Chemistry on and off the dance floor
Strictly Come Dancing couple Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola have set tongues wagging amid rumors of a romantic relationship. The pair, who have been working hard in rehearsals, were seen sharing a flirty chat and oozing chemistry during an interview with The Celeb Report.
A match made in dance heaven
In a heartwarming moment, Ellie gushed about Vito's genuine and loving nature, revealing that he gives the best cuddles. "I'm excited to see the bonds that we build over the course of our Strictly journey," she exclaimed.
Jumping for joy
Vito, with his arm tightly wrapped around Ellie, expressed his happiness at being paired up with her. "We ran to each other like in a slow-motion movie. We were so happy," he shared. The couple even managed to pull off a lift during their first rehearsal, showcasing their strong connection.
Bruises and all
Ellie's talent has come with its fair share of physical pain, with her sensitive skin bruising easily during rehearsals. However, both Ellie and Vito see these bruises as a testament to their journey on the show. "Sometimes you get bruises from the lifts, but it almost makes me proud," Vito laughed.
A fresh start for Ellie
Ellie, who split from her boyfriend in May after learning he had cheated on her, found solace in her role on Strictly. Sources close to her mentioned that the experience has brought joy back into her life, despite the difficult months she has had.
Casual dates and friendship
Vito, who is also single, had a few "casual dates" with former Strictly star Helen Skelton earlier this year. While they formed a strong bond, it seems they decided to remain friends.
With their undeniable chemistry and heartfelt moments, Ellie and Vito are definitely a Strictly couple to watch out for. Will their romance continue to blossom on and off the dance floor? Only time will tell.
