Alex Scott has said she does not mind comparisons between her Strictly Come Dancing partnership with Neil Jones and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
The professional couple joked about becoming royal lookalikes and said they may even perform a dance parody telling the story of Britain's Prince Harry and his romance with former Suits star Meghan Markle.
During a segment of Strictly's spin-off show, It Takes Two, host Rylan Clark-Neal touched on the subject when he said: "A lot of people on social media have picked up on a few things. I don't know if you've heard any rumours about anything but people have been saying a few things about you two."
The 30-year-old presenter then began to read out tweets, with one stating: "When Alex Scott and Neil Jones dance on Strictly my three-year-old daughter points at the TV and says: 'Look mummy, it's Harry and Meghan."'
A second said: "Waiting for Alex and Neil to do a Meghan Markle/Prince Harry dance parody."
Clark-Neal then said: "Can we maybe get this working?"
A smiling Jones, replied: "Maybe that is going to happen," while Scott added: "Yeah, I don't mind it. She's beautiful... and he's alright," prompting laughter in the studio.
