Viewers defend Vito Coppola after interview with Sarah Hadland

Fans of Strictly Come Dancing have rushed to support Vito Coppola in response to criticism he faced during an interview alongside his dance partner Sarah Hadland. The two are currently competing in the latest series of the popular show, where they have garnered attention for their impressive performances, including a score of 33 for their Viennese Waltz in the last round.

During a recent appearance on the spin-off show It Takes Two, the atmosphere shifted when Sarah opened up about her emotional experience dancing to Hedwig’s Theme from Harry Potter, particularly in the wake of the passing of Dame Maggie Smith. While she expressed her feelings about this tribute, Vito was seen playfully adjusting the collar of her outfit, prompting light-hearted comments from host Fleur East.

However, this behavior did not sit well with some viewers, who felt Vito was overshadowing Sarah. One viewer took to social media to express frustration, suggesting that he should allow Sarah more time to speak. In contrast, many fans quickly came to Vito’s defense, praising his warm personality and the chemistry between him and Sarah. One supporter remarked on how well they complement each other, while another highlighted Vito’s positivity and energy.

As viewers await their next performance, where they will showcase a foxtrot to Billie Eilish’s Birds of a Feather, it’s clear that Vito’s exuberance and charm have made a lasting impression. The upcoming episode of Strictly Come Dancing will air on Saturday at 6:20 PM, with It Takes Two following weeknights at 6:30 PM.
