Strictly's Giovanni Pernice's new girlfriend Molly Brown posts hunky poolside snap
Strictly Come Dancing heartthrob Giovanni Pernice has once again sent pulses racing as his new flame, Molly Brown, shared a steamy poolside snapshot of the Italian dancer.
In the photo posted by Molly, Giovanni is basking in the sun, hands casually tucked into his swim shorts pockets, with his sculpted abs glistening against a backdrop of swaying palm trees.
Molly also posted a glamorous mirror selfie from the bathroom wearing a gold dress, chain belt and her blonde tresses in a half-up-half-down style.
The couple's romance first sparked headlines back in February when they were spotted enjoying a cosy date night in matching black ensembles at a glamorous restaurant.
Giovanni further fueled speculation of their blossoming relationship by sharing a photo on his Instagram Stories, affectionately captioned with the words "Amore Mio," translating to "my love."
However, their relationship encountered a bump in the road just weeks later in March when the photo mysteriously disappeared, and both Molly and Giovanni unfollowed each other on social media, leaving fans puzzled about the status of their romance.
But things took another unexpected spin when the couple were forced to deny that they had got engaged after the pair were spotted leaving the London Palladium on Sunday evening, where Giovanni is starring in his Let Me Entertain You show and Molly was seen sporting a ring.
It lead to whispers that Italian dancer Giovanni may have proposed just one month after the couple decided to end their romance, but Giovanni's management told OK!: "This is definitely not true".
The Strictly pro recently wished Molly a happy birthday by dedicating a special social media post to her. But the message quickly sparked confusion amongst his eagle-eyed fans who managed to figure out his coded nickname for Molly.
Giovanni wrote: "Happy bday to my beautiful!! TMABWAW I love you!" - alongside a prince emoji and a string of heart emojis. Molly then replied to Giovanni's sweet post with a similar cryptic nickname, adding: "Love of my life. Thank you baby, TMABW."
The acronyms left fans confused, although some believe they have worked out the code.
They believe Gio's nickname for Molly stands for 'the most beautiful woman in the world' and Molly's for Gio is 'the most amazing boy in the world'.
But some were left confused, with one user questioning in the comments: "T M A B W A W?"
Before finding love with Molly, Giovanni's romantic history has been a subject of fascination among fans, with the Italian stallion reportedly dating fellow Strictly star Jowita Przystal following her triumphant win on the 2022 series alongside Hamza Yassin.
Prior to that, Giovanni's dating life made headlines with his high-profile relationships, including Love Island's Maura Higgins and Pussycat Dolls sensation Ashley Roberts.
He has also been romantically linked with former dance partners Georgia May Foote and Jessica Wright, showcasing his undeniable appeal both on and off the dance floor.
