Flavia Cacace: Matt Di Angelo won my heart with red roses

Strictly Come Dancing stars have their love on hold

Flavia Cacace says she'd already fallen out of love with Vincent Simone when she started to cha-cha with Matt Di Angelo.

'Dancing with Matt made my heart flutter and something clicked inside me,' she admits.

'I know Vincent blames Matt for us breaking up. But it's not Matt's fault. It's my fault for falling out of love with Vincent.

'I'm so sorry for all the pain it has caused.'

Matt, 20, won Flavia's heart by sending her red roses - with the message 'Good luck, Mela'.

'It's Italian for apple,' she explains. 'I'd told him that when I was a baby my mum called me Mela, because she felt my head was small like an apple.'

Dancing with Matt made Flavia feel sexy again. The EastEnders star accidently touched her boobs during a dance but she says nothing has happened between them - yet.

'I didn't even kiss him,' she explains.

'On Christmas Day I spoke to Matt on the phone. And on New Year's Eve Matt rang me. We can't start dating now because we've got the national Strictly tour and I'm going to be dancing with Matt and Vincent.'

Matt is clearly besotted.

'I love her little pixie ears, her transfixing smile. And that body,' he says. 'I want Flavia to be my girlfriend and I think she wants to be with me, too.'
