Writing in his native Italian, Giovanni wished a "buon San Valentino" to his girlfriend. The 27-year-old was seen planting a kiss on Jessica's cheek, while she took the selfie. The pair were first romantically linked back in November, when they were spotted enjoying a theatre date in the West End. Giovanni and 32-year-old Jessica – Mark Wright's older sister – watched a performance of Dreamgirls. The Strictly pro has previously brushed off rumours of a romance with a string of women, including his 59-year-old Strictly co-star Debbie McGee, and fellow choreographer Luba Mushtuk.

Mark was a celebrity contestant on the BBC One series in 2014, finishing in fourth place. Giovanni has previously dated his Strictly Come Dancing partner Georgia May Foote, while Jessica was in a relationship with former TOWIE co-star Ricky Rayment.
