Giovanni Pernice hints at Strictly Come Dancing return amid bullying investigation clearance


Strictly Come Dancing professional Giovanni Pernice has been keeping a fairly low profile since he was axed from the BBC show following bullying claims made by Amanda Abbington

Giovanni, who faced turbulence off-stage with bullying allegations leading to a BBC scrutiny earlier this year, was held accountable for six out of the 16 complaints filed against him, though he managed to dance clear of 10. Beyond the glitterball world, Giovanni has opened up about a thrilling theatre tour with his good friend and Strictly legend, Anton Du Beke, named The Last Dance, scheduled to kick off in January and waltzing all the way through May. The BBC's investigation into the allegations against Giovanni Pernice found no evidence of violence, physical abuse, intimidating behaviour, or threats, ultimately clearing him of any wrongdoing.
