It comes after Jamie revealed he won’t be going on a booze and sex ban during his stint on the new series of Strictly Come Dancing.

The soap star is competing on the BBC show’s 20th series and has admitted there’s no need to cut out alcohol and sex and stick to a healthy regime.

‘No booze ban for me. I’ve never drunk ever in my life and no one loves me, so I can’t do a sex ban! No bans for me, just loads of food,’ he told MailOnline ahead of this weekend’s launch show.

MailOnline has contacted Jamie’s representatives for comment. 

Last week, Jamie broke his silence on the Strictly Come Dancing curse after his chemistry with pro partner Michelle sparked speculation. 

For years, the BBC show has sparked many an off-screen romance between celebrities and their professional partners, with some even leaving their spouses to pursue these relationships – prompting the name the ‘Strictly curse’.

But the EastEnders actor laughed off the hearsay, admitting the pair are ‘more like siblings’.

Speaking to The Sun, Jamie said: ‘Honestly, it’s hilarious that people think we’re getting jiggy!’

‘I really don’t know where that comes from, but I think everyone kind of just pre-empts the Strictly curse.’

Meanwhile, Michelle is in a relationship with her boyfriend Simone Arena, who is a Dancing With The Stars champion

The actor continued: ‘You definitely ain’t got no worries about Michelle – she’s like a sister, mum and auntie all rolled into one. I’m being mothered! We’ve got sibling chemistry.’

Shortly before appearing on the show, Jamie sparked romance rumours with his EastEnders co-star Jazzy Phoenix.

Meanwhile, Michelle is in a relationship with her boyfriend Simone Arena, who is a Dancing With The Stars champion.
