Strictly's Rose Ayling-Ellis has turned down a six-figure deal to endorse hearing aids with Specsavers because she doesn't want to mislead fans, a new report claims.
The actress, 27, is a passionate advocate of the NHS and reportedly has said no to big-money advertising opportunities for any non-NHS devices.
According to The Sun, the EastEnders star is believed to have been offered deals with a number of high street chains - including Specsavers - worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Rose - who is competing on this year's Strictly Come Dancing with Giovanni Pernice and is a favourite to win - is deaf and a British Sign Language user.
A source told the publication: 'Rose has already done so much to raise awareness of the plight deaf people face on a daily basis. She is a total inspiration.
'High street franchises like Specsavers sell hearing aids and several firms have been in touch to see if she wanted any freebies, or wanted to get on board for campaigns.

'Although it means turning down vast sums of money, Rose doesn't feel right accepting. She gets her hearing aids from the NHS and doesn't want to mislead her fans.
'Her pals have been joking that Rose should have gone to Specsavers but she's adamant not profiting from her condition is the right thing to do.'
