Rose Ayling-Ellis flaunts her figure in swimsuit on holiday after 'split from boyfriend'

Rose Ayling-Ellis is currently enjoying a sun-filled getaway in the Maldives with her pals, after reportedly splitting from her boyfriend Sam Arnold.

The Strictly Come Dancing star, 27, took to her Instagram Story on Tuesday (September 13) to flaunt her incredible figure, sharing some bikini snaps as she relaxed in the sea.

Rose, best known for playing Frankie Lewis on EastEnders, looked stunning in a red bandeau bikini top and matching bottoms which highlighted her toned physique.

She showed off her natural beauty with a makeup-free look and let her long brown hair fall loosely over her shoulders.

Rose seemed to be having a great time, as she smiled for the camera and held onto snorkelling equipment.

A second snap showed the soap star standing in the middle of some crystal clear water. She jokingly captioned the posts: "Instagram vs reality."

Rose described her holiday as "heaven" and said she was with "the best company", as she shared a picture of her stunning hotel views and another enjoying a glass of champagne with a friend.

Her trip to the Maldives comes after she travelled to Sicily to visit her pro dance partner Giovanni Pernice. During the trip, Rose was introduced to his sister Angela.

The trio posed for a picture outside Angela's dance studio and were also joined by fellow Strictly star Anton du Beke.

Giovanni, 32, was reportedly filming a new BBC1 travel show with Anton, 56, when Rose turned up to surprise the pair.

The visit came as romance rumours have surrounded Rose and Giovanni for months, with Rose said to have split from her boyfriend Sam. He is thought to have grown close to one of their mutual friends.

They were together for seven years before deciding to go their separate ways and the split is said to be "very amicable".

A friend explained: "They spent a lot of time apart while Rose was away on tour, which has had an impact.

"It’s been difficult for them both, of course, but they’re certain it’s the right move — and Sam’s had a shoulder to cry on in their mutual friend Aimee."

Rose's boyfriend is said to have confided in CBeebies host Aimee Campbell-Nottage, according to The Sun.
