Strictly Come Dancing's Giovanni declares 'love' for co-star after posting heartfelt message

Strictly star Giovanni Pernice has thanked fans for their support in a post on Instagram about moving to the UK.

The professional dancer moved to London from Italy eight years ago and has been a series regular ever since. Since appearing on the BBC show, he has reached the final four times, first with former EastEnders star Georgia May Foote in 2015.

In 2017 and 2018 he narrowly missed out on the top spot after being partnered with Debbie McGee and Faye Tozer respectively. And in 2021, he took home the famous glitterball trophy with another EastEnders star, Rose Ayling-Ellis, the first deaf conestant in the show's history.
