Rose Ayling-Ellis debuts very different new look as fans brand it ‘gorgeous’

Former EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis wowed fans with her stunning new hair do while at a Paralympics event.

 

 

The 29-year-old who is best known for playing Frankie Lewis on the soap and winning Strictly Come Dancing in 2021, was named as one of the presenters for the

 

upcoming Paralympics, which will be held in Paris, France.

Rose was the first deaf actress to be cast on the show and has inspired many fans with disabilities. In 2021, she won Strictly Come Dancing with partner Giovanni Pernice, after wowing audiences with her dance skills.

Their iconic silent dance performance went on to win a Bafta for the ‘Must-See Moment of the Year’ and they eventually went on to win Strictly too.

Still, Rose initially ‘hated’ the idea.

‘I watched this pre-recorded video by external choreographers and immediately didn’t like what they’d come up with,’ she told The Guardian.

‘I was up for the idea, as long as it wasn’t a patronising stunt. An attempt to get the pity vote, all sad, dreary and “poor me”.’

‘It was what hearing people think deaf people experience. Very insular, cut-off, small. It was so sad. And that’s not me.’

Since winning Strictly, Rose has left EastEnders as Frankie Lewis and starred in a West End revival of As You Like It and will next be seen fronting her own documentary, Signs For Change.
