Swimmer Ellie, 27, who was cheered on at four Paralympic Games as she brought home eight medals including five golds, has a form of dwarfism that causes shorter limbs.
On Saturday 4ft 1in Ellie wowed 6.8 million viewers with a sassy chacha with 5ft 10in Ukrainian pro-partner Nikita Kuzmin, 24 scoring 26 points from the delighted judges.
She revealed afterward, however, that trolls had posted vicious, upsetting barbs about her.
Ellie said: "I've had it already. Some people have said, 'How's the dwarf going to dance?" It's sad and it does get to you. People have reached out to me, it's been so touching."
Strictly fans rallied to her defense, saluting her courage and praising her thrilling performance on the hit entertainment show.
One tweeted: "Those trolling Ellie Simmonds absolutely disgraceful.
Bravery
