Giovanni Pernice is reportedly contemplating his next steps following the BBC’s investigation into his conduct while partnering with Amanda Abbington on Strictly Come Dancing. The investigation upheld some of Abbington’s complaints regarding verbal bullying and harassment, although it cleared Pernice of any allegations of physical aggression.
Giovanni expressed relief over the findings, emphasizing that the report did not support claims of threatening behavior, which he views as a positive outcome.
Despite this, Abbington has hinted at potential legal action, stating that certain aspects of the situation remain unresolved.Giovanni, meanwhile, has been focusing on his future projects, including an upcoming tour with fellow Strictly judge Anton Du Beke.
The situation between them remains tense, with Giovanni feeling frustrated by the ongoing drama and the “mud-slinging” associated with it.
Giovanni Pernice recently shared his excitement about performing on Ballando Con Le Stelle, the Italian version of Strictly Come Dancing. With the picturesque backdrop of Rome, he expressed optimism about his partnership with actress Bianca Guaccero as they prepared for their second performance.
This positive momentum comes after the BBC’s investigation into Amanda Abbington’s allegations against him, where only six out of 17 complaints were upheld. Pernice was relieved that the most serious accusations were not supported, allowing him to look forward to new opportunities and move on from the controversy that led to his departure from this year’s Strictly lineup.
