Last year, Italian Vito showed off the design which featured a bee and aubergine logo on his upper arm, with the word "resilience" inked underneath. He explained: "It is going to be a bee with an aubergine body." Now ITV actress Ellie has added to her collection, with a square with a cross inside and a lightening bolt. The Faye Windass star donned a black top and denim shorts for her appointment, and kept her cool as she was tattooed in the chair. Ellie re-posted the images to her Instagram Stories with a cheeky laughing Emoji. In the Instagram gallery comments, tattooist Tal Booker told how the tatts were "teenie." Ellie is clearly no stranger to body art, and even had a matching inking with her best mate back in 2022. VITO TATT Yet it was her close bond with Italian Vito which sparked her body art a year later. After their joint appointment, Ellie proudly also showed off her arm and said: "Guys, we're just done! We are so, so happy. Ellie Leach gets matching tattoo with Strictly partner amid Bobby Brazier romance rumours "The best is Nicola Oprey. There she is, look at her. She's just the best. It's beautiful." The dancer and the soap star had referred to themselves as the "aubergine team" because Vito loves parmigiana, but decided to add a bee to the design because of its resilience. The couple previously said on ITV's This Morning that they were planning on getting tattoos to mark their incredible journey on the BBC One dance competition. Speaking about his relationship with Ellie, Vito said: "We have a great relationship and we are going to have a tattoo - as a joke - before we got to the final we promised ourselves we would get one of an Aubergine." Ellie shared: "We said if we made it to the final we would get a tattoo, but it was just a joke, we didn't expect to get there." Vito added: "At the end we decided to do a B with the body of an Aubergine because a B is a Brazilian insect. But that is a symbol of our bond." It came after The Sun revealed that Ellie and Strictly co-star Bobby had been growing close. 6 Ellie scooped the Strictly Glitter Ball trophy in 2023 Credit: PA 6 She then went on to have matching tatts with pto Vito Coppola Credit: Instagram / @vitocoppola
