Ashley Roberts says she's still looking for love after Giovanni Pernice split

Ashley Roberts has revealed she would love to meet someone to share her life with.

The gorgeous singer, 39, has been single since she split from Strictly Come Dancing professional Giovanni Pernice at the end of January 2020 after more than a year of dating.

And now, after being cooped up indoors during lockdown, she told The Sun that she was eager to get back out and about.

Speaking to the paper's Fabulous Magazine, she outlined the kind of partner she is hoping to meet - and they need to be the right balance between adventurous, supportive and independent.

She said: “I’ve been really good at being driven and taking care of myself, and I would like for someone to come in and support me.

"Not financially, and not that I need a man to take care of me, but I would like to share my life with someone whose company I enjoy and who supports me.

"But, then again, I’m really good on my own. So this is the thing, it’s finding someone to go on adventures with.

"I want to experience the world with someone that makes me laugh, but who also has the emotional intelligence to have an interesting conversation.”

Ashley, who presents the showbiz news on Heart Breakfast with Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden added: "It’s about finding a man that is welcoming to that independence, because I value that."

Last January, Giovanni, 30, announced the shock split in a tweet, writing: "@ImAshleyRoberts and I have made the decision to separate as a couple. We remain friends and wish each other well for the future."

The former couple first got together after meeting on Strictly in 2018.

They grew super close in rehearsals but kept their relationship a secret until after the show ended.

Ashley was paired with pro Pasha Kovalev, while Giovanni was teamed up with Steps star Faye Tozer.
