‘Very close proximity’

Asking about rehearsals for tonight’s show, host Janette Manrara said: “You guys have been in very close proximity for this dance, haven’t you?”

Putting her palms together and intertwining her fingers, she went on: “You’ve been literally like this. How are you finding being that close to someone?”

Ellie indicated the physical intimacy the two experience as dancers is far from romantic.

Vito knows that he burps a lot. In my face!
