Amanda Abbington hits back at Strictly’s Giovanni Pernice’s ‘delusional’ claims after new interviews


Amanda Abbington has hit back at Giovanni Pernice after he gave his first TV interview about the 'concerning' allegations made against him by his former Strictly partner

The 34 year old Strictly Come Dancing star appeared on Lorraine this morning, where he addressed the actress's "concerning" allegations for the first time since the BBC investigation's findings were made public. Sherlock actress Amanda made allegations against the Italian dancer earlier this year, claiming she was subject to a “toxic environment” and “inappropriate, mean, nasty bullying”. Giovanni shared with Christine Lampard why he chose today to break his silence, divulging: "It's the right time to do so," and revealing that both he and Amanda were requested to keep the matter under wraps during the investigation to maintain confidentiality and professionalism.
