Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Nikita Kuzmin is smashing this year's series of the BBC Ballroom and Latin competition and fans are loving his incredible partnership with Bad Education actor and West End star Layton Williams.
And it seems the Ukranian dancer is getting full support from his mum and dad, who recently visited the show, and his girlfriend, Lauren Jaine.
The sweet couple haven't spoken out about their relationship so it's clear that they prefer to keep their romance to themselves, but they have posted a number of sweet photos in recent times.
Nikita's fans were thrilled when the dancer posted a photo of his girlfriend Lauren on his Instagram for the first time. Let's take a look at their sweetest snaps…
Earlier this month, Nikita shared a sweet mirror selfie of him and Lauren. The pair looked super stylish in their matching black outfits, with Lauren rocking a chic strapless dress and Nikita in a smart, short-sleeved shirt.

In one photo shared on Lauren's Instagram, the pair pose for a fresh-faced beachside selfie. Other photos showed off the gorgeous coastal views Croatia has to offer. Another cool snap saw Nikita underwater as the pair enjoyed some diving.

While Nikita's parents were in the audience, the dancer spoke out about how much it meant to him for his mum and dad to watch him dance live on the show for the first time.
