Strictly stars Ellie Leach and Vito have continued to spark romance rumours following their ballroom win the other day.
The duo have shut down relationship rumours in several interviews, but fans aren’t convinced.
Ellie Leach can’t imagine life without Vito Coppola
According to Heat magazine, the Coronation Street star “swore” that she wouldn’t be that person who fell for their dance partner.
However, things have taken an unexpected turn as she’s grown closer to Vito. An insider revealed to the magazine that the couple has formed an “intimate relationship” together, which means they can’t be without each other.
“He has been so patient with her and all of Ellie’s family love him to bits, too. He’s become an honorary member. Vito feels the same about Ellie. He can’t stop talking about her or smiling whenever he’s with her,” added the source.
Despite this, Ellie and Vito will have to “adjust” to life without Strictly and deal with the newfound attention from the public.
The source continued: “They won’t be spending every minute of every day together anymore, so they need to adjust to that. The Strictly bubble is great while you’re in it, but once it goes, real life and relationships can seem a lot harder.”
