Kevin Clifton and Stacey Dooley lifted the Strictly Come Dancing glitter ball trophy in 2018, an accolade not many people can boast. The pair stunned the judges and the viewing public alike to win the coveted prize.

Almost two years since they started training together for Strictly, the duo have proved they still have moves.

Kevin and Stacey are now a couple and live together. They've shared insights into their lockdown routine, posting sweet pictures and videos.

While Stacey's been filming at home for her day job as a documentary maker, Kevin's been recording episodes of his podcast. Clearly fans of keeping busy, the pair have also been dancing, it's transpired.

Kevin and Stacey appear in the new music video of Jessie Ware's Save A Kiss, which features various people dancing in their homes.

Kevin directed fans to watch the video and keep an eye out for "a couple of cameos".

Stacey took to Twitter to congratulate Jessie for the video.

While the duo have clearly still got a love of dancing together, we know Kevin won't be taking part in Strictly Come Dancing again.

Back in March, Kevin announced his departure from the show, saying:

"I've achieved everything I wanted to achieve on the show now, in terms of winning all the trophies, but also in terms of having such an array of different celebrities," he explained. "I'm always looking for new challenges. I'm always looking to learn and grow all the time.

"If I was 23, it would be different. I'd be looking at Strictly as, 'I can stay on this for the next 10/15 years'. At 37, I'm thinking, 'I'm going to turn 38 in the next series. If it's going to be a similar season to something I've already done in some way...

"'I don't see myself doing this into my 40s. I'm going to have to leave at some point, so there has to come a point where I say, now's the time.'"

Of course, due to the current global pandemic, it's unclear whether Strictly as we know and love it will be able to go ahead in 2020. Here's what we know about this year's planned series.
