BBC Strictly’s Ellie Leach tells Vito ‘I love you’ ahead of ‘beautiful day together’

Strictly Come Dancing star Ellie Leach has told her dance partner Vito Coppola "I love you", as he confessed he was looking forward to another “beautiful” day together.

The pair have sparked comments throughout the series about their electric connection, and as Vito thanked his fans for their support, Ellie took the moment to share her love for the 31 year old.

On Wednesday, 1 October, Vito shared a video of him on his Instagram account, where he said that he and Ellie “feel so close” to their fans, and they don’t take “anything for granted.”

He also admitted that the love from his fans help him when he is feeling “alone,” as his family are still in Italy while he is in the UK.

Alongside the video, Vito shared a sweet caption, where he paid a sweet tribute to former Coronation Street actress Ellie.

He wrote: “Just THANK YOU. Sorry for repeating the same thing more times, but this is the only way I have to show you all my gratitude and How thankful I am.

“One year ago, when I moved here to the UK, I couldn’t imagine that I would have feel so loved. Thank you, thank you, thank you very much.”

Vito continued: “And to you my Lulú.. I am so proud of you and you know how much I believe in you, so just keep going and keep working hard as you are already doing every day. You are doing great, baby.

“Have a good rest tonight, and make sure you eat properly. See you tomorrow for another beautiful day together.”

Twenty two year old Ellie was quick to respond to the adorable post, as she commented: “love you love you love you,” followed by a number of red heart emojis.

Ellie also reposted the video to her Instagram story, as she wrote: "Honestly I'm crying watching this… This man amazes me EVERY SINGLE DAY.

"The hard work, commitment and love that he puts into every aspect of his wife is so inspiring and I'm so lucky to dance with him every single day.

"@Vitocoppola you are one special human, thank you to YOU!"

The public display of love between the pair came just hours after they appeared on the Strictly spin-off show Strictly It Takes Two, where Vito kissed Ellie’s hand.

Ellie was speaking about Vito at the time as he beamed and took her hands and kissed one of them.

Speaking to host Janette Manrara, Ellie said: “I think that every week I'm seeing myself grow much more. I've always known that he's an amazing dancer, and choreographer, and person, so I do trust you.

“And why wouldn't you listen to a professional?! He knows exactly what he's doing.”

Following the sweet moment, Ellie was grinning from ear to ear as she laughed off the kiss from her dance partner.

Earlier in the series, when the pair finished their Paso Doble, they looked passionately into each other's eyes and appeared to share a kiss.
