‘Furious’: Kelvin is said to be ‘furious’ his ‘honour is being questioned’ after he was spotted having a 3.30am nightcap with the professional dancer, 29, over the weekend (pictured in January)
A source told MailOnline: ‘Naturally Liz wasn’t happy after finding out Kelvin had been out late drinking with the Strictly lot.
‘It wasn’t easy for her to see him still out at 3:35am, while she’s at home looking after their two young children. Any woman would be upset if they were in the same situation.
‘In the heat of the moment she unfollowed him on Instagram, it was just a shock for her to see him out so late.’
‘But now she’s had the chance to speak to Kelvin face-to-face after he came home and they’re spending today together, she feels silly for unfollowing him and admits she acted on impulse.’
