Strictly’s Neil Jones ‘believes dating ex Luisa Eusse was the worst mistake’

Strictly’s Neil Jones has reportedly told his pals that being linked to his ex-girlfriend Luisa Eusse is the ‘worst mistake’.

The professional dancer, 38, is thought to be ’embarrassed’ and ‘mortified’ by the Colombian dancer’s recent behaviour, reports The Sun.

It comes after Luisa took a brutal swipe at her ex and furiously hit back at claims she’s being ‘investigated by immigration’ in a bizarre Instagram Live.

A friend told the publication: ‘Neil’s friends and those who care for him were pleased when he cooled his relationship with Luisa as she was becoming a nightmare.

‘He was mortified by her antics recently and said being linked to her was the worst mistake he’s made.’

They added that Neil was ’embarrassed’ to be linked to Luisa, who he split from in December after around six months of dating, and is now focussing on his career.

While Neil’s spokeswoman said: ‘Neil is happy with his decision and is busy focussing on himself and some exciting work projects. He wishes Luisa all the best.’

MailOnline has contacted Neil’s representative for a comment.

It comes after Luisa hit back at claims she’s being ‘investigated by immigration’ in a bizarre Instagram Live on Monday.

She was also quick to take a swipe at the pro by claiming she ‘didn’t need to be with famous people’ as she downed multiple glasses of wine during the hour-long stream.

Luisa hit back at reports that she’s being hunted down by officials by insisting she’s living in the UK under a student visa to study a Masters degree, after her so-called ‘spouse visa’ expired when she and former partner Hanna Wants split. 

Addressing the camera Luisa said: ‘I speak English, they treat me like stupid… believe me I am not just a pretty face. 

‘It’s not hard for me you know, I don’t give a f**k what they say because if you know the truth, and if my family know the truth, and my friends know the truth, I don’t have to come out every single time.

‘I want to remind everyone of that f*****g name. i don’t need to be with famous people, TV people or DJ people. I don’t need anything from no one because all my dreams are coming from me.’ 

She added that she moved to the UK with her fiancée last year, but she wasn’t able to return to Colombia due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

‘I come to UK to make my dreams real and I come through all this s**t, in Colombia you don’t have all these opportunities, man. It’s [Colombia] beautiful but we don’t have a lot of opportunities there, they don’t appreciate your art. 

‘Me and my sister working really hard, working every day for a lot of videos, dancing all the time. For us it’s not enough, so we decide to go to UK. You know.

‘I try to be myself all the time, so I come to this country with fiancee, that’s true, the only thing that’s true, ‘cos I fell in love with a girl in the last year… 

‘Your visa ends from January to August, these are new rules. So basically, my visa end on 13 August… and basically I say OK, I go back to Colombia, Colombia was closed since the pandemic. 

‘Border was closed, anyway, they closed the borders since October or November, August I come back to Colombia. 

‘So what I have to do, if you come back to country [during] coronavirus, all you have to do apply for new visa, change status of your visa, is what they say.’

Luisa added she applied for another student visa so she could stay in the UK and study a Master’s degree, before showing a letter as evidence. 

‘So basically government say you have to apply for another visa and change your status, it’s what I did, I apply for another visa, change for student visa to study English to perfect my English… I am a f****g b***h. I want to study a master here in UK… so I can start my Master.’

‘I am from Colombia, no one f***s with Colombians believe me, no one will f**k with Colombia… for the past six months when they say something stupid about me, yeah forget that s**t, forget that s**t.’

Luisa added she travelled to the UK so she could give her daughter the ‘best things’ and declared: ‘You’re not going to tell me I’m not a good mother, simple as that s**t. She’s the most beautiful lil’ kid in the world.’ 

Luisa brazenly added she was heading out to a party after the stream, sparking a wave of backlash from fans watching as England was plunged into another wave of lockdown.

She said: ‘You’re just jealous cos I don’t say ”yo b***h wanna come party with me”, just jealous, no worries babe… no worries.

‘I don’t say sorry for anything, no man I am not sorry, going to party with my friends, I don’t want to say sorry for that ever. My name is Luisa I do whatever I want!

‘I try to do my part, wear a mask, going on the train, go to the school, they make us wear masks, I respect all these things.’

Luisa went onto say: ‘Maybe my ex girlfriend is watching, you are the most brutal person in the world byeee!!! Babe, I am my own karma b***h, karma is a b***h, karma is coming, I am a b***h, you know what I’m saying.’

It was reported that Luisa had been living with friends after splitting from Neil in December, but did not inform the Home Office where she is currently staying.

It meant immigration officers visited a friend’s home to try and track her down, without success.

Luisa tagged her location as London in an Instagram post last week. 

Friends stated on Saturday she has a student visa – even though it is usually necessary to leave the UK to make the application.

It is not known if she got permission to switch visas without leaving the country.

A friend told The Sun they had received an early morning visit from officers, explaining: ‘Immigration wanted to know where Luisa is. They seemed to think she had been staying in a friend’s house.

‘They produced an official letter, revealing Luisa’s full name, before searching any properties. Uniformed staff were going to a lot of time and effort to track her down, and seemed very anxious to find her.’

In November it was reported that Neil helped Luisa join a college so she could stay in UK on a student visa. 

It was previously claimed that the dancer came to the UK on a ‘fiancée visa’ when she was dating DJ Hannah Wants, 34, whose real name is Hannah Smith.

Neil was said to be ‘helping her sign up for a course’ after the visa is said to have expired in August after Luisa and Hannah split in July – weeks before she and Neil announced their romance, according to The Sun. 

Luisa moved out of the home she shared with Neil in mid-December with insiders revealing that the relationship ‘had become complicated and they are both at very different places in their lives.’ 

They went on to add that though the couple had been ‘on and off’ in the last few weeks, Neil was desperate to ‘glue them back together’.

They added that Luisa is a ‘free spirit’ who is ready to ‘live the single life’. 

A source told MailOnline: ‘Neil is mortified by her behaviour and has told friends he’s relieved that he asked her to move out when he did. 

‘They never officially had a conversation about splitting, Neil’s a nice guy and he just wanted to make sure she was ok since asking her to move out, as he cared for her and worried about how she would look after herself. 

‘But he’s no fool and these latest revelations have only served to confirm that he made the right decision.’

MailOnline contacted Neil’s representative for comment at the time. 

Luisa and Neil first confirmed their romance back in August, and it was the dancer’s first public relationship since he split from wife and Strictly co-star Katya in 2019. 

Their relationship was marred with controversy, with Neil later revealing they were living apart following claims Luisa had been unfaithful.

The choreographer – who asked Luisa to move in with him after just two weeks of dating – admitted he initially brushed off the rumours, before the couple ‘turned a corner’ following a candid chat.

Neil told Hello! magazine: ‘If people are not honest with me, then I can’t accept them in my life. We’ve sat down and talked and we’ve both been really honest with each other and I feel we’ve turned a corner.

‘But I can’t stand here and say everything is perfect even now. Luisa is a free spirit and loves life and it’s not easy to be in the public eye, but she accepts she has made mistakes that could also have an impact on my life.

‘It wasn’t the ideal way to form a relationship so quickly… [but] I love being with Luisa and we see a life together. Our relationship is real and she makes me happy. She puts a smile on my face every day.’  

It’s been said that tattooed beauty Luisa cheated with student Daniela Becerra.

Luisa is said to have invited Daniela back to Neil’s flat where they became intimate, before later telling her lover she was ‘married’.  

After finding out Luisa wasn’t single, performance art student Daniela is thought to have been shocked and wanted to leave, leaving the property at around 6am.
