‘I KNEW JAMIE WAS SPECIAL AS SOON AS I MET HIM'

Karen Hauer and Jamie Laing have been a match made in Strictly heaven. Not only have they looked great together with their twinning hair, but the pair have also created magic on the dance floor.

While Jamie got off to a slightly rocky start at the beginning of the series, the Made In Chelsea star and Karen wowed viewers with their epic street dance routine – which saw them shoot straight to the top of the leaderboard with two 10s.

But Karen admits that all the stars have been amazing in this year’s competition.“It’s such a tough year because everybody is absolutely incredible,” she says. “We say this every year but this year is like no other. Everyone is so good and everyone has been pushing themselves.”

Here, Karen, 38, tells OK! about her close bond with Jamie, 32, meeting his girlfriend Sophie Habboo and her plans for when Strictly is all over…

Have you been enjoying Strictly this year, Karen?
