Strictly star Karen Hauer has split from her husband Jordan Wyn-Jones.

Karen, 41 – Strictly’s longest-serving professional dancer – wed Jordan in June last year. But she attended last week’s Pride of Britain Awards without her wedding ring.

A source said: “Karen and Jordan have had a tough time in the past few months and decided to split. It’s obviously very sad for both of them. But there’s no ill-will whatsoever. The split is amicable, and they wish each other the best.”

Karen – who last week scored the first 10 of the series with partner Eddie Kadi – was previously married for three years to fellow Strictly pro Kevin Clifton. They divorced in 2018.

Before that she had a nine-year marriage to Matthew Hauer, but they split in 2009 – the same year that they auditioned together on US reality show So You Think You Can Dance. She wed Jordan last year in a lavish ceremony at Chewton Glen in Hampshire, telling Hello magazine that the experience had been “a fairytale”.

But in August she told how they had counselling, saying: “Communication is massive, but learning how to communicate… we get outside help. It’s seeing each other’s vulnerable side, and understanding.” A spokesman for Karen declined to comment.
