Nadiya Bychkova, a professional dancer on 'Strictly Come Dancing,' has humorously suggested that her daughter, Mila, age 10, now manages her romantic life. Bychkova shared this sentiment while on vacation with Mila in St. Tropez.
The mother and daughter were seen dancing on a surfboard to the song "Where Is My Husband?" by Raye, which features lyrics about desiring a wedding ring. Bychkova, 36, posted a video of the moment with the caption, "Your daughter has officially taken your love life into her own hands."
This playful remark comes after Bychkova was reportedly linked to West End star Ian McIntosh earlier in the year. Previously, she dated fellow professional dancer Kai Widdrington for two years before their reported split in 2024. Bychkova was also previously married to Russian dancer Sergey Konovaltsev and was engaged to Slovenian footballer Matija Škarabot, with whom she shares Mila. They separated in 2022.
Bychkova, who is Ukrainian, was notably absent from the lineup of 'Strictly Come Dancing' professionals in March, following a significant shake-up of the show. She has since indicated that she is in discussions with BBC producers about a potential return to the series, possibly in a choreography role. She expressed enthusiasm for choreographing pro numbers, stating her passion for creating and telling stories through dance.
In addition to potential 'Strictly' involvement, reports suggest Bychkova is also in advanced talks to appear on the ITV show 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' This comes after she reportedly impressed ITV bosses, making her a top candidate for the upcoming season.
