Laura Whitmore has revealed she has spoken to BBC amid the Strictly Come Dancing scandal.
The TV presenter appeared on the BBC show back in 2016 – and was partnered with dancer Giovanni Pernice. Recently, Giovanni has been embroiled in an ongoing investigation over his alleged behaviour on the BBC One show.
Actress Amanda Abbington accused Giovanni of ‘bullying’ when they were partnered in the 2023 series – allegations he’s denied.
Now, Giovanni’s former celebrity partner Laura has now shared a statement amid the scandal.

Laura took to her Instagram on Saturday (July 27) to “set the record straight” about her Strictly experience – and shared how during her stint she had experienced things that were “wrong” whilst in the rehearsal room.
The TV star also claimed she has since been called in by the BBC to assist with its ongoing investigation.
She wrote: “I was trying not to comment on recent press speculation until the BBC review is complete but feel there is a lot of misinformation in the press and I want to help and show support.”
