Giovanni Pernice confirmed his developing connection with fellow dancer Jowita Pryzstal and that he was open to having children.
The 32-year-old Strictly Come Dancing pro has been a regular on the show since 2015, and he just announced his relationship with Jowita, a 28-year-old dancer who made her Strictly debut in 2021.
Recently, Giovanni—known for his propensity to sleep with everyone walks through the door—has admitted that he can picture himself as a parent but is waiting for the “perfect person” to join his life before he settles down with them.
He told the professional dancer that his mom always asked about the baby news.
During an interview with Anton Du Becke, 51, for an upcoming edition of Anton and Giovanni’s Adventures in Sicily, he spoke up about his feelings on the topic.
Over s’mores, the two discussed life’s most weighty moments.
‘My mum asks me questions constantly, “Giovanni what is the situation?”’, Giovanni told Anton.
He continued: ‘Because every time I date a girl I always tell her and say ‘What do you think about this? What do you think about her?”
‘She always asks, “Is she The One. You know I want a baby before I pass away?”. Of course, I want a family one day. You just have to find the right person first.’
Although the famous pro claimed to want to meet his match, he prioritised his job above all else. There is a fine line about wanting to be in a relationship and be with somebody because you get lonely.’
His statements came after he had been linked to a number of famous women, including Maura Higgins, Jess Wright, Ashley Roberts, and Georgia May Foote.
The Strictly dancers revealed their relationship earlier this month by publicly showing affection and holding hands.
The charismatic Italian and his leading woman were all smitten as they walked home from a romantic dinner in London.
Giovanni dressed in a semi-casual manner for a night on the town, opting for a dark coat, light trousers, and a grey hooded top.
The man reportedly waited outside the restaurant for his date to arrive before rushing her inside, where they reportedly spent more than two hours eating and conversing.
After a backstage witness allegedly saw Jowita and Giovanni kissing during filming for the hit BBC talent show, speculation of a romantic relationship between the two began to circulate.
