The dancer, who is in a happy relationship with former rugby star Simon Davidson, was recently heard opening up about her past love life for the first time
Karen Hauer was all smiles as she ditched the UK with her boyfriend Simon Davidson for a couple's break, after the dancer was heard opening up about her past love life for the first time.
The Strictly Come Dancing star is in a happy relationship with former rugby star Simon, having reportedly met through friends Gorka Marquez and Gemma Atkinson.
Fans may recall that back in February 2023, Karen went 'Instagram official' with her new man after speculation about their relationship began in December 2022.
At the time, Karen was said to have been seen leaving the Strictly 2023 final with the former sports star having split from her ex-husband Jordan Wyn-Jones after marrying just over a year earlier.
Taking to Instagram over the weekend, Karen shared a sweet smiling selfie of herself and Simon as they were seen sitting in their seats on the plane next to one another.
As she nuzzled into his shoulder, she told her social media followers: "Holiday time [palm tree emoji]. Just the two of us [hearts and sun emojis] @sidavidson9."
It comes after Karen was heart opening up about her past relationships in a very candid chat with Celebs Go Dating and Married at First Sight UK expert Paul C Brunson.
Appearing on his 'We Need to Talk' podcast, the professional dancer spoke about the sad breakdown of her marriage to fellow dancer and former Strictly star Kevin Clifton, as well as the difficulties she faced in her next marriage to Jordan.
Speaking of Kevin, she shared: "This one hurt because we belonged together. Do you know what I mean? It was like you wouldn't say each other's names without following the other person's name.
"It was one of these that we're like, 'What? What?' We built stuff together. I felt that he distanced himself from me, but I was probably doing the same because I felt if he didn't want me then, okay, I'll retreat. I'll give you your space. It was one of those that we're both not talking about it. So, I'm like, do you want a divorce? Do you want to split up? I don't know what I want to do..."
Speaking of her relationship with Simon now, the 43-year-old said: "I'm in a new relationship and it's my first proper relationship at 43 years old. He has a job. Tick. He takes care of himself. Tick. We have conversations about what we want, our values.
"I'm still a little bit messy, and the thing with me, what I'm navigating right now is learning when to accept when someone's telling me this is the way you should do it and now this is how you do it..."
