Giovanni Pernice has announced that he will compete in a new television show after leaving Strictly Come Dancing before the upcoming series.
In an Instagram post on Saturday, 7 September, Pernice told fans he will take part in “Italian Dancing With the Stars” Ballando con le stelle.
Pernice denies any wrongdoing.
The professional dancer, 34, has been involved in a behind-the-scenes scandal since Amanda Abbington complained to the BBC about his alleged conduct and “inappropriate” behaviour while being partnered with him on the dance competition in 2023.
