Katya Jones has shown that she is still friends with her ex-husband Neil Jones by celebrating his birthday with an adorable throwback snap. The Russian dancer was famously married to the fellow Strictly professional for six years before they called it quits in 2019. Neil has since become a father and got engaged to Love Island star Chyna Mills following their divorce. Katya and Neil have remained close friends since their split, as they continuously post about each other on social media and spend time hanging out together.
Taking to Instagram, Katya shared a young selfie of the pair and added the caption, "This photo comes out every year! Happy Birthday @mr_njonesofficial."
When they split up, the pair posted the statement in 2019: "After 11 years, we have made the mutual decision to separate. We will always love each other, just in a different way as friends.
"This will never change what a great team we make and we are really proud of everything we have achieved together. Our shared love of dance means we will keep working and dancing together as well as exploring individual projects. No matter what we do we will always support and respect each other."
Neil and Katya were married for six years but parted ways in 2019 after the kissing scandal involving comedian Seann Walsh. The couple insisted that the kiss wasn't to blame for their marriage's end.
