“‘Dancing with the Stars’ is a hotbed of steamy secret liaisons,” reports the National Enquirer, which goes on to say that pro dancer Derek Hough “has been carrying on an affair” with Welsh opera singer Katherine Jenkins.

For real?

According to the tabloid, after Jenkins ended her engagement to British TV host Gethin Jones, “Derek helped her pick up the pieces, and now they’re having a torrid fling.”

Ooh, almost as dramatic as an opera — yet entirely off-key.

Despite the mag’s claim of a “covert fling,” a source close to Hough tells Gossip Cop that the tab’s article is “bulls**t.”

Yet, another misstep by the Enquirer.
