Dancer Giovanni Pernice was suspended while a probe is conducted over claims of off-camera misconduct made by his partner Amanda Abbington.
Debbie McGee has revealed she has been asked to give evidence in a BBC investigation into Strictly Come Dancing .
Debbie, who was partnered with Giovanni Pernice on the 2017 series, appeared on GB News on Thursday where she confirmed she had been asked to take part in the probe 'I had the most amazing time. Giovanni was my partner, and it's still a life changing experience. And at that time in my life as well, it was a year after Paul, my late husband, had died.
'And I think lots of people will be invited to give their experience of Strictly, so I just hope at the end of the day I don't want anyone to be bullied, I'm really against all of that, but we are all different.The TV star also spoke about her time on Strictly, saying she had an 'amazing time' and thinks the new series will be just as good despite the scandal
It has heaped further turmoil on Strictly, which is deemed to be the jewel in the Corporation's crown and is still watched by more than ten million people. A television source has previously told the Mail: 'This investigation is no longer just solely about Giovanni but other, more wider issues. The show has been going for 20 years and the whole veneer of Strictly is so sparkly and lovely, of course there will always be people who feel hard done by.
'It is all a big headache for the BBC, it is about to celebrate a massive milestone with its 20th anniversary.
