The dancer made the admission as he returned to screens alongside Strictly judge Anton Du Beke

Giovanni Pernice has opened up about the real reason he's a 'workaholic' after recently speaking out on his failed Strictly Come Dancing partnership with Amanda Abbington and being a 'perfectionist'.

During the first episode, as they arrived in Marbella they took a yacht ride, where the pair had a heart-to-heart. Opening up to Anton about why he works so hard, Giovanni said: "You know, I'm a workaholic as they say. It comes after the Italian dancer has been hitting the headlines after finally speaking about his early exit from Strictly last year. Giovanni, who has been a professional on the show since 2015, was paired with actress Amanda during the 2023 series but she shared her decision to quit just weeks into the competition. She pulled out of one of the live shows of the series, despite impressing with her moves, due to 'medical reasons'.

Neither has directly spoken out about what happened until now as Giovanni has said it is a "shame" that Amanda left the show early as he feels they could have "gone all the way".
