He revealed: “I was getting my stuff to leave. Stacey was in the loo.

“Her phone went and it was Kevin Clifton — ‘I love you’ with a red love heart.

“I grabbed the phone and confronted her. She said she’d tell me everything I needed to know.”

Sam went on to say how he had confronted Kevin over FaceTime: “He went white. I just stuck it on him: ‘You’re an absolute rat, how you conducted yourself. Just a slippery, slimy snake.’

"He didn’t say a word, he looked petrified, so shocked,” Sam said.

Stacey insists that the pair had actually been separated since having an argument on Boxing Day and she met up with Sam in March to confirm the end of the relationship.

Stacey and Kevin were dance partners on the 16th series of Strictly Come Dancing and went on to take home the glitterball in December 2018.
