Must read

UNDER-fire dancer Giovanni Pernice is living la dolce vita on a sunny Portuguese island amid his Strictly “misconduct” storm.

The Italian, 33, looked relaxed as he puffed a cig while at a bar with girlfriend Molly Brown, 24, and two pals yesterday.

After leaving, the couple held hands before sharing a passionate kiss in the sunshine.

When asked if he felt sad about leaving the BBC dance show or the investigation, Giovanni – in a white top, shorts and sunglasses – told The Sun on Sunday: “You won’t get any quotes from me, sorry.

“I’m on holiday right now.

“I’m not gonna give any comments.

“Enjoy your travel back. Ciao, mate.”

Giovanni was also spotted cruising along the beautiful coast of Madeira in a Mini Cooper convertible with blonde Molly by his side on Friday.

The pair had snaps taken to capture their getaway – which comes days after a jaunt to Dubai, where they stayed in the £2,500-a-night Atlantis The Royal hotel.

They have been staying at a modern three-storey villa high in the hills of Madeira, with stunning views of the coast below.

There, Giovanni and Molly have been spotted diving in the swimming pool, enjoying a barbecue and toasting their trip with champagne on Friday – just hours after news broke that three of Giovanni’s former dance partners made “serious complaints” about his behaviour.

An onlooker said: “Gio seems to be having the time of his life with his beautiful girlfriend by his side.

“They haven’t been able to keep their hands off each other.

“At one point, Gio and Molly were drinking glasses of champers and having plenty of pictures taken to capture their romantic break.

“Strictly and the BBC probe seem to be the last things on his mind at the moment.”
