Strictly Come Dancing 2018 contestant Seann Walsh, 32, and professional dance partner Katya Jones, 29, were pictured kissing in London on Wednesday last week.
Seann and Katya, who are both in relationships, have since apologised for their actions and any offence caused.
In a statement shared in view of her 50,900 followers, Katya said: "I love my husband and we are very happy together."
Following their apologies, an unearthed clip from It Takes Two in 2016, Zoe Ball, 47, can be seen joking about Katya and Neil's marriage.
In a clip from December 2016, Katya and Neil joined Zoe to take part in the pro challenge on the spin-off show.
The dancers were seen competing against one another to see who could do the most amount of Jive flicks and kicks in thirty seconds.
Speaking about how they prepared for the challenge, Katya said they practised separately.
She revealed: “I’m in one bedroom, he’s in the bathroom, locked up!”
“Right ok, does she leave you like that all the time?” Zoe asked Neil.
She then cheekily quipped: "That's how to make a marriage work."
Both Katya and Neil's attempt at the challenge was then shown.
Zoe announced Katya’s score first and whilst she got a grand total of 67 Jive flicks and kicks, 50 of those were disqualified.
Viewers saw Katya outraged, standing up and stomping her feet, unhappy with the outcome.
Neil on the other hand, fell about laughing at her score and Zoe was quick to comment on his reaction.
She laughed: “I love the fact you get the great support from your husband there.”
On Saturday night, Katya performed an incredible Paso Doble with her celebrity partner Seann.
The pair set their routine to The Matrix following the theme of Movie Week.
Katya and Seann incorporated stunning slow-motion moves into their routine which blew the judges away.
They scored a total of 30 points from the judges for their performance.
Strictly Come Dancing 2018 returns Saturday night at 6.40pm on BBC One and It Takes Two airs weeknights at 6.30pm on BBC Two.
