Gemma Atkinson has appeared to confirm her romance with Strictly Come Dancing’s Gorka Marquez.

The pair were thought to have become close when the actress was on the dancing competition, but have remained tight-lipped about whether they are in a relationship.

However, Atkinson has now posted a snap of the pair on a sunny holiday together on Instagram.
