Amanda Abbington, known for her role in Sherlock, has recently been in the spotlight due to her complaints about her former dance partner, Giovanni Pernice. The BBC has been conducting an investigation into her allegations, and according to sources, Amanda is not pleased with the way things have been handled.
Last year, Amanda abruptly quit Strictly Come Dancing and later made claims against Giovanni, who is 33 years old. The BBC launched a probe into Giovanni's behavior, but he has denied any wrongdoing. However, it seems that Amanda may have provided more evidence to support her claims, causing Giovanni to be on the verge of being cleared.
Reports say that Amanda is very angry with the probe and feels that the women who have come forward with similar stories are being ignored. Her friend stated that she is deeply disappointed with the BBC and feels like it's a "boys' club." Amanda believes that the investigation is taking too long and that Giovanni is being protected by the BBC, while her and other women's experiences are being disregarded.
Another source claims that Amanda feels like her claims were not taken seriously, despite initial support from investigators. She is feeling tired, upset, and angry with the way everything is being handled. She also worries that there will be a cover-up and that other women will continue to suffer from aggression and abuse.
The BBC has not commented on the situation, stating that they will not address individual cases. Amanda gave an emotional interview earlier this year, where she claimed that she was being blocked from accessing footage of her rehearsals with Giovanni, which she described as "toxic." She also called Giovanni "nasty" and accused him of exhibiting bullying behavior during their time on the show.
During the interview, the interviewer mentioned hearing from someone else that Amanda had experienced humiliating sexual behavior. She confirmed this, wiping away tears as she spoke. The BBC's investigation report is expected to be released soon.
Since his time on Strictly Come Dancing, Giovanni has signed up for a new show in Italy called Ballando con le Stelle. His representative has denied any claims of threatening or abusive behavior and is confident that the investigation will prove this. They urge people to wait for the conclusion of the review and not to believe these defamatory allegations without evidence.
The Agency has reached out to the BBC, Amanda, and Giovanni's representatives for comment. If you have a story to share, you can reach out to the entertainment team by email, phone, or by visiting their website.
