Strictly Come Dancing star Maisie Smith has spoken out after rumours she has become more than friends with her BBC co-star HRVY.
Maisie, 19, was spotted flirting up a storm with pop star HRVY, 21, in the comments section of one of his racy Instagram snaps.
Speaking frankly about their blossoming bond, Maisie, who plays Tiffany Butcher in EastEnders, admitted she does think HRVY is attractive.
However, trying to play down rumours, the Strictly Come Dancing starlet added she doesn’t have enough time to get to know him properly due to training.
Maisie said: “He is a beautiful-looking guy.
“But I have only seen him for a couple of hours a week so I am still enjoying getting to know him.”

She added to The Sun: “I don’t know what would happen in the future, but for now we are getting along really well as friends.”
Meanwhile, speaking to OK! mag, HRVY admitted he is also attracted to Maisie.
The online sensation said: “I’ve actually seen her the least out of everyone because she’s not been in any of my rehearsal spaces.
“But yeah, Maisie really is so lovely and beautiful – she’s a really good friend of mine and I think she’s an amazing dancer.

“Not a lot can happen between us because we have to be two metres apart, but I am a little excited to see how things blossom.”
The heartthrob previously gushed over Maisie when he saw her on the dance floor.
“I love Maisie, she’s a great girl and has got great banter.
“When I saw her in her blue dress last week, she looked incredible. I can’t wait to see her grow and look amazing every week.”
Last month Maisie was seen teasing HRVY via Instagram.
HRVY posted a black and white shirtless snap captioning the post: “Fun fact: the window blinds were open and a whole office floor in another building stood and clapped as I got undressed (2021 calendar out now)”
Seeing the upload, Maisie teased: “I think they were clapping coz they mistook u for 2009 JB. [Justin Bieber]”
Referencing one of Justin’s more romantic tracks, HRVY replied: “@maisiesmithofficial #onelesslonelygirl.”
Not stopping there, Maisie continued: “The Rock been real quiet since u posted this…”
