Giovanni Pernice recently melted viewers' hearts when he and his former Strictly partner Rose Ayling-Ellis reunited in Italy.
Off-screen, however, his partnerships haven't run quite so smoothly, with the professional dancer rumoured to have recently split up with fellow champion Jowita Przystal after three months of dating.
In a new interview, the star opened up about why relationships can be "impossible".
Giovanni spoke to Spencer Matthews in a new interview on the Made In Chelsea star's podcast, Big Fish, addressing why so many dancers date each other.
He said: "When you’re in competition, it’s either you're in a relationship with your partner, because you spend most of your time with your partner, literally 24/7, and you travel with your partner. Or you're just single and enjoy your time around when you can.
"It's impossible sometimes, but that's the reason why most of the dance couples are together, because it’s either this or nothing. And they stop dancing, and they break up straight away."

He also candidly reflected on the fact that he won't be able to dance forever but hopes to carry on for as long as he can.
