Strictly Come Dancing fans spot 'bust up' between Giovanni Pernice and Graziano di Prima as credits roll on final

Eagle-eyed BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans believe they spotted on-air "bust up" between Giovanni Pernice and Graziano di Prima. Fans spotted the pair of professional dancers in tense conversation as Hamza Yassin picked up the Glitterball Trophy on Saturday night.

Strictly Come Dancing fans voted Hamza and Jowita to win the final, with Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez missing out. And some fans thought Giovanni, close pals with Gorka, was upset that his pal didn't win, reported Birmingham Live.

At the end of the episode, the two pros broke away from the crowd and looked animated. On social media, Strictly fan Dale Pritchard asked: "Could be me but did anyone see towards the end of strictly tonight something strange going on between Giovanni & Graziano?"

And Shiv asked: “Anyone else see Giovanni & Graziano at the end of Strictly?" They added: "Looked like they were having a disagreement of some sort!!!"

“Yes what happened there? Think Gio was mad that Gorka didn’t win,” added Rosie Hawkins.

As he won, an emotional Hamza said: "It's hard to describe how I feel. . . Jowita, you are an angel disguised as a human being."

Jowita Przystal said that Hamza came into the show with "pigeon toes" and she was honoured to help him win. Court wrote: "I just can’t believe that little Jowita, who started out auditioning for a dance show, won it and performed on Strictly as her prize. She was then THAT good she was asked as a pro and now her first year with a partner she WON that show. SO proud of her."

Shane laughed: "The only thing better than Motsi on Strictly is Motsi on the Strictly final. A contestant could come out, drop their partner, throw up on Tess and break both their legs and she'd still cry and give them a ten." But Ali said: "All the pro dancers will have been devastated! That is a poor result. What a waste of time! I hate it when a final judgement is just WRONG!"

Giovanni did appear on Twitter as the debate raged, but appeared to completely ignore the speculation, sharing instead a cancer video appeal. Graziano's last post on Twitter was on December 2 when he thanked fans for their support of him and Kym Marsh.
