TROUBLED Strictly curse couple Ben Cohen and Kristina Rihanoff have rekindled their relationship.
Pals say the retired England rugby ace and ex-pro dancer are trying to work things out after a year which saw them split amid financial struggles.

We revealed they had broken up in March, six months after Ben said he was “fighting” to save his relationship and home.
But they were seen cosying up at a fashion event on Saturday night — with our exclusive pic showing her with her arm around him.
Rugby World Cup winner Ben, 47, and Russian Kristina, 48, attended a London awards ceremony, where one of his daughters was on the catwalk.
A source said: “They’ve decided to give things another go.
“They looked very much in love.”
The couple’s businesses, including a yoga firm, were hit by spiralling debts during Covid.
Ben told a court last September during her unsuccessful driving conviction appeal: “I fight not to lose everything — my cars and my house and my relationship.”
They put their five-bed home in Sywell, Northants, up for sale for £1.75million and both still lived there despite splitting. It is yet to sell.
Ben split from wife Abby after being paired with Kristina in 2013’s Strictly.
Kristina split from ex-boxer Joe Calzaghe, her 2009 dance partner, earlier that year.
