Following the show, Nadiya shared some beautiful words in honour of her partner, and praised him for being an "incredible man".
"I am so grateful I got to teach and to dance with this incredible man, a music icon. But more importantly I got to know real you @mattgoss. And you are tender, kind and the truest of gentlemen.
"We were stood there, watching Kim dancing in the dance off, and he was saying: 'As a gentleman, I can't compete with a lady @marsh_kym, with a friend. He loves and cares about each and every one there @bbcstrictly it was difficult to compete for him, because he didn't want anyone to leave the competition. He is a real gentleman and more. I couldn't be more proud of you partner. And I feel so lucky now I have a friend like you in this world," she added.

Matt is yet to speak out on social media, but following the announcement of the results, he told Tess Daly: " "It’s an extraordinary experience, I have been in America for 25 years.
"Thank you judges for your candour, you’ve helped me in many ways… This lovely lady beside me, a world champion with all the patience.
"I am very honoured to have danced with you, and everyone who is still in, I love you guys, go smash it guys."
