lovely to see her laughing and joking with Jimi.....She would probably (very understandably) have been a bit down after the end of her relationship and I think dancing with Jimi has been just the tonic she needed. Shame it finished so early really. We dont know yet if she is touring do we

They did seem to be very close - Flavia looked to be having the time of her life, enjoying the whole experience this year - her being single and Jimi being separated for four years now explains a great deal. I think Flavia's fans never suspected a thing as they were always talking about her and Matt as a couple, although pictures and news of them together was sparse for a pair supposed to have been together for three years. Both had hectic schedules and the 7 year age gap may have added to the difficulties as well.

Surprised it lasted as long as it did to be honest.

According to the tabloids Matt cheated on Flavia with Michelle Heaton - I think it was last April, though I'm not sure how when Flav and Matt actually split.

Her husband Andy Scott Lee spilt the beans.

I was always surprised they were together, Flavia just seemed so more grown up and Matt so young.

It sure would explain the crying and wailing, and constant remorse and synpathy from all quarters when Jimi and Flavia were voted out.

I don't think she and Vincent would be, Jan.

According to their website they are holding their dance classes in January and February, and then I imagine they would be involved in preparations and rehearsals for their own tour.

It was actually in 2008 that Andy Scott Lee made this claim, and I think it's been scotched pretty comprehensively.

No they aren't doing it Jan....They've got a lot of choreography to prepare for their Midnight Tango tour and are apparently working on that instead

Thats a shame.......not that I have tickets this year.

I've got a couple of tickets, but I will miss them from it...the show just wasn't the same for me last year without them there.

I've got a ticket, but I've a feeling I'm going to struggle to offload it with the lack of decent pros on there

I may end up going in the end just to make use of it!

matt may not be the brightest,but anyone would have to be mad to cheat on flavia,especially with michelle heaton,she's a ten to two girl.hopefully this isnt true.

It isn't

It was a bunch of lies

It was reported in both the DM and the Sun and much as question their sources I think this time it might be true.

It wasn't true Ignazio....both MH and her husband ended up saying that it never actually happened in the end up. MH said that although she did like him, he was never interested in her as he was 'Mad about Flavia'..(her words).....she wrote about it on her facebook page to her friend or something and her husband saw it and it was reported wrongly. They both said so in the end.

I'm glad it wasn't true - wouldn't like to see Flavia getting her heart broken.

No I think that was a long time ago If I remember correctly, and dont think there was any truth in it.I dont think looking at Flavia with Jimmy these past weeks she looked like someone broken hearted....in fact she looked the happiest ive ever seen here

Yes 'tis me

Nice to see you here ali - what a shame they had to close the BBC forum, the blogs aren't quite the same are they?

Matt's all yours

It's such a shame that they have split up they looked so good together you never know some time apart may make them realise what they have,
