Rumours swirling in the Strictly Come Dancing camp concerning last year’s champion Giovanni Pernice have reportedly “raised eyebrows” among some of the show’s professional dancers.
The BBC competition is set to return to our screens next month, with celebrities including Will Mellor, Helen Skelton, Matt Goss and Fleur East all joining this year’s stellar line-up of contestants. While this year’s dance pairings are yet to be officially announced, reports have surfaced that suggest pro dancer Giovanni could be heading to the final once again, according to The Mirror .
It’s rumoured that Giovanni will be paired with TV and radio presenter Richie Anderson, who is set to follow in the footsteps of John Whaite who made it to last year’s final with pro Johannes Radebe as the first all-male couple in the show’s history. Despite Richie saying that his dance skills are comparable to “Bambi on ice”, some already believe that Richie and his partner will be as successful as John and Johannes.
