Strictly Come Dancing’s Ellie Leach shows off her ‘real skin’ as she’s accused of faking romance with Vito
STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Ellie Leach showed off her ‘real skin’ after she was accused of faking a romance with Vito Coppola.
The 22-year-old took to Instagram to show fans an unfiltered, close-up image of her face.
She captioned the post: “Good Morning everyone. My skin is seriously hating on me right now!!!
“I think it’s a mixture of things, sweating, everyday dancing, wearing more makeup than usual, weather change, all that jazz!!!
“But I’m trying my best to just embrace it!
“I used to be so embarrassed about my skin when i was younger, I would always get so anxious to go anywhere because i felt so awful about it but I’m slowly starting to realise that it’s NORMAL.
“Everyone’s skin is different so if you’re feeling the same as me at the minute, then you’re not on your own.”
The ex-Corrie actress is currently a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing and is competing alongside her pro partner – Vito Coppola, 31.
Fans have accused the duo of pretending to be romantic for the sake of reaching the final.
News of their pretend love affair comes after a frenzy of fan speculation — with Ellie and Vito failing to shut down rumours of a relationship.
A source said yesterday: “Vito is an experienced pro, and knows what he’s doing.
“He and Ellie had an instant friendship and a great connection, but it definitely wasn’t sexual.”
