Fans of Strictly Come Dancing are convinced that pro Neil Jones and former footballer Alex Scott are in love with each other.

After the pair performed in the dance-off on Sunday night’s (01.12.19) episode against comedian Chris Ramsey and his professional partner Karen Hauer, the judges decided to save the latter couple.

On Twitter, viewers were convinced they saw a spark of romance between Alex and Neil – with some even claiming the duo are in love.

One tweeted: “No one will ever convince me that Neil and Alex aren’t in love… #strictly.”

Someone else said: “Not saying Alex and Neil are in love but I’m not not saying Alex and Neil are in love, you know? #Strictly.”

Another wrote: “Now Alex and Neil are out can they reveal they’re in love please? #Strictly.”

After their elimination, Neil posted a gushing tribute to Alex on Instagram and told his followers she had made him feel “joyful” from “the first moment” they started out on their dancing journey together.

Posting a pic of the two of them on the show, Neil wrote: “Joyful Joyful was the perfect song to end our @bbcstrictly journey together because from the first moment we started together, that’s how you have made me feel.

“From day one, I have taken my time to get to know you @alexscott2 MBE as I really wanted to make sure that you enjoyed every moment.”

Now Alex and Neil are out can they reveal they’re in love please?

He continued: “All I can say is the nation has seen the real you. I’ve said it a million times that you have made me proud and you have made me smile.

“Of course, I was there to teach you how to dance but you taught me sooooo much more and the biggest lesson I learnt was to always be myself and never change.”

In the comments, his followers were similarly convinced the pair are made for each other.

“Aaaw you guys! You look great together!” said one fan, adding the hashtags, “#Cutecouple #glowing #madeforeachother #happypeeps.”
