The Strictly Come Dancing star, 29, is said to be secretly dating Chloe Wells, an executive ᴀssistant who hails from EsSєx, after meeting on a night out at a west London pub.
According to The Sun, they have kept their romance private as Kai struggled with the publicity surrounding his past relationship with Nadiya, but are now set to make their debut red-carpet appearance together.
And in a sign of how well things are progressing, the couple are reportedly planning to move in together soon.
A pal told the publication: ‘Chloe is a great girl and has absolutely no interest in the limelight; she just likes Kai for Kai. They have a real laugh together and although it’s early days, they’re planning on moving in together in the coming months.
‘Kai found it very damaging to his mental health having his past relationship with Nadiya played out in public, and thankfully Chloe has no interest at all in being in the spotlight. She also isn’t a Strictly superfan which makes things easier.
‘They’re super-content, and Kai attributes a lot of his looking so well to being in a happier place in life thanks to her. They make a really cute couple.’
Representatives for Kai had no further comment when contacted by MailOnline.
MailOnline confirmed Kai had split from his Strictly co-star Nadiya after two years in June 2024, at the end of their lucrative tour Behind the Magic.

The dancers reportedly ended their romance after ’emotionally drifting away from each other’ with sources claiming they were battling off-stage problems during their tour.
It was reported at the time that the pressure of being in each other’s space 24/7 eventually ‘took its toll’ on their relationship.
A friend of Kai and Nadiya told The Sun: ‘It’s heartbreaking. Kai and Nadiya seemed like the most perfect couple and have been so, so blissfully in love.
‘But the pressures of touring – being in each other’s space 24/7 and the stress of performing a sell-out show – eventually took its toll.
‘They had been drifting emotionally for a while, and things actually came to a head during the tour – ironically called Behind The Magic – which, obviously, was incredibly problematic.’
Kai and Nadiya made the mutual decision to quit ‘after a rough few weeks’ once their tour finished, the source added.
But it appeared the split was far from amicable, with the pair having to be kept far apart at the National Television Awards in September.
An onlooker told MailOnline at the time: ‘When the pair got inside the O2 they gave each other a very wide berth.

‘Organisers had ensured there would be no awkward camera sH๏τs by keeping the frosty pair apart from each other.
‘Angela Rippon was on Kai’s arm all night, and was keen to show her support after his recent demotion. When it came to accepting Strictly’s award, Kai was front of centre behind Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman but Nadiya was nowhere to be seen.
‘If this is what they are like at an awards bash, imagine what things are like in the rehearsal room.’
Nadiya later spoke out about their split at the Pride Of Britain Awards in October, where she admitted they are ‘not friends’.
However, the Ukrainian star insisted that she and Kai were still able to dance and work together on Strictly because she was a ‘professional’.

Speaking to The Mirror, Nadiya said: ‘We work together but we are not friends and that’s OK.
‘One thing I can tell you is that when you see me dancing with him it will be amazing because I’m a professional.’
The talented dancer originally confirmed their romance in 2022, during an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail Weekend magazine after months of speculation.
Nadiya confessed: ‘We’ve been seeing each other properly for a couple of months now. It’s early days and we’ve been rehearsing for the Strictly Professionals tour, so there’s been very little free time.
‘But we’re getting to know more and more about each other day by day. He’s kind and compᴀssionate and makes me laugh. I feel very relaxed with him.’
