Ellie treated fans to a snap of fellow Strictly star and long-term friend Jayde appearing topless from the pod.
The comedian and actress, 37, looked miffed as she posed for the photo.
Ellie wrote: "Me and Jayde Adams have known each other for over a decade.

"What a treat to share this special experience of getting nude, popping on hairnets and getting all our bits spray painted by (lovely" strangers."
Jayde returned the favour by sharing an image of Ellie looking horrified as she got her golden tan.
She captioned it: "10 years I've known this girl.
"Today we stepped over a threshold of friendship and stripped off for our spray tans. What a moment."
Ellie is also known for her work as a stand-up comic and regularly goes on tour with her show.
She announced her Strictly news on ITV's Lorraine last month and said: “It is so nice to release it to the universe. I found out a few months ago. I have managed to keep it in.”
Asked how she reacted to being asked to be on Strictly, she revealed: “It was an immediate yes.
"I have wanted to do it for ever and more importantly my mum loves it.”
Meanwhile, Jayde - who won the Funny Women award in 2014 - will also be swapping the mic for the dancefloor.
During a chat with Scott Mills and Chris Stark she said: "Since I watched the first series in 2004, I feel like every step I’ve taken in my career over the last 11 years was to be on Strictly.
"I cannot begin to express the emotions I am feeling, this means so much to me and my family."
The glittering cast have been seen for the first time at rehearsals ahead of the show launch.
A number of the contestants were spotted wearing lycra leggings as training sessions kicked off.
