I’m loving the annabel/Layton friendship on tour. I didn’t expect it but maybe she sees him as her surrogate son whilst she’s away from her children!
In fairness to Layton, he really seems to get one with everyone and they do always seem to say how much they love him on their stories, even just little comments give that impression!

I think with his age (29) he's able to connect with both the younger ones (Bobby, Ellie) and the older ones (Annabel, Krishnan etc.).

He's also more used to this kind of workload so I imagine he can handle the stress and strain of the shows much better than the rest of the celebrities so if able to go around making others feels better cause he's still full of energy!!

Plus Layton has been working since he was a kid so he’s probably quite mature.

Regarding Ange I think it’s amazing she’s lasted this long without needing a break tbh.
 
Lots of people have commented on how kind Layton is and how he looks out for people. I would imagine compassion for people totally out of their comfort zone who may be feeling a bit overwhelmed at times plays a big part in these friendships too.

I had just about managed to accept my Lakita shipping fantasies were a delusion and now every time I see them together they are hanging off each other 😩
 
I’m so bloody happy to see them winning so many of the tour shows. They are both phenomenal dancers & one of the best pairings Strictly have had in recent years, so at least they are feeling the love now! They seem to have had a lot of success at their workshops too!

I wonder if they’ll do anything to capitalise on it.. a short run of shows together this year would genuinely sell I recon! Or drag Layton into one of the random combo of pros & celebs that pop up sometimes..

Watching them last night they could easily sell out their own shows. Together they are just utterly amazing. My jaw was on the floor when they danced.

Just hope they don't announce a tour this month

I've booked a holiday for me and the old dear and got her front row seats for engelbert humpetdink. And my MOT is due.

So if they would wait till March, that would be great thanks 🤣🤣🤣

But not, sadly, hanging out each other.

Me: I am going to be completely normal and not at all deranged about these very obviously platonic friends
Also me: ffs, what are they doing though???? 😭

I've only ever shipped one RPF ship before when I was 17, this is so embarrassing 😂

Oh a tour with Layton, Nikita, Vito and Carlos - that would be a tour of dreams.

Is Vita selling well? I’m not business financially minded but that’s quite increase.
Hmm. Just because they have assets of over £1m doesn't make him a millionaire! That presumably has to be reinvested, plus there are 3 or 4 of them in the company. I'd say his million pounds are similar to his million insta followers!
But yeah, maybe Jus de Fanny has been improbably successful despite only selling online/to Beryls at his shows?
I read somewhere that he and Pasquale were teaching dance classes yesterday (hence why he wasn't at the show, though he wouldn't have gone anyway). So prob £5k each for that for a few hours' work. You can't say he's not a hard worker!

You can also see why Pasquale is happy to make the most of it too.

I feel like a right saddo but GPVita is separate and one of the people has already resigned - hmm GPVita maybe not doing that well. I’m guessing it’s all his tours, classes and tv appearances are paying off.

Tbf, like, I'm not a shipper, but I did side-eye them a few times during the run of the show. It really wasn't even the tactile stuff either 👀 So, I get it where the shippy stuff comes from.
 
I feel a bit mean snarking about Ellie's terrible taste going for Booby. Realistically Vito probably is a bit too old for her and good for her having a (hopefully) quick, fun fling after getting out of a longterm relationship. She could do worse. It's not as cringe as Jowita going for Fanny Rat.
(Assuming she has gone for Booby and it's not just a PR stunt.)

I don't think Bobby is that bad, he's just very young and I don't just mean age wise! And then reversely Ellie came across so mature during strictly, but she's only a babe herself!!
