According to a source, a Strictly Come Dancing star is going through a tough time after private photos were leaked online. It's been a rough few weeks for the BBC show, with allegations emerging about Giovanni Pernice's behavior in the training room with his celebrity dance partners. An investigation has been launched, and Giovanni has made a statement denying any claims of abusive or threatening behavior, stating that he looks forward to clearing his name.
But the drama doesn't end there. The latest blow to the show involves another star who has allegedly fallen victim to a betrayal of trust. The source revealed to The Sun that the star is devastated and taking action to have the photos removed, but it's still a painful experience. "It's like there's another curse connected to the show," the source added, referring to previous incidents involving leaked photos of Strictly contestants.
In fact, it has been reported that Strictly producers warned contestants several years ago about the risk of explicit pictures and videos being leaked. In 2019, The Sun reported that contestants were advised to contact their ex-partners and take precautions against any embarrassing material being shared. "Everyone has a past, and in recent years, sexting has become more prevalent," a source explained. "It only takes one private photo or video to be shared, and the next thing you know, it's all over the internet."
As fans eagerly await the next series of Strictly, there's already speculation about which celebrities will be taking part. Rumored contestants include Mollie Pearce, star of The Traitors, comedian Chris McCausland, Ted Lasso actress Hannah Waddingham, and actress Nicola Peltz. But with all the drama surrounding leaked photos, it's understandable that the show's producers are hoping for a scandal-free series.
