Insiders claim that Strictly Come Dancing stars Giovanni Pernice and Jowita Pryzstal are 'inseparable' as dating speculation surrounding the pair heats up.
It's still been just a few weeks that Strictly newcomer Jowita lifted the Glitterball trophy, alongside Hamza Yassin, at the end of her first series of having a celebrity partner. Her win in the BBC ballroom came a year after rumoured new love interest Giovanni triumphed with ex EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis.
While his stay on Strictly last year proved to be a much more short-lived one, with Giovanni and One Show host Richie Anderson the second couple to be eliminated, he was still very much part of the show, being involved in the professional dancers' group numbers, including a memorable once which saw him dance with Jowita, as viewers picked up on their 'amazing chemistry.'

"Jowita, especially, wanted to keep things quiet so she could keep focused with Hamza, and not distract from the competition."
Neither Giovanni or Jowita have publicly addressing the claims about their rumoured romance but, on Tuesday, they were spotted leaving his London apartment within minutes of each other.
Giovanni headed off to This Morning to promote his upcoming tour Made in Italy, while Jowita headed off separately to a train station, as she counts down to joining Hamza and several other Strictly stars for the show's annual live arena tour.
