Strictly Come Dancing's Vito Coppola was among those showing support to JB Gill as he made a fresh announcement alongside his wife and their children. The pair are currently competing against each other in the BBC One dance contest.

While Italian dancer, and reigning Strictly champion Vito is paired with actress Sarah Hadland, JLS star JB is partnered with Amy Dowden with both couples competing in the 2024 series.
