Vito and Ellie celebrated their epic Strictly performance with lots of kisses.
Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola had a night to remember on this week's Strictly Come Dancing. The former Coronation Street star, 22, and her Italian partner, 30, wowed the judges with their Charleston, scoring an impressive 39 points.

The couple lit up the Blackpool Tower Ballroom with their daring routine, with the judges in awe of their lifts. Love Machine by Girls Aloud was the perfect soundtrack to their performance, which placed them joint top of the leaderboard alongside Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin.

Head judge Shirley Ballas praised them for their effort, saying: "You just looked like you were totally at home!" Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke also complemented their energy and detail.

Craig Revel Horwood was the only judge to not score the dance a 10, but did give them a respectable nine. Even though he noted that Ellie was slightly ahead of the beat in one section, he praised their routine, saying: "That has to be one of the hardest Charlestons we’ve seen, also the best cross swivel I’ve seen in this show ever. Incredible."

The pair's chemistry was undeniable, and after they received their score, Vito couldn't help but shower Ellie with kisses. As the actress leaned in for a hug, Vito went in for the smooches, jumping up and down with his arms around her.

Strictly fans are certain that the pair are an item, however, Ellie has assured that they are just friends. In an interview with OK! Magazine, she said: "It was only a kiss on the cheek. He gives me a kiss on the cheek every Saturday! It was definitely on the cheek. We really, really get along and we have a lovely friendship. I hope we can continue that."

Ellie and Vito are hot favourites to make the final, and with only a few weeks left, it won't be long until we find out if they make it.
