Strictly Come Dancing star Ellie Goldstein took her dancing talents to St James’s Palace with a performance for the Duchess of Edinburgh.

The model and actress last year became the first Strictly contestant with Down’s syndrome with Sophie, patron of the charity Mencap, sharing a video message during the final in which she praised Ellie’s impact in challenging perceptions.
