Strictly's Ellie Leach says she's 'so proud' of Coronation Street co-star

Ellie Leach has told how she's 'so proud' of her Coronation Street co-star as she continues to carve out her own post-soap career. until her exit in early 2023.

The pair faced stiff competition in the grand final back in December from Dianne Buswell and Bobby Brazier and Layton Williams and Nikita Kuzmin and were left speechless when host Tess Daly confirmed they were the winners of Strictly 2023 before they lifted the coveted Glitterball trophy. Then, following her success in the hit dance show, Ellie landed her first stage role in the play Cluedo 2 - The Next Chapter. She took over the role from Helen Flanagan at the eleventh hour and hit the ground running following the end of the Strictly tour in February.

"I was so scared about doing theatre and being in front of a live audience and having that reaction straight away. It's scary. It's something that's completely out of my comfort zone and new to me. Strictly gave me that confidence to be like, you know what, I’m going to try something new."
