Strictly fans stunned by Vito’s VERY racy comment to Ellie after ‘near kiss’ – did you spot it?
STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Vito Coppola fueled romance rumours once again with a VERY racy comment to his dance partner Ellie Leach.
The dance duo, who took to the dancefloor on Saturday night with a passionate Argentine Tango, raised eyebrows after sharing a “near-kiss” moment during their routine.
The Coronation Street star, 22, and the professional dancer, 31, wowed the judges with their dance to Bills, Bills, Bills by Destiny’s Child – which later scored them a brilliant 38 points.
Talking to host Claudia Winkleman after their performance, Vito was asked about the amount of control needed for the dance.
He explained: “So much control, it was difficult as coming from last week, she was so spread out with everything and this one you have to keep everything in.
“There is a ball of fire between us and I said “look at me and eat me with your eyes”.
Everyone in the studio gasped, as well as viewers at home.
It comes after Vito added more fuel to the speculation as they cuddle up for a series of loved-up snaps.
Taking to Instagram on Friday, Vito shared a new set of what appeared to be “couple” snaps.
Professional dancer Vito wrote alongside the post: “Live the present and be grateful for what you have in life.
“Be happy for waking up every morning and appreciate the small things. This makes the real Happiness”.
“These are the words that Lulú and I keep repeating to each other.”
Ellie responded in the comments: “Always live in the present and appreciate the little things [heart emoji] so lucky and grateful for this experience with you xxx.”
