Soon, romance rumours began circulating with The Daily Star reporting on 3 November that their relationship was "bigger than what the camera captures."

"Vito and Ellie's connection is more than dance showmanship," a source told the publication. "It's turned personal, heartfelt, real. There's a unique glow around them in rehearsals, a palpable warmth."

This came after Vito paid tribute to Ellie in a video on Instagram, writing "And to you my Lulú... I am so proud of you and you know how much I believe in you so just keep going and keep working hard as you are already doing every day.

"You are doing great baby," he added, with Ellie commenting "Love you love you love you." We can't cope!

Now, their former Strictly co-star, Amanda Abbington, has basically confirmed that Ellie and Vito are, in fact, a couple!

In an Instagram post from the Strictly duo celebrating their scores on Sunday night (5 November), Amanda commented, "Stunning. So proud of the both of you. You are the most beautiful couple!".

If that isn't confirmation, we don't know what is!

Strictly Come Dancing continues on BBC1.
