Ellie Leach has left the UK for a well-deserved holiday after finishing the part of Miss Scarlett in the stage production Cluedo 2 – The Next Chapter. The role was the stage acting debut for the actress.

The production ended on November 30, 2024 after nine months on the road. The former Strictly winner has shared pictures from Tenerife following the end of the show.

In one photo shared to Instagram she tagged a restaurant and was pictured with a glass of wine and in another post she stunned in a denim two-piece as fans and friends supported her.

Both Strictly’s Dianne Buswell and Coronation Street’s Helen Flanagan were among the commenters as they left heart-eyed emojis under Ellie’s most recent Instagram post. Fans added “Stunning beautiful girl” and “So incredibly beautiful”

The 23-year-old won the hearts of the nation on her way to lifting the Glitterball last year with Vito Coppola. The former Coronation Street actor stepped outside of her comfort zone to participate in the BBC contest

The stage adaptation of the classic board game which had been touring since March was something Ellie found to be a challenge for herself. Ellie told the ECHO she still has to confront nerves ahead of each performance.

She said: “We will open the show and I’ll be nervous every night. I don’t think that will ever go away. But I think the touring aspect for me is obviously different. I’ve really loved that aspect. The show is great. The audiences have fun when they watch it but we also have so much fun on stage. That’s what’s great about going to work and having a laugh.”
