Nicola Roberts 'has been eyed' for new series of Strictly Come Dancing' after Christmas special success with under-fire pro Giovanni Pernice


The singer, 38, is said to be in talks to star in the new series of Strictly Come Dancing after Christmas special success with under-fire pro Giovanni Pernice.

But if the singer is set to head for the dancefloor after the tour, she won't be dancing with Giovanni, 33, as he announced his departure last month amid the BBC probe into serious workplace misconduct claims. It was confirmed three women, including Amanda Abbington, had hired £700-an-hour lawyers at leading London law firm Carter Ruck to pursue claims against Giovanni and the BBC. The BBC have launched an investigation after the dancer was accused of 'threatening and abusive behaviour' while working with Amanda, 52, Good Morning Britain presenter Ranvir Singh, 46, and former Love Island host Laura Whitmore, 39, on the show - something which he vehemently denies.
