"Dancing into Love: Strictly Come Dancing Couple Reveals Plans to Move In Together"

Love that blossoms on the dance floor is often the stuff of fairy tales, and for Tyler West and Molly Rainford, participants in the 2022 series of Strictly Come Dancing, that fairy tale is becoming a reality. The couple recently revealed in an interview with the Daily Mail that they are taking the plunge and moving in together.

Their journey began in the dance halls of Strictly Come Dancing, where Molly, 23, known for her role as intergalactic popstar Nova Jones on CBBC, was paired with dance professional Carlos Gu. Their chemistry propelled them to the final, where they showcased their dance prowess. Tyler, on the other hand, was paired with dancer Dianne Buswell, and the dance floor became the stage for these two love stories to intertwine.

It wasn't until the live tour last year that sparks flew, and their relationship transformed into something more significant. Since then, Tyler and Molly have been riding the waves of love, and now, they are taking the next big step by moving in together. Molly, sharing their excitement with MailOnline, mentioned, “We are good and going strong and are actually moving in together - we’re just going through, you know dining tables and sofas and all that kind of stuff, it’s exciting.”

Tyler, embracing Molly's newfound passion for interior design, humorously confessed, “Molly’s turned into a whole interior designer, so I’m just taking a complete back seat!” Their camaraderie and shared decisions on furniture and household items highlight the collaborative nature of their journey into cohabitation.

The roots of their romance were planted during the tour, as Molly revealed in an interview with Fabulous magazine last summer. Starting as good friends, their connection deepened as they spent more time together. Molly reflected on the evolving relationship, saying, “I suppose it developed towards the end of the tour because we’d spent so much time together, and we were really good friends.” The tour, filled with shared experiences and fun, laid the foundation for something more profound.

Tyler, making the bold move, asked Molly out on a date once the tour concluded. The couple initially kept their romance under wraps, even keeping it a secret from their fellow Strictly colleagues. However, as pictures of them looking blissfully in love surfaced in public, their relationship was officially confirmed. Molly confided in her Strictly pal Fleur East, while Tyler shared the news with pro dancer Kai Widdrington, whose response was a knowing, ‘We knew!’

Reflecting on the early days of their romance during the tour, Molly shared, “For a week we were sneaking around, but the whole group knew we liked each other anyway, so we thought: ‘What are we doing?’”

As Tyler West and Molly Rainford embark on this new chapter, their story is a testament to the magic that can happen when dance brings two hearts together. From the dazzling Strictly dance floor to the cozy confines of their new home, the couple continues to waltz through life hand in hand, creating a love story that goes beyond the glitter and glamour of the dance show.
