Giovanni Pernice, known for his role in Strictly Come Dancing, recently took to Instagram to address the ongoing controversy involving his former dance partner, Amanda Abbington. Amidst claims from Abbington, the 51-year-old actress, that her time on the show caused her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Pernice has finally spoken out.
Abbington has been vocal about her struggles following her participation in the show and is reportedly seeking legal counsel over Giovanni’s alleged conduct during their time together. She believes that rehearsal footage could support her allegations against Pernice.
In his Instagram message, Giovanni expressed his gratitude towards his fans for their continuous support during these challenging times. He emphasized his focus on his upcoming show ‘LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU,’ which is set to open in a week. Pernice’s post read, “I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has sent messages of support over the last week – I really truly appreciate it – thank you thank you thank you Gio.”
The dancer’s post received an outpouring of supportive messages, with one fan commenting, “I think you’re amazing and well done, stay strong and positive.” Another supporter added, “Love you Gio, you’re a professional dancer for Christ’s sake, it’s your job. Take no notice.
