Strictly winner Rose Ayling-Ellis shares rare picture with brother Jacob as they dance on the beach
STRICTLY Come Dancing winner Rose Ayling-Ellis danced on the beach in rare snap with her brother.
The EastEnders star – best known for playing Frankie Lewis in the BBC soap – performed the infamous Dirty Dancing lift on the beach with her elder brother Jacob.
Rose captured the flying moment and shared it with her 525k Instagram followers.
The actress – who won the dance competition alongside Giovanni Pernice earlier this month – captioned the snap: “Strictly you’re still not out of my system ”
Giovanni commented: “Well done!!!! ”

Fellow Strictly contestant AJ Odudu replied with laughing and heart emojis.
A devastated AJ had to pull out of the Strictly Come Dancing final after an ankle injury.
The soap star made history on Saturday after becoming the first deaf contestant to win the BBC ballroom series.
They managed to beat John Whaite and Johannes Radebe to the top spot of the competition.
One person who has supported Rose throughout is her boyfriend Sam.
The two have been together for around seven years.
In 2020, OK magazine reported on them spending their six year anniversary together.
