Retired boxer Joe Calzaghe has announced that his four-year romance with Strictly Come Dancing professional Kristina Rihanoff is over.

The couple formed a relationship not long after they were paired together in 2009 for the BBC reality dancing series.

"Kristina and I have had several terrific years together," Calzaghe told The Sun. "She is a wonderful woman but we have mutually and amicably decided to go our separate ways."

The couple have stated that their busy schedules are behind the split.
