The former Coronation Street star was the first to take to the ballroom floor for a sexy samba with Vito Coppola
Strictly Come Dancing viewers have threatened to 'riot' as Ellie Leach was left in tears just minutes into week four of the competition. The former Coronation Street star was the first to take to the ballroom floor following the usual introductions on Saturday night .
She shook her hip, twirled and dipped her way to a score of 28 but faced some criticism from the judges. Head judge Shirley Ballas said Leach had "mastered" the dance from the waist upwards but advised her to focus on her footwork. But as Ellie and Vito headed up to speak to co-host Claudia Winkleman alongside her fellow celebrities and the professional dancers, the former soap star was left in tears.
Claudia insisted she hadn't let Vito down as he said: "No, my baby!" and pulled her in for a side hug and gave her a kiss on her forehead. "You did not let him down," Claudia said as Ellie composed herself and replied: "No, it was great to open the show. I feel like I'm not excited to watch everybody else."
