Strictly Come Dancing hunk Giovanni Pernice has admitted that he “don’t like blondes” just 24 hours after announcing his split with Pussycat Doll babe Ashley Roberts.
The professional dancer joined Made In Chelsea stars Jamie Laing and France Boulle on their podcast Private Parts to chat about the hit BBC One dancing show and seemingly made a sly dig at ex Ashley, 38.
The boys talked about the infamous Strictly curse and Jamie revealed that he’d been hanging around with Giovanni, 29, during a trip abroad.
Jamie joked: “We were f***ing on our trip to South Africa.”

Despite having only broken up with his Pussycat Doll girlfriend recently, Giovanni replied: “Can you imagine? That makes me feel sick.
“I don’t like blondes. He’s not my cup of tea. We met on Strictly when he got injured.”
Italian star Gio took to social media last night to announce his split with singer Ashley after one year of dating.
Taking to Instagram, the Strictly star penned: “Ash and I have made the decision to separate as a couple. We remain friends and wish each other well for the future.”

Blonde bombshell Ashley is yet to comment publicly on the end of her romance with Giovanni.
The pair met in 2018 when Ashley was a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing.
The duo was not paired up on the show but grew extremely close behind the scenes.
They tried to keep their romance under wraps for months before finally going official in December 2019 when they shared a kiss in Miami.

Giovanni has made it clear in the past that he does not believe in the Strictly curse and addressed his thoughts once again during his chat with Jamie and Frances.
He told the boys: “I don’t believe in the Strictly curse.
“It happens every day, it happens in the office. It can happen in the street. It can happen in the club.
“It is just two people when they find the chemistry between the two of them they are going to end up sleeping together.
“If you end sleeping with your partner it is because both of you have decided that you want to do that.”
