Strictly Come Dancing winner Rose Ayling-Ellis visited her pro dance partner Giovanni Pernice in his native Sicily recently and was introduced to his sister Angela.
The visit comes as romance rumours have surrounded the pair for months, with 27-year-old Rose said to have split from her boyfriend Samuel Arnold. It has been reported that Samuel has grown close to one of their friends.
They were together for seven years before going their separate ways and the split is said to be "very amicable".
