Strictly feud exposed days before final as fans claim dancer hates co-star

Strictly Come Dancing fans reckon they have rumbled a secret feud between Graziano Di Prima and Vito Coppola.

The two dancers have both been a part of this year’s series of the glitzy BBC One show. Graziano was partnered with Love Island star Zara McDermott – but the pair became the fifth couple to get the boot.

Vito meanwhile, is now a two-time Strictly finalist. He will be strutting his stuff on the dance floor this weekend alongside Coronation Street star Ellie Leach in a bid to take home the Glitterball trophy.

However, after Saturday night’s show (December 9) fans are convinced that Graziano ‘hates’ Vito. According to viewers, he was not too impressed while watching Vito talk to Claudia Winkleman after his dance.

Taking to an online forum after Saturday night's show, one person said: “Lol what do these Italian pros have against Vito. They always look unimpressed or bored." Someone else chimed in and agreed: “I'm glad someone else spotted it! I said to my mum then 'Look at Graziano's face!' A bit envious I think. Maybe he wants his turn in the limelight!"

A third penned: “The look on Graz’s face when Vito was giving his full Italian , tantarella, mozerella, mamma Mia routine. He wasn’t buying it!!" A fourth wrote: “I don't buy Vito's act. The long trying to be funny explanations of dance moves etc. Graza and Gio both know it is fake."

It comes after Vito was left with tears in his eyes after partner Ellie Leach issued a heartfelt dedication to him. The pair have become huge favourites on the BBC ballroom show this year, with viewers gripped by their passionate routines and convinced that their chemistry and affection towards each other is a sign that they are dating.

Ellie has now fuelled the romance rumours with her sweet comments about the impact Vito has had on her. She spoke out as the duo made it through to the final of the ballroom contest, telling 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 as she looked into his eyes. "Without you, I couldn't have done this experience at all," she told the dancer, who looked overwhelmed at her comments. "You have changed my life.”
