Strictly pros Katya and Neil appeared happier than ever as they posed for photos at the event in complementing all black ensembles.

The Russian dancer, 29, donned a pair of wide-leg black trousers with a racy lace bodice.

Katya teamed the look with a plunging cape-inspired blazer and held onto a Louis Vuitton mini bag.

She accessorised her ensemble with a crystal-encrusted hairband and matching drop-earrings.

"Do they have meanings? YES so I thought I would make a post with more and more people wanting tattoos, not always for the right reason.

"Firstly I’m lucky because they are all created by @jamie_kam1 @fridaystattoohk and for me he is a real artist.

"I thought why don’t I mix art and special moments, people and beliefs I have in my life and the best way was with tattoos.

"Firstly if u r thinking about getting a tattoo do your homework, know everything about the artist and make sure the piece is designed for you with a meaning.

"I think I have had over 60hrs on the table max 8hrs on one day and yes it does hurt no matter what anyone says.

"My first tattoo was in 2009 which became over time the piece on my back, it symbolises an old Indian story.

"My next two tattoos were in 2012. 'Qui Audet Adipiscitur' which is Latin for Who dares Wins. I took many risks during my dancing career and I won.

"Then after this I proposed to @mrs_katjones and my left arm symbols her and to remember that day.

"2016 I added my next big piece on my right arm which is a quote by Joseph Chilton Pearce about the value of Creativity: 'To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong' with symbols of music, movement and an idea growing."

His post comes after Neil and Katya went on make-or-break trip to save their marriage after she kissed Seann Walsh last year.

Neil and Russian pro Katya jetted off the day after the December 15 Strictly Come Dancing final, won by Stacey Dooley.

A source said: “Those close to Neil and Katya have been saying this was a make-or-break holiday.

"Although they have both put on a brave face these past few months, it understandably caused massive issues when Katya was pictured snogging Seann.

"Neil really felt like the trust had gone and he wasn’t quite sure he knew who Katya was any more. They decided to go away for some time out of the spotlight so they could have some very frank conversations.

"Neil and Katya wanted to talk about how and if their relationship could move forward."
