Strictly Come Dancing champion Rose Ayling-Ellis has revealed the sweet gesture that Prince Charles and Camilla extended to her during their visit to the EastEnders set. Rose, who plays Frankie Lewis in the BBC One soap, met the The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall when they filmed an EastEnders cameo.
The star, who made history as Strictly's first deaf contestant last year and has campaigned for British Sign Language to be recognised as an official language and be given legal status in the UK. And she was impressed that the royal couple conversed with her using BSL.
Speaking ahead of the Platinum Party at the Palace in honour of the Queen's 70 year reign, Rose told host Kirsty Young: "They tried out acting. It was really, really special. Both of them came up to me and the first thing they did they signed 'good morning' to me."
