BBC Strictly Come Dancings Ellie Leach tells Vito I couldnt do this without you
Strictly Come Dancing star Vito Coppola was visibly moved as his dance partner and rumoured girlfriend Ellie Leach thanked him for changing her life.
The duo have become favourites on the BBC show this year, with fans captivated by their passionate dances and convinced that their chemistry indicates they are dating.
Coronation Street actress Ellie has now added fuel to the romance rumours with her sweet words about the impact Vito has had on her. As the pair made it through to the final of the dance contest, she told Vito she couldn't have done it without him.
"Thank you so much for being the best partner, the best friend, always making me laugh, always picking me up when I feel down, always pushing me to put all that hard work in," she said, looking into his eyes.
"Without you, I couldn't have done this experience at all," she told the dancer, who looked overwhelmed by her comments. "You have changed my life."
As first reported by Daily Star, Vito appeared surprised as Ellie spoke, and when she finished her heartfelt speech he looked tearful as he clapped a hand over his mouth. He then hugged her tightly and kissed her on the cheek as the audience cheered.
Rumours of a budding romance between Ellie and Vito have been swirling for weeks. While they haven't confirmed anything, their sweet social media exchanges have certainly got people talking.
Last month, things heated up when Vito shared a lovely post about how proud he was of Ellie. He posted a photo on Instagram of them nearly kissing during a routine, writing: "This journey is becoming more special every week.
"Through the dances and playing different characters we are able to discover many different sides of us, and I personally think that that's what life is, a journey to get to know ourselves better."
He added: "I am so so proud of you @ellielouiseleach and the woman you are becoming.
"Weeks ago I met a girl, and now look at you and I am sure that you still have much more to show and much more to say Lulu. Everyone is proud of you but mostly you have to be proud of yourself, because you and only you know all the sacrifices and the commitment needed to perform in that way, for someone who has never danced before. Brava Lulu keep going and let's keep danciiiiing."
Ellie and Vito have made it to the Strictly final, along with Layton Williams and his partner Nikita Kuzmin, and Bobby Brazier and his pro partner Dianne Buswell.
