Strictly Come Dancing stars Bobby Brazier and Ellie Leach have parted ways just six weeks after the Strictly tour ended.
The EastEnders star - who danced alongside Strictly pro 34-year-old Dianne Buswell - and 23-year-old Ellie, who won the 2024 dance competition alongside 31-year-old Vito Coppola, were reportedly in a relationship earlier this year.
The duo are said to have grown a close bond during the 2024 Strictly Live! Tour which saw them travel across the UK from January until the middle of February reports the Mirror.
However, unfortunately for the pair their romance is said to have fizzled - just weeks after the live tour came to an end, meaning they were spending less time together.
Ellie - who rose to fame as a star on Coronation Street - lives in the Manchester area, whereas Bobby lives close to London and the EastEnders studios where he continues to act as Freddie Slater on the BBC soap.
Reports have claimed Ellie and Bobby have decided to throw in the towel on their romance now that they aren't spending as much time together.
It is also claimed that the pair hope to maintain a friendship now they have called it quits on their relationship.
A source told The Sun: “Love blossomed between them when they were in close quarters on the tour, but once that ended they both spent much less time together. That gave them space to think about the future, which is likely to take them in very different directions over the coming year or two. So they decided the best thing to do was quit while they were ahead and while they were still pals, because they both really cherish the friendship they have.”
The end of their relationship comes days after Ellie slammed speculation she was dating Italian dance star Vito.
