Katya Jones reunites with Tony Adams amid Strictly chaos after her former partner reveals he’s ‘haunted’ by show
STRICTLY Come Dancing's Katya Jones reunited with former show partner Tony Adams for a country getaway at the weekend.
The friendly catch up came as another of Katya's ex Strictly partners, Seann Walsh, revealed his time on the programme haunts him six years later.
In one picture with Tony, Katya, 34, and the retired footballer, 57, beamed while sitting at a table with a personalised mug placed on top of it.
The reunion was part of a group get together at a cottage in rural Oxfordshire.
Giving an overview of the action, Katya wrote on Instagram: "Dancing in the kitchen, shopping, singing, cooking and lots of hugs."
And there was even a clip of some cute micro-pigs that have been named after Strictly favourites.

Katya added: "FYI - Kat the pig, Anton du Pig and Claudia Winklepig have grown a lot and are doing great!"
Tony's time on Strictly came to a premature end in 2022 when he was forced to withdraw through injury a week before the famed Blackpool show.
In all likelihood the 57-year-old would have been eliminated anyway as he had faced a dance off with TV and radio host Tyler West.
Katya and Tony's fond nods to the glitzy programme were at odds with comedian 41-year-old Seann's tainted memories.
He spiralled into depression and suffered panic attacks after a fling with Katya brought an end to his relationship with Rebecca Humphries.
The Strictly stars were caught kissing on a boozy night out during their time on the show and made countless headlines.
Speaking at the weekend, he said: “I do not dance. What it is more actually is when you turn up to any car park or something, and it says, ‘Strictly No Parking’. I still just go, ‘Arghh’, every time I see it.
“I can hear the word — like a dog hearing something — I can just hear the word strictly and I still go, ‘Arghh!’”
He says he mistakenly returned to performing before he was ready.
He told comedian Russell Howard on the Wonderbox podcast: “I went back too soon — that’s for sure. You’ve got to kind of let audiences, or the public, almost let them get over it. But I wanted to kind of fight it.
“I didn’t want this thing that was happening to my life to take away the only thing that I had.
“I would have looked unwell. I was extremely thin and gaunt. It was so difficult. The audiences didn’t know how to feel. They’d get up, they’d leave. Sometimes they’d tell me that they were appalled by me.”

Seann has since quit booze and went on to I’m A Celeb in 2022 to try to resurrect his image — finishing in fifth.
He is now a dad and in a relationship with dance teacher Grace Adderley, who he met in 2019.
