EastEnders star Bobby Brazier has reportedly struck up a romance with his co-star Jazzy Phoenix, following his split Strictly winner Ellie Leach.
According to The Sun on Sunday, the pair went on a romantic dinner date to the lavish Bagatelle restaurant in London’s Mayfair this weekend.
A source told the newspaper: “Bobby is enjoying getting to know Jazzy.”
The insider continued: “He loves that they both share a passion for acting and he, of course, thinks she is very beautiful.”
“She is flattered by his interest, especially as she is returning to EastEnders soon to reprise her role.”
“The timing is ideal. He is a perfect gentleman and treats her very well.”
The actor, 20, joined EastEnders as Freddie Slater in 2022, while Jazzy, 23, recently reprised her role as sex worker Nadine in the BBC soap.
Fans recently spotted Bobby flirting with Jazzy on social media.
The soap star left love heart emojis underneath a picture on her Instagram, and commented: “‘Stop it. Too much for me.”
Bobby’s new romance comes after his previous fling with his Strictly co-star Ellie Leach.
However, it’s understood “there are no hard feelings with Ellie”, and the insider added: “Their whirlwind romance just fizzled out.”
The two Strictly stars met on last year’s season of the show, which Ellie went on to win with partner Vito Coppola.
The pair grew closer and confirmed their relationship this year while taking part in the BBC1 show’s tour.
However, Bobby and Ellie ended their whirlwind romance just days after making it “Instagram official”.
A source told The Sun about their split: “Love blossomed between them when they were in close quarters on the tour, but once that ended they both spent much less time together.”
“So they decided the best thing to do was quit while they were ahead and while they were still pals because they both really cherish the friendship they have.”
