Matt and Flavia in the last tango
STRICTLY Come Dancing hunk Matt Di Angelo has split from dance partner Flavia Cacace, The Sun can reveal.
The 21-year-old former EastEnders star had been tangoing with Flavia, 28, since they met on the set of the BBC1 hit last autumn.
But he has now been spotted comforting singer Michelle Heaton, 27, who recently separated from her hubby of 19 months, Andy Scott-Lee, 28. Pals Matt and Michelle have been seen together at trendy London cocktail bar Mahiki.
Matt and Flavia’s romance caused ructions on the Strictly set as Flavia had been dating professional dance partner and Strictly star Vincent Simone, 29, for 11 years.
Matt and Flavia’s chemistry took them all the way to the show finals, although they eventually lost to Alesha Dixon, 29, and her partner Matthew Cutler, 34.
A source said last night: “It’s a huge shock to everyone and they are both devastated it’s over.
“Because they met on the set of Strictly their relationship got very intense very quickly.
“They were spending every day together and living in each other’s pockets. They became incredibly close.”
The magic continued for the pair while they competed together in the Strictly Come Dancing tour in January and February this year.
But since the show ended Flavia has been back dancing in the arms of Vincent, straining her relationship with Matt.
The insider added: “Everything was OK while they were dancing together but after Flavia started working with Vincent again things got a bit awkward.”
Aides of Matt and Michelle refused to comment last night.
finally - robbie is single again
Robbie Williams has split from his girlfriend Ayda Field, reports the Daily Mail.
Field, an aspiring actress, was reportedly upset by Williams's reluctance to embrace the Hollywood lifestyle.
A source close to the pair claimed that Williams preferred to stay at home and eat junk food instead of partying.
"Ayda was attracted to Robbie as he is vastly different to the average Los Angeles guy she is accustomed to, but in the end this was exactly what ended their relationship. He is just too different," the source explained.
"Robbie's indifference about the Los Angeles scene annoyed her. He was content to stay in eat junk food and watch DVDs while Ayda was yearning for some glamorous nights out.
"Ayda is hungry to advance in her career and that means schmoozing the right people. But Robbie doesn't care about that."
Williams previously dated Nicole Appleton, Geri Halliwell and Rachel Hunter.

Angie Admitted To Maternity Hospital
Angelina Jolie has gone into the hospital in the south of France where she expects to give birth to twins.
A spokeswoman for the Lenval Hospital in Nice said the actress was fine and that everything was going well.
She said Angelina was admitted so she could be kept under surveillance, and not to give give birth immediately.
She said the actress' admittance to the hospital's maternity wing had been planned for some time.
Angelina, 33, and boyfriend Brad Pitt, 44, already have four children - adopted sons Maddox, six, and Pax, four, adopted daughter Zahara, three, and one biological child, two-year-old daughter Shiloh.
Earlier this month Angelina revealed she and Brad want to make sure their older children feel included after the babies are born.
"They're old enough to feel included to change diapers themselves, to feed bottles themselves, like if I pump into a bottle. We're trying to find ways where it can be a fun group thing," she said.

Carey's marriage 'on the rocks'
Mariah Carey's marriage to Nick Cannon is in trouble after just two months, reports claim.
The couple, who wed in April after a five-week romance, are said to be at loggerheads over the singer's controlling behaviour.
A source told OK!: "Nick is basically around to attend to her diva-ish ways. When they were in Hawaii where Mariah was filming the video for 'I'll Be Lovin' U', Nick dashed off to buy her gifts at Tiffany and Co. and Louis Vuitton to keep her happy."
The insider claimed that Carey is intent on controlling her new husband's hip-hop career, saying: "Nick had signed on to perform at a sweet 16 party before he and Mariah got married. But now Mariah needs to oversee and approve his career moves.
"There are no more silly small-time gigs. She wants him to do big venues and projects. She definitely wears the pants in the relationship."
Carey's representative has denied the reports.
