There’s a new celebrity couple and they’re all loved-up.

Emmerdale’s Anthony Quinlan and Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer Diane Buswell are said to be dating, introduced by mutual friend Gemma Atkinson.

As Strictly devotees will know, Dianne was paired with Reverend Richard Coles this year and they were voted off in Movie Week, the third week of the 2017 series.

Soap fans are sure to recognise Anthony Quinlan for he played Gillie Roach in Hollyoaks before going to to take on the role of Pete Barton in Emmerdale.

Anthony has been one of the main characters in Emmerdale since 2013 and has been involved in a number of major storylines.

A source told The Sun that the new couple were pictured at the Strictly Come Dancing final last weekend and they looked every inch the new couple.

Although Anthony brought Jamie Lomas, his friend and former Hollyoaks co-star along with him, Dianne had his full attention and he even introduced her to his pal.

Apparently, Dianne even found the time to run off and give him a hug between dances…CUTE.

A source told the publication:

“Anthony and Dianne looked very cosy on Saturday night in the studio. He has told pals he is really into her and made the trip down to London to see her”.

Here’s hoping we get a couple photo soon!
