Kevin Clifton is convinced that Stacey Dooley has fancied him for years before they met, and he may have just backed up his theory with solid proof.
The former Strictly Come Dancing pro, 37, made his relationship with Stacey, 33, public in April 2019.
The pair fell head over heels for each other during Stacey's stint on the hit BBC dance show when she got partnered up with Kevin.
But it seems as though she's had the hots for Kevin for a lot longer than we think.
An old tweet of Stacey's was unearthed this week that proved to be very interesting for Kevin to read - so much so, that he couldn't resist sharing it on Instagram.
Sharing the screenshot of the tweet with his 359k followers, surprised Kevin wrote: "So... Someone posted this on twitter!
"@sjdooley in 2013 tweeting about @bbcstrictly 2 new boys were announced that year Either we have just uncovered evidence that Stacey has fancied me for years.. Or... The other boy was... @aljazskorjanec."
Stacey's tweet, which was posted on September 7th 2013, read: "OMG! That new guy?!?!?!?!?!!!!!?!?!?! I likey! God I love strictly!" alongside a row of lovestruck emojis.
Stacey rushed to the comments section to tag Janette Manrara in her comment, who tied the knot with dancer Aljaž Škorjanec in 2017.
Stacey wrote: "@jmanrara is gonna kill me...."
Fans were left in hysterics after the exchange, as they too headed to the comments section.
Strictly pro dancer Katya Jones wrote: "This is brilliant."
While others mocked Kevin for his surprisingly impressive investigation skills.
One fan penned: "Previously on 'Kevin "Sherlock" Clifton' investigates."
Another wrote: "Love it!! It's things like this however that show your social media should probably be wiped clean after about three years so you can't get into too much trouble with a future significant other," alongside a row of laughing emojis.
"Ohhhhhhhh do tell stacey !" another curious fan penned.
Despite the fact the professional dancer has already been married three times, it seems as though Kevin has found his happily ever after with Stacey as the pair have been going from strength to strength.
Rumours of their close partnership circulated back in 2018, though the pair denied any romance was bubbling behind the scenes.
They later went on to win the Glitterball trophy, and after Strictly came to an explosive end, the championing duo finally revealed their romance
Stacey has previously spoken of how she and Kevin have chosen to keep their private life out of the spotlight.
Opening up to the Guardian about their relationship, Stacey said: "Kev and I have agreed not to go into too much detail about our private lives because you can't really indulge that and then ask for privacy.
"That's why we've turned down interviews that have offered us tens of thousands of pounds."
She went on to say: "What I am happy to say is Kev's amazing, I'm happy, life happens, I've got an amazing career, and I'm very lucky."
