Giovanni Pernice allegations
Meanwhile, reports have indicated the BBC investigation into conduct relating to Strictly may finish up in the next few days.
Amanda, who quit the 2023 series last October and later claimed to be suffering from PTSD, has complained about Giovanni’s behaviour.
She previously said: “I found Giovanni’s behaviour unnecessary, abusive, cruel and mean. I couldn’t sit back and let him do that to other people.
“I had to think long and hard about making a complaint because I knew the backlash I would get. But I would not have been able to live with myself for future people going on that show.”

A spokesperson for Giovanni told The Sun: “We are cooperating fully with the BBC’s review process. All parties have been asked to respect this process and to not speak to the media before it concludes.
“Giovanni refutes any claim of threatening or abusive behaviour, and having provided the BBC with his evidence, is confident that the review will prove this.”
The BBC added: “We will not be commenting on individuals or engaging in speculation.”
