Giovanni Pernice shares a steamy kiss with bikini-clad girlfriend Bianca Guaccero as they soak up the sun during holiday in Barbados

Daily Mail​21-05-2025

Giovanni Pernice put on a very loved-up display with his girlfriend Bianca Guaccero as they enjoyed a trip to the beach during their holiday in Barbados.
The former Strictly Come Dancing star, 34, shared a kiss with the Italian actress, 44, as they enjoyed their day at the Caribbean island's iconic Sandy Lane Hotel.
Professional dancer Giovanni cut a casual figure for the outing as he sported a white T-shirt and a pair of dark shorts.
Bianca showcased her jaw-dropping figure in a white bikini that highlighted her sun-kissed tan.
The pair were seen going for a dip in the sea before Bianca washed off in an outdoor shower.

The couple were the winning pair on the Italian version of the BBC show, Ballando con le Stelle, and Giovanni gushed that Bianca was 'was exactly what he needed' following the bombshell allegations made by Amanda Abbington.
And after revealing his 'world collapsed' when his friends abandoned him following the allegations, Giovanni explained how Bianca was 'very supportive'.
He told Heat magazine: 'She came into my life during not the greatest time, so I needed some security.
Giovanni revealed the pair have had to make 'sacrifices' to 'make their relationship work' as Bianca is currently busy working in Italy, where she is based, while the dancer prepares to tour the UK for the next seven months.
Last month, it was revealed that Giovanni will not be returning to Strictly Come Dancing despite hinting at a comeback and the findings of the BBC's misconduct report into his behaviour.
Revealing the cast of this year's Strictly Come Dancing which will air in August, Giovanni was notably absent from the list.
Dianne Buswell, Nadiya Bychkova, Amy Dowden, Karen Hauer, Katya Jones, Neil Jones, Nikita Kuzmin, Gorka Marquez, Luba Mushtuk and Jowita Przysta are among those returning to the dance floor this September.
They will be joined by Johannes Radebe, Aljaž Škorjanec Nancy Xu, Lauren Oakley, Michelle Tsiakkas and Vito Coppola who will all take to the floor once more alongside two new stars.
Carlos Gu and Kai Widdrington will be returning after not appearing in the 2024 edition.
In July last year, more than six months after Amanda quit Strictly citing 'personal reasons', the actress accused Giovanni of 'unnecessary, cruel and mean behaviour' during their time dancing together on Strictly.
Giovanni rejected the claims immediately and a BBC investigation ruled in September that her claims of physical aggression and threatening behaviour were not upheld.
Complaints of verbal bullying and harassment meant the BBC issued an apology but Giovanni said he was 'pleased the report has not found any evidence of threatening or abusive behaviour'.
Now cleared by the investigation and a dancer on the Italian version of Strictly, Giovanni will head out on tour again later in the year with best pal Anton Du Beke.
The pair confirmed their romance in November, with Bianca at the time claiming she had 'difficulty believing in true love' until she met him.
Bianca also declared that she had 'never felt as secure and loved' as she does with the dancer, who is almost 10 years her junior.
'After a long time, there is someone who takes care of me and cares about me,' Giovanni said.
'A woman like her has been missing from my life.'
'He's goofy and crazy, and that made me fall in love with him. It had been a long time since I felt happiness in my heart,' Bianca added.
When paired with Coronation Street actress Georgia May Foote, 34, in 2015 – Giovanni's first year on Strictly – they began dating.
He also found love with singer Ashley Roberts, 43, who appeared on Strictly in 2018 though they were not a pair – she danced with Pasha Kovalev.
He dated Love Island stunner Maura Higgins, 34, for four months in 2021, while in 2022, Giovanni was linked to fellow Strictly professional Jowita Przystal, 30.
Bianca split from her director husband Dario Acocella in 2017. The couple have a daughter called Alice.

Bastian Schweinsteiger kisses 'married' blonde woman on Mallorca beach trip – just weeks after high-profile relationship with former tennis world No 1 Ana Ivanovic ended

Bastian Schweinsteiger has been pictured kissing his new partner during an intimate trip to the beach in Mallorca after seemingly splitting from his wife, Ana Ivanovic. Photos and videos shared by German publication Bild show Schweinsteiger, 40, relaxing on the sand with the married woman, who is believed to be named Silva. According to the outlet, the mystery woman is from Bulgaria and has two sons, who attend the same school as Schweinsteiger and Ivanovic's eldest children. She does not live with her husband and is reported to have separated from him. 'They both looked happy and in love, they didn't take their hands off each other as they lay on towels on the sand. They were hugging and kissing,' a source told Bild. Schweinsteiger has reportedly already moved out of the family home he shared with Ivanovic and taken a romantic trip to Morocco with his new girlfriend. Bild allege Schweinsteiger's relationship with Silva began several months ago. In images posted on a Ukrainian website, Silva can be seen dressed in a fitness outfit on an exercise ball, in an article on exercises for women after pregnancy. The pictures of the beach trip were published earlier this week after it emerged that Schweinsteiger and Ivanovic, one of sport's ultimate power couples, had split. They tied the knot at a lavish ceremony in Venice in 2016 but Bild claim their relationship became strained due to them struggling to spend time together. Schweinsteiger regularly travels while Ivanovic remains with their children in her hometown of Belgrade. They have rarely been spotted together in public in recent months, making just a handful of appearances at events, including the Laver Cup. Their last Instagram post together came when they visited a Christmas market in Vienna in December, while a recent joint Instagram story, shared in early April, was confirmed as a pre-produced promotional video announcing a brand deal. After being contacted by Bild, Schweinsteiger's representatives said he and Ivanovic would not be commenting on private matters. Schweinsteiger and Ivanovic first met in New York in 2014 and the Germany legend got down on one knee to propose in a London park just a few months later. Their wedding took place in July 2016, with Ivanovic, who memorably won the French Open in 2008, then retiring from tennis in December 2016. Ivanovic gave birth to their first son in 2018, and had another baby boy the following year. The couple announced the arrival of their third son in May 2023. Their first two sons are named Luca and Leon, respectively, while the name of their third son has not been publicly confirmed. Ivanovic, meanwhile, put on a brave face despite the speculation as she posed for the cameras at the French Open at Roland Garros, Paris on Sunday evening.
