Strictly Come Dancing contestant Alex Scott has been luckier than many of the show's hopefuls, as she's had the chance to dance with two professional dancers.
When her dance partner Neil Jones was injured during training at the end of October, Alex was temporarily paired up with Kevin Clifton while Neil recovered – and she achieved some high scores for her two routines with Kevin.
Neil returned to the ballroom last night (November 9) to dance with Alex once again, having received the all-clear from physiotherapists, but tabloid rumours have suggested that Alex wasn't happy to have her original partner back.
However Alex has been quick to shut down reports that she was "fuming" about dancing with Neil again, taking to Twitter to confirm that "this is not the case at all".
"Just woke up to this news," she wrote. "Contrary to these reports and trying to get a headline this is not the case at all ha.
"I think you can see from the joy on our face last night as we danced our Jive #teamred is very happy to back together @Mr_NJones."
She also added that she feels very lucky to have had the chance to dance with two partners, saying: "Got to admit it though, I do feel like the luckiest girl alive.
"Not everyone gets to dance with two amazing people on @bbcstrictly who would ever want to complain about that,lol @keviclifton is part of #teamred."

Neil also rubbished the reports on Twitter, replying to Alex's tweet with: "Yep I started laughing when I read it this morning. As we all know happiness and positivity doesn’t make headlines...
"Anyway who cares, we both had a great time and enjoyed every moment of that jive and that's all that matters #teamred."
The couple scored 31 points on Saturday's live show for their Jive to Chubby Checker's 'Let's Twist Again', and they later shared identical photos of themselves in costume to Instagram and revealed how much they'd enjoyed performing together again.
"What a week, what a night and I'm out here having the time of my life," Alex captioned her photo. "Welcome back to the dance floor @mr_njonesofficial and @keviclifton all the work you did for us this week that nobody will see.. WOW."
On his own post, Neil added: "Wow it's great to be back but even better to just have fun on the dance floor with @alexscott2."
The couple did receive one rather awkward comment during the judges' feedback on their dance last night, however, as judge Motsi Mabuse referred to Alex's time with Kevin as "an affair".
"Well, I feel like we've seen a new couple that we knew but then somebody had an affair and now the light is back on," she said.
Strictly Come Dancing continues tonight at 7.15pm (November 10) on BBC One.
