STRICTLY star George Clarke seemingly revealed he’s dating a stunning lingerie model – only hours before his involvement was confirmed.
The social media personality, 25, was unveiled as the sixth name to sign up for Strictly this year.
Fans claimed on Reddit that George confirmed he was dating lingerie model Yasmin Amelia during a live stream on social media.
One wrote: “Caught me off guard because he is a very private person specially about his dating/love life.
“Even on the pod he has expressed his desire to keep things private and off socials.
“Often relies on the “can’t talk to women”/catfish story to dodge specific relationship questions.
“Wonder whose idea it really was to all of a sudden hard launch his month and a half long relationship?”
The Sun contacted George’s reps for comment.
Meanwhile, the fan continued by saying they saw clips from George’s live stream and that he’d said the name “Yasmin A.”
They added: “[He] confirmed he follows her insta and requested to give her space to be her own person.”
Another remarked: “I heard about this on his stream and i’m genuinely happy for him!”
While a third chimed in: “I don;t think he expected to do it that way on stream but it felt so natural that he did it.
“But he said only said her name and how they met but he did say he will be keeping it private but u might see her in pictures etc.”
