Giovanni Pernice is said to have no plans to leave Strictly Come Dancing, despite this year's series proving to be a disappointment for the Italian dancer.

His dance partner Amanda Abbington had to withdraw from the competition, leaving Giovanni out of the race for the Glitterball trophy this year, just two years after he was crowned champ alongside Rose Ayling-Ellis.

Adding to his woes, the Cardiff date of his solo tour was cancelled due to the sudden closure of the venue he was set to perform at.

Despite these recent setbacks, an insider says Giovanni is committed to supporting the rest of the Strictly family and has no plans to leave the show.
