Strictly's Vito Coppola shares video from family farm
Strictly Come Dancing star Vito Coppola has shared a video from his family farm, wishing his fans a happy New Year.
The professional triumphed in the latest series of the BBC show, lifting the Glitterball Trophy with former Coronation Street star Ellie Leach as they were voted champions.
The dancer subsequently returned home for the festive season following the conclusion of the series, and wrote a heartfelt note to accompany a video clip on Instagram.

"Happy New Year to everyone," he began in the caption. "Let's say that this is not the most common way for this kind of events, but the truth is that I didn't have time to make a 'social media' style video.
"And so as always, transparency in sharing life moments with you is spontaneous... Even though I'm a little dirty and messy I didn't want to miss this special day to wish you all a happy 2024... I wish EVERYONE a year full of health, happiness, love and what you desire most."
Vito continued: "I'm very grateful for everything that's happening in my life and I have no filter in sharing it with you, because my followers know how much I don't take anything for granted and how much I like to appreciate the little things.”

Vito subsequently referred to his family as "true wealth," describing himself as a "lucky person" who didn't "need anything else" before finally wishing his followers a year of happiness.
The attached video relayed many of the same sentiments in addition to alluding to life on the farm, explaining that there was always "work to do" around the property.
In true Vito fashion, he signed off playfully, saying he was rushing to get some food.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
