Love, Vito: My Story of Food, Family and Finding Home - The brand new autobiography from the much-loved Strictly Come Dancing star
Love, Vito is a warm and heartfelt memoir from Strictly Come Dancing star Vito Coppola, telling his life story through the food that has always sustained him - because, as Vito often says, food is life!
Born in Southern Italy, he grew up in a world where the kitchen was the centre of family, discipline, celebration and love - shaping not only his palate, but his joyful, generous approach to life.
As Vito's journey takes him from his Italian roots to international success - including his rise to fame on Strictly Come Dancing - food remains a constant, connecting him to where he comes from as he builds a life far from home. Interspersed throughout the book are recipes that mark key moments along the his Nonna's ragù, dishes cooked between rehearsals, meals shared during the intensity of Strictly, and comforting favourites made after long days of training. Each recipe sits alongside the story it belongs to, bringing Vito's memories, humour and energy vividly to life.
With stories to savour and recipes to cook at home, it's an invitation into Vito's world - and a celebration of good food, hard work, family and finding joy wherever you are.

I absolutely love Vito and Strictly, so it was a no brainer that I would want to read his book! What I loved the most was really getting to know and understand Italian food and culture, as well as Vito's long dance career. It's very clear that he is incredibly loving and humble, despite all his success.

Listened to the audible book in the car , just made me smile for the most part and love his expressions and pronunciation of the English words ! Glad I listened rather than just read ! Vito you lit up my week ! Love your energy , enthusiasm and love for so many people that have touched your life so far ! You are young yet and may you have many more happy times !
