Strictly couple Bobby Brazier and Ellie Leach to face 'huge test' amid romance
Strictly Come Dancing’s newest couple, Bobby Brazier and Ellie Leach, are about to face their first test.
The pair looked radiant posing together on the red carpet at the press night for the play Hadestown in the West End on Wednesday.
But next week Ellie, 22, starts a nationwide tour in Cluedo 2 while Bobby, 20, has resumed filming EastEnders near London.
A source said: “Ellie has grown in confidence so much since Strictly, which really helped her get over everything with her ex. She is visibly shining. They are making the most of their time together.

Bobby has been filming in Borehamwood, Herts, since Monday, his character Freddie expected on screen in April. Ellie makes her stage debut on Thursday, replacing fellow ex-Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan, in the comedy whodunit which tours until the end of July.
Bobby, who partnered Dianne Buswell in Strictly, and Ellie, who won the glitterball with Vito Coppolo, sparked dating rumours last month at a Birmingham hotel while on the show’s tour.
Last week, Bobby called Ellie “beautiful and amazing” at the TV Choice awards. He added she was a “sweetheart” but was coy over confirming their relationship.
Pressed on whether they were dating, he added: “She’s a lovely, lovely, lovely friend of mine.” Ellie also confirmed the pair had “bonded” since touring together.
Last March, Ellie split from boyfriend of five years Reagan Pettman. He admitted cheating on her about the same time she was axed from the soap. Last month he said: “I hurt her and I am not proud of it. I broke her heart.”
