Strictly Come Dancing fans were left "screaming" on Saturday night after Vito Coppola made a saucy comment to his dance partner Ellie Leach, fueling more romance rumours.<\/p>\n

The professional dancer, 31, and Coronation Street star, 22, have been the subject of romance rumours in recent weeks with their undeniable chemistry both on and off the dance floor. After impressing the judges on Saturday night, 25 November, with their incredible Argentine Tango to Destiny's Child hit Bills, Bills, Bills, romance speculation between the pair was fuelled even more.<\/p>\n

Speaking to host Claudia Winkleman after their steamy performance, Vito was asked about how much control was needed for this particular dance. "So much control, it was difficult as coming from last week, she was so spread out with everything and this one you have to keep everything in," Vito replied.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He added: "There is a ball of fire between us and I said 'Look at me and eat me with your eyes'." The comment was followed by gasps from Claudia and fellow Strictly dancers, along with viewers at home. <\/p>\n

Taking to X, formally Twitter, one wrote: "DID VITO JUST SAY 'eat me with ur eyes' LIVE ON THE BBC. I AM SCREAMING." <\/p>\n

A second said: "'Eat me with your eyes' Vito – there's a fair number of us who've been doing that since last year!!"<\/p>\n

"'Eat me with your eyes' Oh Vito", a third added. Commenting on their chemistry another said: "I want a man to look at me the way Vito looked at Ellie at the end of that routine".<\/p>\n

Another moment from Saturday night which floored fans was when the dancing duo shared a lingering look at the end of their Argentine Tango, with saw viewers facing to comment on the thought-to-be near kiss. Taking to Instagram one wrote: "How they didn't kiss at the end…. oooh hot!"<\/p>\n

A second said: "I\u2019m sorry but did anyone see at the end when the music stops bits and Ellie just literally stared into each others eyes what a great partnership xxx"<\/p>\n

"This was SO HOT!!! Amazing dance!", gushed a third.<\/p>\n

While fans heavily praise their routine, they were left unimpressed by the feedback from judges Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood who claimed it "lacked intensity." Hitting back at the judges, one fan wrote on Instagram: "Not intimate!! What were you watching I thought he was going to ravish her then and there."<\/p>\n

A second commented: "Not intimate??? Craig the intimacy is off the chart. I think I\u2019m pregnant just by watching this!!!!!"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"This was absolutely INCREDIBLE. So confused that Craig and Anton just didn\u2019t see how amazing it was", said a third.<\/p>\n

Another labelled them a "beautiful couple" and wrote: "Amazing Argentine tango and what!!! not intimate those men need their eyes testing. Best dance of the night and should have been 40. My winners as their such a beautiful couple."<\/p>\n

"What a breathtaking Argentine Tango it was passionate, intense and sensual. You have my vote, great dance Ellie and Vito should have been 40", saidone more. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
