Seann Walsh has been accused of enjoying a series of liaisons, meeting at pubs and hotels with Inbetweeners star Emily Atack during his five-year romance with ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries.

The disgraced Strictly Come Dancing star has hit the headlines this month after shocking images emerged of him and his Strictly professional partner Katya Jones snogging in the streets of London in what they later branded a one-off drunken mistake.

However it was then claimed that chemistry between the two had been heating up for weeks as they spent more and more hours together rehearsing, and his girlfriend Rebecca then dumped him publicly in a scathing Twitter statement.

Now however it has been claimed that in late 2016, Seann wooed Emily on a series of dates which led to Emily telling people she was in love with Seann.

Seann and Emily were really keen on each other. They were totally wrapped up in each others company, a source close to the actress alleged.

The pair are believed to have met on E4 panel show Virtually Famous in 2014 but the close pal told The Sun that although the picture that was released this week that showed that holding hands suggests they just met once thats really not the case.

She liked the way he was funny and quite macho — a mans man. He obviously made her laugh but also treated her well and ­lavished her with her gifts and flowers, the source added.

Seanns personal life is under a microscope following the pictures and video showing him passionately kissing professional dancer Katya on his then-girlfriends birthday.

Rebecca swiftly dumped the stand-up star, claiming he called her a psycho for suggesting anything inappropriate was happening between him and Katya and accusing him of lying and controlling behaviour.

Despite the scandal, Seann and Katya returned to Strictly this weekend, dancing the decidely unsexy Charleston to Lunchmoney Lewiss Bills, but after their performance – and after the cameras stopped rolling – Seann reportedly joked that at least he was more famous now.

A source told Metro.co.uk that he was asked if hed had a good week and in response, he said: When I first joined the show, the papers were asking who I was. Well they know now!
