She is one of the most popular dancers on Strictly Come Dancing – not just with viewers but also with her fellow dancers.

Strictly professional Jowita Przystal, 30, was linked to fellow dancer Vito Coppola, 32, this weekend as the pair are reportedly dating after having major chemistry behind the scenes during the BBC series.

However, body language expert Judi James exclusively told MailOnline that the new coupling appears a ‘little obvious’ and ‘rather clunky’, suggesting it’s simply manufactured for the benefit of fans ahead of the show’s UK tour.

She also said Jowita and Vito’s sensual performances together prove nothing as they are both trained dancers who can easily ‘imply passion’ and pointed out that when not on the dance floor appear ‘bland’ in each other’s company.

This is not the first time the Polish beauty has been associated with or dated a fellow dancer.

Before joining the BBC dance show in 2021, she dated dancer and choreographer, Michael Danilczuk for several years.

The duo first met at a summer dance camp in Krakow in 2013 and their website at the time noted that they fell in love ten months after they were introduced.

‘Things just started to change the more we hung out and got to know each other, I started to really like him,’ Jowita said at the time.

‘He would do funny little things like drive the wrong way home from rehearsals to spend more time together.’

After partnering up, Jowita and Michael were crowned the Polish Open Latin Champions in 2014.

They also performed on US cruise ship tours for Priscilla, Rock Of Ages and Legally Blonde.

By 2015, Jowita and Michael had called time on their competitive career and moved to the UK in 2019.

They were catapulted to success in the UK after they won series two of the BBC show The Greatest Dancer in 2020.

And despite both expressing interest in wanting to be on Strictly, only Jowita was signed up.

By March of that year, it was reported that Jowita and Giovanni had called it quits due to their busy schedules

After it was announced Jowita would be a Strictly dancer that year, Michael proudly took to social media in a gushing tribute to his then girlfriend.

He wrote: ‘I am so ecstatic to share with you all that my Babe made her biggest dream Come True. She is now one of the NEW PRO DANCERS on @bbcstrictly 2021.

‘I am super proud of You @jowitaprzystal . You are the most hardworking person on this planet and I know you will be outstanding. I know how much this means to you.

‘I love you from the bottom of my heart and I know everyone will see what I see in you! Time to SMASH IT BABE!’.

Little is known about their split, but reports that Jowita and Michael had broken up began in December 2022.

In the months that followed, fans became convinced that she was dating her Strictly co-star, Giovanni Pernice.

Co-stars Jowita and Giovanni were said to have developed a romance during the 2022 series, with reports saying they had been spotted kissing backstage in December.

In January 2023 the Strictly stars were pictures leaving Giovanni’s London flat.

Leaving 30 minutes between one another, they were however careful not to leave together.

By March of that year, it was reported that Jowita and Giovanni had called it quits.

Giovanni’s busy schedule, which included a five-month tour at the time, was said to have made spending time together ‘absolutely impossible.’

In July of this year before the new series started, she was linked to Strictly assistant choreographer Arduino Bertoncello after they were photographed together leaving multiple events.

Still close, last week Jowita posted a picture with the choreographer saying: ‘Love to dance with you @arduinobertoncello. One of my favourite group numbers this year.’

For the 2023 Christmas special she was partnered with ex-England rugby star Danny Cipriani, 37.

At the time Cipriani’s estranged wife Victoria said she had been left ‘devastated’ after seeing cosy pictures of the Strictly couple, just two weeks after they parted ways.

Sources at the time said: ‘BBC bosses must have had some idea it would be a sizzling pairing on the dancefloor, but on a personal level probably didn’t expect them to get so close, so soon.’

Although it was never confirmed if an official romance had struck up.

This year Jowita was partnered with TOWIE’s Pete Wicks, 36.

Throughout the whole series the couple were doused with romance rumours due to the chemistry and steamy performances.

Asource said: ‘The chemistry on set is palpable. But Vito is very respectful of Jowita and has been trying to woo her all series’

In early December one routine saw them end a dance with a kiss.

It was said at the time Pete was ‘playing with fire’ after he was linked to both the dancer as well as Love Island star Maura Higgins.

And after starring on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity this year, Maura confirmed her romance with Pete whilst in the jungle and since leaving, the pair have been seen together.

With the series now over and Pete and Jowita voted out in the penultimate show, it seems Jowita has moved on with her fellow professional.

Jowita and Vito previously sparked romance rumours earlier this year during the Strictly Come Dancing: The Professionals live UK tour.

In May whilst on the road for the shows the pair were said to have been getting closer.

This weekend a source told The Sun: ‘There have been several flings going on under the radar this year but people are talking behind the scenes.

‘The chemistry on set is palpable. But Vito is very respectful of Jowita and has been trying to woo her all series.

‘Now that her partner Pete Wicks is no longer around to distract her, Vito can finally take centre stage. The Strictly Come Dancing tour is set to be lively next year,’ they added.
