Former Strictly contestant's Ellie Leach and Ellie Simmonds have become the latest stars to 'snub' Giovanni Pernice amid a probe into his workplace conduct.

And now Leach, 23, and Simmonds, 29, have reportedly unfollowed the Italian dancer after he rejected any allegations of 'threatening and abusive' behaviour. It was believed Giovanni was still on good terms with Rose, who he won Strictly Come Dancing with in 2021. The news will no doubt come as a surprise to Giovanni, who had a positive relationship with the deaf contestant Rose, 29, whom he led to victory in 2021, with the pair going on to win a TV BAFTA for their silent dance routine.
