Emma Barton boyfriend: The SHOCK Eastenders real life romance YOU might have missed

Competing on this year’s series of Strictly Come Dancing, Emma was partnered with veteran professional Anton Du Beke. And this weekend Emma and Anton pulled out all the stops for the Strictly final, finishing as runners-up.

Emma and Anton did their best to impress the judges for the last time, performing three different dances.

All couples performed a ‘Judge’s Pick’, which for Emma and Anton was their Charleston.

The pairs then danced a ‘Showdance’, with Emma and Anton performing to Irving Berlin tune Let Yourself Go.

Perry Fenwick, who plays Emma’s character’s on-screen ex-husband Billy Mitchell, even encouraged the young actor to chat Emma up.

Jamie said: “I remember walking over to her and saying ‘alright darlin’… wow you smell nice.

“It brought the house down and we still laugh about it now.”

However, Emma later quashed any rumours of a romance, stating he was like a “brother” to her.

In 2008, Emma Barton met Britain’s Got More Talent presenter, Stephen Mulhern.

The pair had been starring together in the pantomime, Snow White.

The two reportedly went on to have a relationship but sadly split a few years later.
