Ellie Leach in tears over Strictly tour amid rumoured romance with Bobby Brazier
Ellie Leach has been left gutted that her Strictly journey is nearing its end amid her rumoured romance with co-star Bobby Brazier.
The 22-year-old actress triumphed on the series in December, lifting the coveted Glitterball trophy with partner Vito Coppola and beating Bobby Brazier and Layton Williams to the title. She has since been participating in the Strictly tour alongside her fellow castmates and former finalists. Taking to her Instagram, Ellie revealed that her Strictly journey will be over in just a few days, leaving her in a flood of tears. The cohort of Strictly stars are set to take to the stage for the last time this weekend at the 02 Arena in London.
In a video, Ellie emotionally said: "Hello everyone, just wanted to come on to catch up because I haven't been on (Instagram) that much and there's a lot to unfold. First of all, I just want to say thank you all so much for all your messages about the Strictly tour. I can't believe that in a couple of days it's going to be over.
She added: "If I think about it too much I cry so I try not to think too much about the end. But thank you all so much, I'm so glad that everyone who's been to see the show has enjoyed it. We have loved putting on a performance for you all every night."

Ellie was issued a stark warning over her rumoured romance with Bobby Brazier (Instagram)Earlier this year, reports emerged that winner Ellie and Bobby Brazier were "secretly dating", with the pair said to be spending "nearly all their free time together" and "flirting increasingly openly". In February, they were seen leaving their Newcastle hotel together before Ellie shared a photo of her and Bobby cuddled up together on Instagram recently, which further sparked romance rumours.
In 2021, it was reported that Bobby, who is the son of late reality star Jade Goody and TV presenter Jeff Brazier, was dating 18-year-old model Liberty Love for 18 months before the relationship ended last September, just ahead of Bobby starting his stint on Strictly.
