Maura Higgins and Pete Wicks finally confirmed their romance on Monday night at the Pride Of Britain Awards afterparty.
The Love Island icon, 33, and Strictly star, 36, were seen sharing a sweet kiss in the Red Bar at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London as they partied into the early hours.
The couple, who were first linked back in August, have been keeping a low profile but during the star-studded event they shared a tender moment in the corner.
Maura was seen planting a kiss on Pete’s nose before the pair packed on the PDA and kissed on the lips.
The couple looked loved-up after fuelling romance rumours for months after they were spotted kissing outside the Broadwick Hotel in Soho in August.

The day before the pair locked lips in public, Pete showed off his impressive Strictly moves as he danced with Maura in a new TikTok video.
As Pete demonstrated his muscles by pulling Maura up by her leg in a daring move, she fell into his arms and the two stared into each other’s eyes. Maura captioned the clip: ‘A few concussions later…’
Pete and Maura were previously seen together enjoying a night out at The Ship in Wandsworth alongside his Strictly friends.
An onlooker exclusively told MailOnline that the pair were inseparable, whispering in each other’s ears and even interlocking legs as they enjoyed a drink alongside Wynne Evans, Tom Dean and Jamie Borthwick.
The eyewitness shared: ‘They were all over each other, I was surprised to see them looking so close because I thought he had real chemistry with Jowita.
‘At one point they were basically straddling each other and didn’t seem to care at all that people could see them.
‘You’d think Pete would be more concerned about Tom given he’d just been given the boot on Strictly but he only had eyes for Maura all night!’
MailOnline has contacted Maura and Pete’s representatives for comment.

Maura broke her silence on the Pete romance rumours last month as she supported him and his best friend Sam Thompson (pictured) in a hilarious T-shirt at their podcast show
Maura has also shown her support to Pete as she attended his Staying Relevant podcast tour.
The model donned a personalised T-shirt showing a picture of the pair kissing outside the hotel and added the words, ‘We can’t be friends’ written in capital letters across the front of her chest.
She posed with an arm around Pete’s best friend Sam Thompson in the snap, which she captioned ”Hilarious night…. you smashed it @samthompson @stayingrelevantpodcast.’
Last year, the pair were filmed getting cosy at Grosvenor House in London.
In the clip, which was recorded in October 2023, Maura and Pete cosied up together in the corner of a room, seemingly taking selfies on Maura’s phone.
They were spotted gazing into each others eyes during what looked like a deep conversation, with Maura flashing a huge smile at the reality star as he waved his arms around during the chat.
Their encounter happened a year before Maura, who split from American stuntman boyfriend Bobby Holland Hanton earlier this year, wrapped her arms around Pete’s neck and kissed him during their recent romantic luncheon together.
