Real? While fans were quick to congratulate the dancer on his new romance, many were shocked to see the couple bathing in a pool of wine and were quick to comment.

They wrote: ‘Is that a bath full of wine??? my idea of ​​heaven!!!’; ‘Is that a bath full of wine?’; ‘I was just about to ask that’; ‘Wow, too many questions about a wine bath but not enough time x’; ‘So cute. But why is your wine glass filled with water and the bathtub filled with red wine??!”

The Signature Wine Experience is on offer at AIRE Ancient Baths London for £450 and claims to utilize the ‘antioxidant properties’ of Spain’s Ribera del Duero red grapes.

Layton previously hinted he was in a relationship, saying on Alan Carr’s Life’s a Beach podcast: “I have a man, you know, it’s new though, it’s just been a soft launch on Instagram.”

The star’s new romance comes as he continues to battle an onslaught of trolls from Strictly Come Dancing fans.

The West End star and his professional dance partner Nikita Kuzmin, 25, appeared on This Morning on Tuesday as they discussed the backlash.

Speaking to presenters Rochelle Humes and Craig Doyle, Nikita said the toll falls on Layton and he finds people’s lack of compassion ‘sad and unnecessary’.

Layton is often targeted by trolls due to his West End background with some claiming the celebrity is a ‘professional dancer’ and that he has an ‘unfair’ advantage.

Speaking about the hateful comments sent to him online, Layton said this morning: ‘It’s like, “Can’t you just dress like a man, please put on a suit!” and I’m like, “Girl, relax!”

The Strictly star, 29, showed off his man in a sweet post on Tuesday, but revealed he would keep his name and further details private.

Nikita was quick to defend Layton when he said, “We get a little defensive with our partners and sometimes see people saying things or saying things they shouldn’t.

‘Sometimes things happen to him too, and that is a personal side, I find it sad and unnecessary [the trolling]. At the end of the day we just want to make people happy, we just want to put on a show…’

Layton added, “I’m sure you know how it feels, you can have a thousand great messages and then only one [negative] and you say, “Urgh!” but in these moments I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… even Beyoncé has haters, so!’

Despite topping the leaderboard every week, the sparkling duo found themselves in the dreaded bottom two on Sunday night.

The pair were grateful that the judges saved them from elimination, but were sad to see fellow contestants Angela Scanlon and Carlos Gu go home.

While it may have shocked viewers, Nikita said he “felt” they would have to endure the dance competition after the negative reactions online.
