BOBBY Brazier has split from his girlfriend Liberty Love as the couple become another tale of the curse of Strictly Come Dancing, Politicalite can reveal.
The 20-year-old actor and Liberty have decided to call time on their romance after 18 months together.
A source told Politicalite: “She and Bobby had been on and off but now it seems that it’s over for good.”
The couple’s romance is thought to have been on and off throughout their time together as the son of Big Brother star Jade Goody won a National Television Award earlier this month.
Bobby – who plays Freddie Slater on smash-hit BBC1 soap EastEnders – and Liberty actually unfollowed each other on social media at one stage last year, before they decided to rekindle their romance.
Bobby is now looking forward to competing on the new series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ and the actor is determined to make the most of the opportunity.
He told Politicalite: “My boss mentioned that he’d been in talks with ‘Strictly’ and it was time to put someone forward, so he was checking how the storylines would work around the time, and I just said to him, ‘Let me do it. Please, please let me do it. You won’t regret it.’ And by his grace, I’m now doing it, and I’m really, really, really, really, really, really, really grateful.”
Bobby has always loved dancing and he’s determined to impress the judges and the TV viewers.
He said: “In a sense, my whole life has been a kind of training towards this moment. I’m always dancing around the house and what not.”
Asked if he’s actually any good at dancing, Bobby replied: “People do actually say that I’ve got a little bit of rhythm.
“People can tell that I’m having a good time while I’m doing it. When you see someone doing something they enjoy, it’s attractive. Maybe I’m dancing in a mad, crazy way, but just feeling the music.”
Strictly Come Dancing airs LIVE on Saturday nights on BBC1 – catch up on BBC iPlayer.
