Vito Coppola, Strictly Come Dancing star, has been showered with support from fellow dancers and adoring fans as he revealed his latest personal endeavour.

The professional dancer excitedly took to social media announcing that he could 'finally share' the fruits of his secretive labours, having earlier hinted at a big reveal.

Despite a hectic schedule training with his celebrity partner Sarah Hadland, Vito found time to generate buzz with a video hinting at his project, looking dapper in a crisp black shirt and tailored trousers while striking a series of poses.

With the teasing post, he expressed: "Good day beautiful people. Little news on the way coming soon... Cannot wait to share it with you. In the meantime I wish you an happy day and I send you all my positive energy #alwayswithlove. V."

The wait is finally over as Vito confirmed on Monday evening (November 25) the nature of his secret project. On Instagram, he shared another clip where he was seen effortlessly commanding the camera's attention, divulging that these shots are part of his debut calendar.

Sarah swiftly engaged with the post, inquiring: "Do I get the first one???" Vito's co-dancer Neil Jones joked: "Can I get one? Well it's for a friend," while Nikita Kuzmin humorously demanded: "Nowwwwww! send me this calendar hahah." Ellie Leach, Vito’s former dance partner and pal, endorsed the idea with enthusiasm, commenting: "Yesssssss," accompanied by rows of flame emojis. It Takes Two presenter Fleur East humorously asked: "Ha ha!!!! Can we get an apron for Nova in baby size please partner?"

Vito's legion of fans were not far behind to cheer on the Celebrity MasterChef champion's new endeavour. @princesssazzle enthused: "OMG and I thought Gary Barlow announcing his solo tour as being the highlight of my day!! What a happy Monday." Juney_Taylor73 expressed amazement: "Oh my god! I think all my Christmases have come at once!"

Social media user @dav1d.c.green admired the strategy with: "Bravo, you know your audience!" Another follower, @sarah.j948, couldn't contain her excitement: "Oh my word. Calendar's gone straight to the top of my Christmas list! Actually just give it all to me now." And @kmfan08 was thrilled beyond measure: "This just made my year!!!! Calendar ordered - 365 days of Vito?? Who could ask for more!!!!!"
