Strictly Come Dancing winners Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola gave fans a relationship update as they made their return to the live show on Saturday (14 September).
Vito said: “Don’t worry, I am very present in her life, I often call her at 7am and wake her up.
After their performance, the couple, who were at the centre of romance rumours last year, told host Tess Daly they remain close.
