Last night saw the return of Dancing With The Stars Ireland, with a whole bunch of new famous faces taking to the dancefloor!
From Johnny Ward to Peter Stringer, the men of the competition strutted their stuff fro the judges last night, with the ladies taking on their first dances next week.
The show went down as a big hit, with
But one of the most talked about moments of the night was the reunion of 2018 DWTS champions, and real-life couple Jake Carter and Karen Byrne.
The pzir lit up the dancefloor yet again, following their amazing win in last year’s competition – and fans took to social media to gush about the wonderful dance!

Jake, who is starring in The Olympia Panto, recently opened up to VIP Magazine about seeing his girlfriedn Karen take to the floor with her new partner, Darren Kennedy.
“No, I’ll be rooting for them,” Jake revealed.
“I want them to do the best they can. If they’re not working hard, I’ll be in there shouting at them as much as Karen is! I’ll be the annoying family member cheering them on.
“It’s making me a little bit jealous that I’m not actually doing it. It’s great though because in one way, I still am involved. I’m sure I’ll be asked to help her with different lifts and stuff so it’s great to be involved in that way as well.”
How great were Jake and Karen!?
