Strictly Come Dancing star Kristina Rihanoff was recently spotted for the first time since the sudden announcement that she and former flame Ben Cohen have decided to split
Kristina Rihanoff has been seen out and about after splitting from Ben Cohen.
The former Strictly Come Dancing star was in a long term relationship with the rugby legend. Their split was announced on 7 March and Kristina was recently spotted for the first time since the news.
Rihanoff wore an all-black ensemble with matching waist length coat, trousers, trainers and tote bag. She paired the look with black sunglasses and held an iPad and keys in her hand.
The Strictly star looked as glamorous as ever despite the sad news, with her blonde locks worn in poker straight layers. Kristina accessorised with large silver earrings and appeared to wear eye makeup to accentuate her features.
Rihanoff met Ben on Strictly 12 years ago and sources told The Sun that the couple reportedly faced financial difficulties before their split. Both Kristina and Ben have launched their own businesses, which reportedly impacted their finances.
Back in 2023, Ben told Hello! Magazine: “Over the last nine years we’ve been through the wringer. To support each other through difficult times in business is the ultimate test in a relationship.”
“I’ve watched her flourish, from her becoming a mum to growing as a businesswoman, and it has strengthened our bond.”
Kristina is best known for performing on Strictly Come Dancing and has competed as a professional since 2008. She was previously partnered with John Sergeant, Joe Calzaghe, Jason Donovan and Colin Salmon as well as her former flame Ben Cohen.
Cohen is a former rugby player and was a member of the England team that won the Rugby World Cup back in 2003. His main position was as winger before he retired in 2011.
