‘Where have all the good men like this gone?? P.S. They are his real teeth, and this is not my real fringe.’
Katya sported a dramatic fringe in the photo while she also wore a white shawl with a silver brooch.
The Russian beauty parted ways with her husband Neil Jones in August 2019 after she was photographed kissing her Strictly partner Seann Walsh the year before.
Speaking ahead of the current series, the dancer insisted she and Neil are still ‘best friends,’ and have kept in touch despite ending their marriage last year.

It comes after Neil said he and Katya are in ‘no rush’ to get divorced as he insisted their split had ‘nothing to do’ with her scandalous kiss with comedian Seann.
Katya told The Mirror: ‘We have fun all the time. We share our dog. We FaceTime all the time. He’s showing me all there his new toys and projects and things like that. We’re really best friends.
‘It was our birthdays in May and we both made lovely videos for each other etc. So it’s nice. We love dancing together so I can’t wait to get back dancing.’
In June, British dancer Neil spoke about his split from Katya for the first time, revealing they are yet to begin divorce proceedings.

Neil told The Sun: ‘We’re still not divorced. It’s a thing we’re trying to sort out but we haven’t started the process yet.
‘A lot of the places are not working because of the coronavirus. Everything is on hold. But we’re not in any rush.’
Explaining their decision to split, Neil admitted that they had ‘found that they’d grown apart’ before acknowledging they were ‘lucky’ to not have kids.
The dancer insisted: ‘It had nothing to do with what happened [with Seann].’
For the first time since their split, Neil touched on the Seann Walsh kiss scandal which pushed his marriage to Katya into the limelight.

He said: ‘For me it’s something that happened in the past. We spoke about everything back then,’ before confirming that he and his ex are still friends.
Seann and Katya faced a huge backlash after pictures surfaced of the pair locking lips on their booze-fuelled night out in October 2018.
At the time, the comedian was dating Rebecca Humphries and she was still happily married to now-estranged husband Neil.
Shortly after the scandal, Seann issued an apology in which he blamed his actions on alcohol, branding it a ‘one-off’ and a ‘mistake’.
The dance expert echoed the sentiments, claiming she was sorry for the ‘hurt’ she had caused by her actions, but insisted her marriage to Neil was ‘absolutely fine’.
