Katya Jones love life

When asked about any life changes she was looking to make in the next year, Katya’s reply was clear. “Absolutely NOTHING!” she wrote.

“I love my life, I love people that I choose to be in it,” Katya continued. “I have managed to create a great work/life balance for the last few years.”

She added: “I love the freedom that it gives me, and I adore my job. And I am aware that it is a privilege to be able to say that. So I feel extremely grateful.”

Katya’s last romance was reportedly with property mogul William Abbotts. They were spotted together in July last year but reportedly parted ways by October.

A close source informed The Sun that the split was due to her Strictly Come Dancing commitments. They shared: “The union ran its course. Katya is single and focusing on the dance competition. She knows she has a strong chance of making it to the final this year. She doesn’t want any distractions.”
