Karen Hauer was spotted leaving the Strictly Come Dancing live final with a former rugby player. The professional dancer was snapped leaving BBC’s Elstree Studios in the back of a black vehicle while the man drove.
In pictures obtained by The Sun, Karen, 41, was making a getaway from the Hertfordshire set on Saturday evening. Since then, the mystery guy has been identified by the publication as sportsman Simon Davidson.
They state that he now works in marketing for Adidas and focuses on rugby, cricket and boxing. The images come just months after it was revealed that the Venezuelan star and her husband Jordan Wyn-Jones had parted ways 16 months after saying ‘I do’.
In November, Jordan, 34, got candid about their split and told MailOnline that he will “always admire” the star. Speaking to the publication, he continued: “I will always admire her [Karen] for her career but it took her away from me a lot.
“She’d be away and I’d be at home on my own. Karen has a lot of work on and she’s career-driven. That’s OK but I need a different type of support in a partner.

“I’m not saying she didn’t support me because she did, but she just wasn’t around,” he added. Karen first sparked rumours of a marriage split after she attended the Pride of Britain Awards without her wedding ring.
At the time, a source told The Mirror that the duo were having a “tough time” and had decided to part ways.
“It’s obviously very sad for both of them.
“But there’s no ill-will whatsoever. The split is amicable, and they wish each other the best,” the insider said.
The couple were wed back in Hampshire back in June 2022 and said their vows at the Chewton Glen Hotel.

At the time of the ceremony, the dancer said that it was “amazing” being able to have her family around her for the day.
Celebrities and co-stars such as Luba Mushtuk and Janette Manrara were also in attendance for the pair’s big day.
Prior to her marriage with Jordan, Karen was first wed to Matthew Hauer between 2000 to 2009.
Following their divorce, she got hitched to ex-Strictly professional Kevin Clifton, but the couple called it a day in 2018.
