Giovanni Pernice and Jowita Przystal have reportedly gone their separate ways after struggling to make their romance work due to “hectic work schedules”. In January, it was revealed Giovanni and Jowita had been “secretly dating” for several weeks following the final of Strictly, which saw Jowita lift the Glitterball trophy with cameraman Hamza Yassin.

The pair were snapped holding hands and looking every inch the happy couple, with onlookers noting they looked very comfortable in each other’s company, but it seems the budding relationship is already over.

“Giovanni and Jowita enjoyed a number of dates after the last series of Strictly and they got on really well,” a source close to the former couple has claimed.

“But as time has passed they have found it increasingly difficult to build on their relationship because of their hectic work schedules.”

Speaking to The Sun, the source shared how Giovanni is on tour for the next five months and the two Strictly professionals have struggled to find time for each other.

Jowita is currently on tour with Hamza and the rest of the Strictly gang, while Giovanni is keeping busy taking his own one-man show across the country.

Made in Italy, which began in January and runs until May – will be brought to a close at Tunbridge Wells Assembly Hall Theatre.

However, Giovanni and Jowita remain, good friends, despite their split and a source added it’s a “shame” things couldn’t be different.

Giovanni and Jowita all but confirmed their romance as they were papped for the first time leaving the Italian dancer’s home in Notting Hill after seemingly spending the night together at the start of this year.

Express.co.uk has contacted Giovanni Pernice and Jowita Przystal’s representatives for comment.

It comes after Jowita’s dance partner Hamza was reportedly unhappy after she hooked up with Giovanni.

The wildlife host was said to be “besotted” with the 28-year-old dancer.

After their win, Hamza was keen to take their relationship a step further, but she wanted to remain platonic, according to a source.

And a source told The Sun he was heartbroken when it revealed she was seeing fellow Strictly star Giovanni.

The source said: “Hamza and Jowita became very close and at times were quite touchy-feely.

“People would often see them sneak off together.

“Obviously their closeness really helped when it came to them winning the trophy

“But while Jowita thinks the world of him, she held back from anything romantic and kept him slightly at arm’s length.

“When it was clear she was involved with Giovanni, the reason for that became clear.

“But while Hamza wants her to be happy, he was quietly devastated.”

Giovanni and Jowita first sparked rumours they were more than friends when Strictly crew members reportedly caught the two dancers kissing backstage on the BBC show.

Back in 2021 Giovanni briefly dated Love Island beauty, Maura Higgins.

Meanwhile, Jowita and her ex Michael Danilczuk split last year. They shared a home together in Edgware, north London, but Michael is since believed to have moved to Wembley in the English capital.
