It may have been a rocky end to 2018 for Strictly's Neil Jones and Katya, but the pair were determined to start 2019 how they meant to go on.

The couple reportedly took a make-or-break trip to Cambodia in a bid to save their marriage after Katya was snappedkissing her Strictly dance partner Seann Walsh on a night out in October.

The pair, who have been married since 2013, are said to have traveled to Asia days before their current break in Russia, because 'Neil felt the trust was gone'.

A source told The Sun, "Those close to Neil and Katya have been saying this was a make-or-break holiday.

"Neil really felt like the trust had gone and he wasn’t quite sure he knew who Katya was any more. They decided to go away for some time out of the spotlight so they could have some very frank conversations.

"Katya begged for forgiveness and promised it would never happen again - while Neil agreed to move towards getting the trust back and putting it both behind them."

The trip seems to have worked wonders, with the duo appearing happier than ever in a series of Instagram snaps around St. Petersburg as they enjoy another holiday in Russia.

In one, Katya is leaning on Neil's shoulder with their wedding rings clearly visible.

Neil wrote, "Wow it’s cold here in Russia but I do love a bit of skating, I only wish I could dance on ice as well but as a young boy after watching the mighty ducks movie.

"I fell in love with the ice but everyone stopped me saying what if you break your legs. Now I’m a big boy and I can do what I want."

Katya and Neil's marriage was thrown into turmoil after the kiss with Seann, while he also suffered the breakdown of his relationship with girlfriend of five years Rebecca Humphries.

Fortunately the pair won't need to come into contact again soon, as Seann was axed from the Strictly tour.
