Giovanni Pernice shows off his tattoos as he poses shirtless on holiday as he weathers the storm of the ongoing Strictly Come Dancing misconduct investigation
As a seasoned journalist with years of experience under my belt, I must say that this situation involving Amanda Abbington and Giovanni Pernice is truly disheartening. The allegations, the investigations, the death threats – it’s all just a stark reminder of the darker side of fame.
On Sunday, during his vacation, Giovanni Pernice was seen without a shirt, basking in the sun while the Strictly Come Dancing conduct probe continues.
33-year-old dance specialist shared with his audience a peek into his sun-drenched vacation retreat, lounging on a boat with a glass of vino.
The celebrity from Strictly, wearing a cheerful expression, put on a pair of black swim shorts and a matching pair of sunglasses while enjoying some sunbathing to deepen his tan.
He showed off his tattoos in the shirtless snaps and captioned his post simply with: ‘September’.
The photographs suggest that the star made attempts to contact Amanda Abbington amidst BBC’s investigation into allegations of inappropriate behavior towards her off-set, on Strictly.
In 2023, for the 21st series of the lengthy BBC program, the actress, who was then 50 years old, was teamed up with an expert in Italian ballroom dancing. However, she unexpectedly left the competition after only five weeks.
Giovanni is currently on hold as an investigation by the BBC takes place regarding allegations of improper behavior outside the camera’s view, which have been raised by Amanda and two other previous celebrity dance partners of his.
In my expert opinion, not long after news broke about the investigation seeking their performance rehearsal footage, I personally reached out to Amanda – that’s me referring to myself – in an attempt to share some insights or advice, as one does when discussing lifestyle matters.
A source said: ‘Giovanni tried to call Amanda a few weeks ago. Nobody knows why.
Since she left the show, they haven’t exchanged words. So, it’s quite unusual that he would suddenly phone, more so considering a discussion was pending, seems rather peculiar, doesn’t it?
‘Amanda didn’t want to speak to him and blocked his number. She wants nothing to do with Giovanni.’
An inside source mentioned that Amanda disclosed to her group that Giovanni had attempted to reach out, which was then forwarded to the BBC officials overseeing the investigation.
Since Giovanni has not reached out to her following the incident, it appears that the producers of Strictly are choosing to focus on moving past the scandal.
A representative from the BBC stated previously that they would refrain from discussing specific individuals or indulging in conjecture.
TopMob has contacted representatives for Giovanni Pernice and Amanda Abbington for comment.
Previously, Amanda expressed that upon coming home from rehearsals with Giovanni, a beloved Strictly performer who had been on the show for eight years before his suspension, she would feel so emotional that she would both cry and be sick.
In an interview with The Times, Amanda shared that she’s been receiving threatening messages from enthusiasts of the Italian dancer, whose continued tenure on Strictly Comes Dancing is currently in question.
She said: ‘I’ve had the worst experience. The show was tough and horrible, but the aftermath of it I was not expecting. It’s been really brutal and it just hasn’t stopped.
In my experience, these past days have been incredibly challenging and overwhelming. I’ve found myself on the receiving end of harsh, unwarranted comments, including death and sexual assault threats, all for advocating for what I truly believed was unjust. It’s disheartening to encounter such hostility when simply standing up for one’s convictions.
I’ve been absolutely floored by the recent revelation that the BBC has already shelled out over a quarter of a million pounds in connection with this ongoing investigation! It was just last week when The Mail on Sunday spilled the beans about it.
Executives at the corporation are reportedly growing increasingly disgruntled due to the escalating costs associated with the investigation, a process that involves recruiting two ex-Metropolitan Police officers to question celebrities, dancers, and personnel from both past and current shows, as they delve into the accusations made against Amanda. However, it’s important to note that she strongly refutes these allegations.
According to insiders at the BBC, significant amounts were reportedly paid out for legal services from external firms and consultants in human resources, in addition to inquiries carried out by their internal team.
As well as the six-figure sum, the Corporation also faces a potential payout for compensation.
1) It’s been suggested that Amanda may pursue a settlement, while reports indicate that Giovanni is contemplating legal action against the BBC over claims of negligence in their supposed duty of care. (Paraphrased from your original sentence)
It came to light in May that she had asked Carter Ruck, a law firm based in London, to act on her behalf in a dispute with the BBC.
Since then, fellow dance partner Graziano Di Prima has been dismissed from the show, due to allegations of inappropriate conduct towards television personality Zara McDermott, who he danced with in 2023.
On Instagram, Graziano expressed remorse for the circumstances leading to his exit from Strictly. His strong drive and zeal to triumph may have influenced his training methods.
In adherence with the BBC’s personnel procedure, I feel it is necessary for the well-being of the program that I withdraw. I regret not being given the opportunity to provide a statement for the digital news articles, and I understand the complexity of this situation, taking it into account carefully.
‘There’s more to this story that I am unable to discuss at this time, but I am committed to being strong for my family and friends. I wish the Strictly family nothing but success in the future.’
