Countdown’s Rachel Riley ‘puts pin’ in romance with husband Pasha Kovalev: ‘We’ll get there again’

Countdown presenter Rachel Riley revealed that she and husband Pasha Kovalev simply don’t have time for cute date nights anymore.

Rachel Riley and husband Pasha Kovalev got married in 2019

The TV star, 37, and professional dancer Pasha, 43, met on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013 when they were partnered together, and wed in Las Vegas in 2019 before their first born daughter Maven was born.

In 2021, the couple welcomed baby girl Noa but have recently put all romantic rendezvous on hold.

‘All the romance and dates… we just kind of put a pin in it,’ she said.

‘We’re both quite patient and we know that once Noa is off the boob, we’ll get there again,’ she added to the Mirror.

Rachel started dating Pasha after splitting from her husband, fellow Oxford University student Jamie Gilbert, in 2013.

Speaking to the Sunday Times Magazine last year, the TV personality expressed her feelings about the idea that celebrities tend to fall in love with their professional partners, arguing that it wasn’t the right term for her experience.

Rachel teased: ‘Are you calling my babies a curse? That’s not right!’

‘If you have cracks, Strictly can expose them. It gave me the distance to make the break that was going to happen anyway.’

Ballroom and Latin pro Pasha quit Strictly back in 2019 after eight years on the BBC programme.
