Strictly pair Molly Rainford and Tyler West spotted holding hands and heading to hotel in early hours

STRICTLY pair Molly Rainford and Tyler West have been spotted holding hands and heading back to a hotel in the early hours.

The photos mark the first time they have been seen in public as a couple.

The duo, who were contestants last year, had earlier been partying at a nightclub together.

They held hands and cosied-up as they strolled back to their hotel in Belfast, while other celebs on Strictly’s live tour stayed out longer to carry on dancing.

A source said: “Molly and Tyler couldn’t keep their hands off each other all evening.

“Their relationship has reached new levels since the show — as this very public display of affection clearly indicates.

“Everyone can see how well they get on and those close to them can see things continuing to blossom in the future.”

Singer Molly, 22, left gay club Boombox with Kiss FM DJ Tyler, 26, around 2am on Thursday.

Other Strictly stars like Ellie ­Simmonds and Fleur East stayed until it closed an hour later — as did pro dancers Neil Jones, Kai Widdrington and Nikita Kuzmin.

They then went back to five-star hotel The Merchant where they were staying for the Strictly Come Dancing Live Arena Tour.

Molly and Tyler are said to have grown “inseparable” during the nationwide shows.

The Celeb Report on Sunday revealed last week Tyler asked dance pros Kai and Neil for advice about his next move with Molly.

Earlier on in their final night in Northern Ireland, the lovebirds had enjoyed X Factor singer Fleur, 35, treating pub drinkers to a rendition of Robbie Williams classic Angels.

The tour group flew to Glasgow, Scotland, the following morning for the final leg of the tour.

Tyler was forced to miss Friday night’s show due to illness, but returned to the stage last night. The tour is set to conclude tonight.
