Today, a BBC report will shed light on serious allegations made by actress Amanda Abbington against her partner Giovanni Pernice during their time on Strictly Come Dancing.
This comprehensive investigation has taken four months and aims to address the explosive claims made by Amanda, who is 50 years old.
She has openly criticized Giovanni’s teaching methods, labeling his behavior as “unnecessary, abusive, cruel, and mean.”
Giovanni, on the other hand, has vehemently denied all accusations.
Amanda’s Claims and the Show’s Atmosphere
In a recent interview, Amanda likened the atmosphere on Strictly to “the trenches,” expressing her belief that the show can be quite harsh.
During her conversation with Channel 4 News, she mentioned that BBC producers were reportedly “horrified” by footage that allegedly displayed what she described as “humiliating behavior of a sexual nature.”
The inquiry has now concluded, and the findings are ready for release, coinciding with the start of the new season—one that notably does not feature Giovanni.
Gathering Evidence and Reactions
Following Amanda’s allegations, the BBC commenced an “evidence gathering” process, which included statements from two additional cast members.
Giovanni, who is 33, has maintained his innocence and claims to possess a recording of Amanda apologizing for her conduct during rehearsals.
After resigning from Strictly in May, he recently accepted a position on the Italian version of the show, a development announced just last week.
Anticipation and Speculation About the Report
According to a source from The Sun, the BBC intends to inform all parties involved about the review’s findings early next week.
However, it’s expected that only a limited amount of information will be publicly shared; the complete report will be forwarded to Amanda, Giovanni, and their respective legal teams.
Although BBC executives are hopeful that this will help conclude the matter, insiders believe it’s unlikely that the controversy will be resolved quickly, with potential repercussions lingering for months.
Amanda’s Experience with Investigators
Interestingly, a source noted that during her initial interview, the investigators expressed full confidence in Amanda’s narrative.
However, as the inquiry progressed, she reportedly felt that both the investigators and others at the BBC began to question at least some of her claims.
This ongoing saga remains a developing story, and further updates are anticipated soon.
