‘It all seems very awkward!’ Vanessa Bauer hit by claims she is in a ‘love triangle’ with skate partner Joe-Warren Plant and her personal trainer ex

Vanessa Bauer is reportedly in a ‘love triangle’ with her newly-single skate partner Joe-Warren Plant and her personal trainer ex Rory McCall.

The professional skater, 24, was at the centre of romance speculation after Joe-Warren, 18, split from his ex-girlfriend weeks after they began training together.

But a source revealed to the Sun that Vanessa has since been linked to her former flame Rory and is believed to have spent the Christmas break with him in London.  

Claims: Vanessa Bauer is reportedly in a ‘love triangle’ with her newly-single skate partner Joe-Warren Plant and her personal trainer ex Rory McCall (pictured together in 2019)

The insider claimed: ‘Obviously it’s only a few weeks ago that Joe-Warren was splitting up from his girlfriend and everyone was talking about his closeness to Vanessa — and now she’s quietly meeting a new guy.

‘Joe has been staying at his mum’s place in Blackpool after moving out but of course he still has training commitments because the show will be starting very soon.

‘Vanessa and Joe are playing down suggestions of romance, but his girlfriend was clearly uncomfortable with their relationship and now she’s already dating someone else in secret. It all just seems very awkward.’

MailOnline have contacted representatives for comment. 

Joe recently moved out of the home he shared with ex-girlfriend of three years Nicole Hadlow, 24, and returned to his mother’s house in Blackpool. 

Insiders alleged lash technician Nicole was not impressed with the time Joe was spending training and deleted snaps of the pair from Instagram.

A source said at the time: ‘Nicole felt sidelined and he’s done little to put her mind at ease.’

Vanessa and Rory first went Instagram official in 2019 months after her split from ex-boyfriend Louis Nathaniel. However it appears their romance was short-lived and thinks soon fizzled out.

It seems judging by reports the former couple have rekindled their spark. 

Vanessa has previously been linked to two high-profile celebrity splits after dancing with the male counterparts on the ITV show.

In January 2019, Vanessa sparked controversy with her dance partner Wes Nelson, whose then-girlfriend Megan Barton Hanson publicly slammed the ice skater for her behaviour with the Love Island hunk.

Rumours of a fling later emerged and Megan and Wes split.

Vanessa remained defiant, as she hit back at the claims, posting on Instagram at the time that rumours of a fling with Wes are ‘lies’.

She also denied any involvement in her former skate partner Jake Quickenden’s split from his ex Danielle Fogarty, who is now expecting a baby with Ross Worswick.
