The couple beamed as they posed together on the red carpet, with Gleb gently resting his hand on Elena's bump before kneeling down to plant a tender kiss on her tummy. The enamoured dancer also couldn't resist kissing his wife on the cheek as they stepped out for the screening.Moscow-born Gleb, 33, recently appeared on screens in the US in the latest season of Dancing with the Stars. He announced his decision to leave Strictly last year in order to settle down in LA and focus more on his family, including the couple's six-year-old daughter Olivia.

Appearing on This Morning in July with Elena by his side, he said: "We spend a lot of time away from each other and it was really difficult for us, so I had to make a decision as a unit to be together as a whole family." He continued: "They were flying back and forth visiting me but it was really hard. Olivia is going to be starting school, she will be six in November. I want to be there for her, wake up with her every morning and cook her breakfast and take her to school."
