She was rumoured to have found love again after being spotted getting 'touchy feely' with hunky Josh Yentob on holiday in Miami over New Year. 

But Daisy Lowe is still single and 'too busy' for romance, a source close to the star exclusively told MailOnline.

No new romance: Daisy Lowe, pictured last November, is not dating Josh Yentob

The 27-year-old model, who impressed on Strictly Come Dancing with partner Aljaz Skorjanec last year, is too busy concentrating on her career to find time for a relationship.

'Daisy is busy rehearsing for the Strictly Come Dancing tour, and has some exciting fashion projects coming up following her return to the catwalk last weekend,' the source added. 'She is concentrating on her career at the moment.'

Daisy, who strutted out onto on the catwalk at the Katie Eary show at London Fashion Week at the weekend, spent New Year's Day with Josh whilst on holiday in Miami.

The pair were also seen enjoying each other's company at a beach bar.

Daisy fell victim to the 'Strictly curse' in November after splitting with beau Bradley 'Frankie' Wade after just a few months of dating. 

Detailing the rehearsals, promotional commitments and appearances on spin-off It Takes Two, Daisy told The Sun it became impossible to sustain her relationship with the hunk.

'At the beginning, which is supposed to be the most joyful ­honeymoon period, I had nothing to give him, we could have coped with the pressure if we had been together for ages and had known all of the ins and outs of each other,' she said'

Daisy added that she had no personality at the end of a day of training at Strictly, coupled with the weekend performance and commitments to It Takes Two.

She continued: 'Trying to start a new relationship at the same time was just too much. Strictly is the most intense thing I’ve ever done, as well as the best.' 

Daisy said that couple - who dared for five months - were too early on in their relationship to love each other, anyway.

'Love didn’t ever come into mine and Frankie’s relationship,' she went on. 'We never talked about it because we only dated for a few months.

Strictly Come Dancing Live! kicks off on January 20 in Birmingham.
