Hot Goss: Giovanni Pernice’s Romantic Timeline Unpacked
Who is Giovanni Pernice dating?
Since February 2024, Giovanni Pernice has been enjoying a romance with boxing ring girl Molly Brown. The pair went Instagram official with a loved-up selfie and have been smitten ever since. A source told The Mirror back in February 2024: “Giovanni and Molly met a few weeks ago, and though it is very early days, things seem to be going well between them.” He has been keeping things quiet because he didn’t want too much pressure on as they’re getting to know each other.
Who has Giovanni Pernice dated?
Jowita Przystal
Gio split from fellow pro dancer Jowita Przystal in March 2023. Pals revealed how the pair chose to end their relationship after falling for one another during the 2022 of the Strictly. Giovanni and Jowita enjoyed a number of dates after the last series of Strictly and they got on really well. But as time has passed they have found it increasingly difficult to build on their relationship because of their hectic work schedules. Although their relationship has ended Giovanni and Jowita said they will stay good friends. It is just a shame they couldn’t make it work.
Maura Higgins
Giovanni secretly dated Love Island star Maura Higgins for weeks before going public in July 2021. But the pair called time on their romance four months later. They had a series of heart-to-heart talks, during which the dancer admitted he “wasn’t ready to settle down.” A source told Central Recorder at the time: “Maura didn’t see this coming and is finding it very difficult to come to terms with. She genuinely thought Gio was the one.”
Ashley Roberts
Giovanni also enjoyed a romance with Pussycat Dolls star Ashley Roberts. They met after she took part in Strictly back in 2018. They went on to date for a year, before calling time on their romance in January 2020.
Jess Wright
Giovanni met Jessica Wright through her brother Mark Wright when he was on Strictly in 2017. But after posting a series of loved up snaps on social media, they parted ways six months later. At the time sources claimed Giovanni was struggling to cope with Jess’ level of fame. But their break-up appeared to turn bitter when the pair were spotted rowing at the Pride of Britain awards in 2018. Jess later insisted their argument was just “passion” and that the couple hadn’t seen each other since their split.
Katie McGlynn
Ex Coronation Street actress Katie McGlynn was romantically linked to the Italian stallion in 2017. The TV star has always played down the romance and previously told Central Recorder: “They were trying to make it look like I was trying to have her boyfriend and I really wasn’t, even though they weren’t together any more, just because he’d dated another Corrie actress at some point.
Georgia May Foote
Giovanni started dating Georgia in 2015 after they were paired together on Strictly Come Dancing. When she joined the show she was dating Coronation Street co-star Sean Ward but they split just before she made the final. Giovanni confirmed their romance after the show ended and the pair posted a series of loved-up snaps. At the time Georgia told the Daily Mail: “Gio is everything to me. I’m 100 per cent happy with Gio. He’s smitten and I’m the same. We trust each other. We fell in love as friends before anything happened.”
Does Giovanni Pernice have children?
As of 2024, Giovanni doesn’t have any children. Speaking on Anton and Giovanni’s Adventures In Sicily, he shared that he does want a family one day – but needs to find the right person first. Speaking to Anton Du Beke he said: “My mum asks me questions constantly, ‘Giovanni what is the situation?’ Because every time I date a girl I always tell her and say “What do you think about this? What do you think about her?” She always asks, ‘Is she The One? You know I want a baby before I pass away? Of course, I want a family one day. You just have to find the right person first.”
