Royal family voted for Rose Ayling-Ellis on Strictly Come Dancing

OHMYGOSSIP — Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall revealed the royal family voted for Rose Ayling-Ellis to win ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The 74-year-old actress is known to be a big fan of the BBC Latin and ballroom show but she revealed on a visit to the set of ‘EastEnders’ with her husband Prince Charles on Friday (01.04.22) that she’s not the only member of The Firm to watch the programme, and they were big fans of the soap actress, who scooped the Glitterball Trophy last year with dance partner Giovanni Pernice.
Greeting Rose as “the ‘Strictly’ star”, Camilla said: “We were all voting for you, Rose. I don’t know how you did all those dances.”
Asked if Queen Elizabeth also watched the show, the duchess replied: “I think she does. She probably watched you.”
Rose admitted her conversation with Camilla was “mind-blowing”.
She said: “It was really funny because she’s a huge fan of Strictly Come Dancing and she mentioned that she voted for me which is so lovely, and her grandchildren watch it.
“It is amazing, so lovely. I mean come on, it’s the Royal family voting for me, sometimes you forget how many people watch the show, I am mind-blown.”
The royal couple visited the Albert Square set while the cast were filming a special episode celebrating the queen’s Platinum Jubilee, and revealed themselves to be long-term viewers of the soap.
Gillian Taylforth, who plays Kathy Beale, revealed Camilla told her she used to watch her on the soap when it first aired in the 1980s.
The veteran actress said afterwards: “She said: ‘I remember Angie and Dirty Den, I’ve got a few more episodes to catch up on.”
And Natalie Cassidy, 38, who has appeared as Sonia Fowler for “29 years, on and off”, said Charles asked her how it had been to start working on the show when she was “so small”.
She said: “I just said sometimes it’s easier being 10, you don’t really know what you’re coming into, and we had a bit of a laugh and he was really, really lovely.
“Actually Camilla, although I didn’t meet and greet her, she actually came over and made a beeline to me to say: ‘I know you, you’ve been in it a long time haven’t you?’ so that was really sweet.
“They were very interested in all aspects and I think that is what’s amazing about them, they make every conversation seem fresh.”
The royal couple posed with the cast and crew for a photograph to mark the occasion, with Charles winning praise for giving his coat to Letitia Dean because she was cold.
