Is Amy Dating Or Married?
The Strictly Come Dancing star does have a partner, who was a fellow dancer on the show. He is none other than Ben Jones. The two first met and got together since 2012. But, it was not until the New Year’s Eve of 2018 that the duo got engaged.
While proposing, Ben gave Amy a beautiful round cut diamond ring in a prong setting and with a platinum ring. The ring, of course, matched the elegance of the Strictly Come dancer.

Is Amy Victim Of Strictly Curse?
Amy also added the name of her Strictly Come Dancing partner Karim Zeroual at her big day. Some fans were concerned as they believed that the “Strictly Curse” has hit the two partners. (Strictly curse is a term created due to at least one couple in the show’s every season breaking up with their significant other and dating their dance partners instead.)

But, luckily for Amy and Karim, Karim said he is very busy learning the waltz to focus on such things as a curse. Amy, on the other hand, considered Karim as her brother, so there is no chance of the infamous curse getting to the dance partners.
