"First day being 28 was on the last leg last night. Mad how my 27th has been the craziest, exciting, interesting, hardest year of my life. Forever grateful for all the love I've received. Thank you," Rose candidly revealed in the caption.

The star's day was made extra special thanks to Strictly professional Giovanni Pernice. The Sicilian-born dancer paid tribute to "beautiful" Rose with a series of entertaining throwback snaps.

Giovanni and Rose share a close bond

Rose and Giovanni quickly became friends during their time on last year's Strictly Come Dancing series. Indeed, they captured the nation's hearts when they performed a poignant Couple's Choice which left the audience in tears.

The mesmerising duo went on to take home the coveted glitterball trophy. At the time, Rose gushed: "Six months ago, I didn't have a clue what I signed up for and to be honest I was terrified… Now, I know for sure that it was the best decision I have ever made, what a crazy ride and life-changing experience it has been."
