Strictly Come Dancing star Pasha Kovalev was robbed by thugs in North London on Thursday night.

According to The Sun, the pro dancer was mugged outside the Sadler’s Wells Theatre, and the robbers got away with Pasha’s mobile phone.

A source said: “One second he was outside on the phone, the next moment the moped pair drove at him aggressively and totally disorientated him.

“They mounted the pavement and in a flash his phone was out of his hand. He was knocked off balance and very upset.”

“As soon as it dawned on him what had happened he told people around him ‘The mobile is unlocked’.”

It’s believed Pasha is worried he won’t be able to recover personal photos from his phone, including snaps of him and his pregnant partner Rachel Riley.

The source continued: “The phone had lots of images on it. Pasha is doing everything he can to get to the bottom of this.”

Pasha and Rachel grew close when they were partnered together on Strictly back in 2013.

After splitting from her husband Jamie Gilbert, the Countdown star confirmed her romance with Pasha in 2014.

Then just last month, Rachel and Pasha announced that they are expecting their first child later this year.
