Strictly star Maisie Smith and singer Max George got cosy for an Instagram snap as they headed out in Blackpool for the day.
The couple, who addressed concerns over their 13-year age gap, enjoyed a stroll around Blackpool’s iconic amusement park and posted the selfie to commemorate their day out.
The pair huddled together, smiling at the camera as Max wrapped up an orange beanie while Maisie opted to pull her hair into a slicked back bun. The dancing duo wore matching sleeveless North Face puffer jackets.

Maisie was casted as Fran in the show directed by and co-choreographed by Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood.
Their off-duty day out comes after Max and Maisie hit back at “concerns” over their 13-year age gap.
The musician, 34, revealed the gap “never enters my mind” and that he “looks up to Maisie”.
In an exclusive interview with Hello! Magazine, Maisie admitted that she never noticed the age gap either, and insisted that people can “connect with who you connect with”.

She said: “People ask me, “Do you notice it?” and I never have. We’re so like-minded. I’ve got friends in their 30s and 40s. You connect with who you connect with.”
The pair met on the set of Strictly when they both competed in 2020.
Max opened up about the couple’s future plans, confirming that they were looking for places to live in London and Manchester.
“We live together now, but we’re constantly travelling around the country, with Maisie touring. We want to get a place together and have a base in London – and maybe somewhere in Manchester too,” he said.
