They have been together just under a year, and it is going on well between them. They had a lovely weekend together recently, and they are very happy with one another.

He then expressed that his sole focus is his only child Besty and also admitted that he has turned down work, including a lead role in a nationwide tour of Sunset Boulevard, to make sure he was there for his daughter, Besty.

Lee got married to Denise on Seychelles in 2009 and welcomed their first child together in 2010. The then-couple first met on the 2007 TV show 'Any Dream Will Do' where he was a contestant, and Denise was a judge.

Denise confirmed that they had called it quits in June 2013, six months after she was named the runner-up on Strictly's tenth series.
