Giovanni Pernice has issued a new defiant statement as the investigation continues (Image: BBC) Giovanni Pernice has shared a new defiant post about "clearing" his name as the BBC continue to look into complaints about his teaching methods by three of his ex Strictly Come Dancing partners. Taking to his Instagram in the early hours of Sunday morning, the 33-year-old broke his grid silence for the first time in 11 days to confirm he is co-operating with the investigation. He shared: "To my fans and followers, every week, there are totally untrue stories about me in the media.
As you know, I have always rejected any suggestion of abusive or threatening behaviour. "The latest accusations are simply false. I am cooperating fully with the ongoing BBC investigation, which will determine the truth.
As requested, I have stayed silent, but I am looking forward to the conclusion of the investigation and ultimately clearing my name and establishing the truth." Giovanni said despite the accusations, he is "so happy to be back on tour". He concluded: "Thank you all for your continued support – you messages and love mean so very much to me.
I will hopefully see many of you very soon and I look forward to clearing my name. With love, Giovanni." Read More.
