Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom Instagram – This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the wonderful Ellie Goldstein and the extraordinary legacy she created, following her trailblazing appearance on Strictly Come Dancing this year. 🪩
Earlier this week, The Duchess of Edinburgh welcomed Ellie and her Strictly partner, Vito, to St James’s Palace for a special afternoon tea.
Alongside Ellie’s mum and the CEO of @Mencap, the trio discussed the lasting impact of Ellie’s appearance on the show – and there was even time to show Her Royal Highness a few moves! 💃🕺
Her Royal Highness is Patron of @Mencap, a charity that support people with a learning disability, their families and carers. | Posted on 08/Mar/2026 20:28:16
