After months of keeping their new romance underwraps, Strictly Come Dancing's Karen Clifton made her first public appearance with boyfriend David Webb earlier this week. The pair then took things to the next level on Thursday, by sharing their first Valentine's Day selfie together. David uploaded the adorable snap of the pair onto his Instagram Stories, along with the simple caption: "LOVE." Karen looked blissfully happy in the photo, as she closed her eyes while laughing and gently stroking the side of David's face. Karen then shared a short video of the steak and wine meal that the couple were enjoying together. She adorned the clip with pink love hearts after uploading it to her own Instagram Stories.

Meanwhile, Karen's ex-husband Kevin Clifton spent Valentine's Day doing what he loves most - performing on stage as Stacee Jaxx in the stage production Rock of Ages. His sister Joanne - a fellow Strictly alumni - recently opened up about how being on stage is making Kevin 'happier'. She said: "He [Kevin] said he saw the path that I took when I left Strictly and saw how happy I was on the stage and said he wants to feel that happiness." Joanne added: "He saw how happy I was and was like, 'Oh I want to be that happy too!'"
