It comes as Strictly made a triumphant return to TV screens.
Fans were quick to hail Zara and Graziano ‘the hottest paring ever’ as the couple’s were revealed for the first time.
Viewers joked the Love Island star’s boyfriend Sam ‘must be sweating’ at home as they heaped praise on the ‘absolute fire’ partnership.
Zara and Graziano danced the Cha Cha Cha for their first performance, and the TV personality admitted her nerves before the show.
‘I think I’m probably the most nervous I’ve been in my life. I’m not a natural born performer, I’m not an extrovert, so this is the biggest challenge of my life,’ she said.
Graziano added: ‘It is going to exotic, Latin and is the Cha Cha Cha darling.’
Zara made history by becoming the first former Love Island contestant to win a place on Strictly – but insisted she won’t be drawing inspiration from any of her former cast mates when the show gets under way.
