‘I feel really bad…’ Louise and Jamie split is CONFIRMED – by Strictly’s Karen

Rumour has been abound for the last week or so - with Louise and Jamie Redknapp themselves doing nothing to dampen the gossip.

However, on Saturday, it was confirmed by Strictly Come Dancing's Karen Clifton that the duo had split. "On the show Louise grew in confidence and you could see her wings expanding," Karen, who is married to Louise's Strictly pro dance partner, Kevin, told The Sun. "It was great because she’s been a stay-at-home mum and sometimes you can forget about yourself." Karen, who is from Venezuela, concluded: "I just feel really bad that they’ve separated." Back in February, Louise and Karen, along with model Daisy Lowe and Strictly pro dancer Luba Mushtuk, were seen having a girls' pampering day - with Daisy sharing a snap of the quartet in a sauna.
