Strictly's Saffron on Goggleboxer romance rumoursBBC - BBC

It's official Strictly Come Dancing and Gogglebox duo Saffron Barker and Tom Malone Jr are not going out.

Rumours of a romance between the reality stars emerged around the start of the year, when Saffron and Tom appeared in a Grease-inspired picture together.

However, Saffron has now addressed the speculation to clear the air about the nature of their relationship.

On a recent episode of the podcast Sex, Lies and DM Slides, the subject of their "couples photo" was put on the table.

"It was planned, it was planned to be fair," Saffron told co-host Anastasia Kingsnorth.

"The theme of my New Years Eve party was come as the first letter of your name. So immediately I was like, 'I'm going to be Sandy from Grease'. Then I was like, 'Oh my God I really want a Danny'. There was no Ds there. So I was like what am I going to do."

"Then I figured T Bird... I literally voice-noted Tom and was like, 'Is there any way you can be my Danny and come as a T Bird?'.

"Everyone suddenly thought... it did look like a couples outfit, which it essentially is. So everyone thought we were together, but we're not. That's the truth," she went on to clarify.

Meanwhile, in the actual dating world, fellow Strictly competitors Molly Rainford and Tyler West finally confirmed their relationship in a sweet TikTok clip this month.

Gogglebox airs on Friday nights at 9pm on Channel 4 and streams on All4. Strictly Come Dancing can be found over on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
