Bobby Brazier has been ‘secretly dating’ a fashion consultant for over a year.

The EastEnders star, 20, is currently competing on Strictly Come Dancing with professional dance partner Dianne Buswell, 34.

Since meeting, the pair have become incredibly close, with Bobby recently declaring he ‘loved’ Dianne, while she labelled him her ‘rock’.

While it was recently revealed he had been getting plenty of attention from female admirers on social media. Bobby said that he was instead focusing on working towards securing the Glitterball Trophy.

But although he’s been coy on his relationship status, it’s now being reported that Bobby has been in one for some time.

The actor is said to be dating Boadecia Evans, who he’s been ‘secretly seeing for months’.

‘Bobby has been secretly dating Boadecia for ages. She’s been supporting him from behind the scenes but will be going to Blackpool this weekend to cheer him on,’ a source has said.

‘She doesn’t particularly want to be in the public eye but Bobby means a lot to her and they are best friends over anything else.

“She is so proud of him and can’t wait to watch her man this weekend,’ they added when speaking to The Sun.

It turns out Bobby has hinted at their romance for some time, regularly leaving sweet comments on her social media posts.

On one shot of her posing on some steps last month, he wrote ‘she’s a lady’, followed by a queen and a heart emoji.

All the way back in February, he liked a snap of her in a see-through lace outfit, leaving a string of mermaid and heart eye emojis in the comments.

She is also thought to be the mystery girl he was snapped kissing on the dancefloor of a NTA’s afterparty in October last year.

A eyewitness at the time said Bobby ‘looked like he was living his best life’.

The month before, in September 2022, Boadecia was seen picking him up in her car from the EastEnders set in Elstree.

His rumoured relationship comes after Bobby split from his ex, Liberty Love, in July last year.

The couple had been dating for 18 months but broke up after being ‘on and off’.

Last month Bobby accidently got himself into a bit of hot water live on air when spilling he mentioned to Strictly host Claudia Winkleman there was someone he ‘shares a bed with’.

He was waiting for results of his American Smooth with Dianne when Claudia, 51, asked him how he practices his moves.

He said: ‘I woke up one morning doing this [Bobby flung both arms into the air].

‘I woke myself up doing that. The week before, the person I shared a bed with, I turned and I said this is the…’

He then stopped when he realised he had given himself away, while Dianne and Claudia laughed at his discomfort.

Claudia then joked: ‘Who wants to pull on that string?’ With Bobby retorting, ‘anyway’, in a clearly desperate attempt to move on.

Metro.co.uk has contacted representatives for Bobby Brazier and Boadecia Evans for comment.

Strictly Come Dancing continues on Saturday at 6.40pm on BBC One.
