A BBC report into the claims that Strictly star Giovanni Pernice bullied his partner Amanda Abbington on the show will be released today.

The inquiry investigating what went on during training has been completed and is ready to be published.
The report comes just weeks after the new season kicked off without Giovanni.
The BBC began ‘evidence gathering’ soon after the allegations were made, which included claims from two other stars.
Giovanni, 33, was adamant he had a recording in which Amanda apologised for being a ‘nightmare’ in training.
Giovanni quit in May and has since started a new job on the Italian version of the show, it was announced last week.
A source told The Sun yesterday that the BBC plans to notify all sides of the outcome of the review ‘early next week’ but that only a few details are likely to be made public with the full report being sent to Amanda, Giovanni and their legal teams.
