BBC facing intense backlash over Giovanni Pernice’s Strictly exit: ‘Shame on you � huge mistake!’

The 2024 Strictly Come Dancing presenters, judges and pros have been confirmed and one name not on the list is Giovanni Pernice.

It’s been widely reported that the Italian dancer walked away from the show after a number of allegations were levelled at him by former partners.

The BBC is in the middle of a probe into his alleged behaviour, with Giovanni vowing to clear his name. However, as he does so, sadly for fans of the embattled pro, we won’t see him tripping the light fantastic on the Strictly dancefloor.
