STRICTLY Come Dancing star Giovanni Pernice looked downcast when he was spotted after Amanda Abbington quit the show.<\/p>\n
The professional dancer was unceremoniously snubbed in a cryptic departure statement from the Sherlock actress. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
At the start of Strictly, he was initially partnered up with the Mr Selfridge actor. <\/p>\n
They achieved some success together as she was given a score of 31 out of 40 for her American Smooth.<\/p>\n
However, Amanda, 51, sensationally left the BBC primetime dancing competition.<\/p>\n
Giovanni, 33, has since been spotted out for the first time since the news was revealed.<\/p>\n
He looked downcast as he hid his face, dressed in an Adidas puffer coat as he attempted to go incognito.<\/p>\n The dancer and choreographer was very much focused on his mobile phone and he blocked out the noise with white wired earphones. <\/p>\n He also carried a large black leather rucksack as he jumped on an e scooter to whisk him off to a mysterious location.<\/p>\n This comes amid a rumoured rift at the heart of his partnership with Amanda that has been circulating for the past few weeks.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n She was initially given a bye as she missed week five due to an undisclosed medical reason, as bosses hoped for her return. <\/p>\n But it was later confirmed by a BBC spokesperson that the star had chosen to leave the competition. <\/p>\n In Amanda's statement on Instagram, fans noticed she did not mention her professional partner after it was reported he had a 'militant' attitude.<\/p>\n Alongside a snap of her gold dancing shoes, the TV star wrote a long essay in the caption, where she says she left the competition "due to personal reasons". <\/p>\n She said: "It is with deepest regret that I had to leave Strictly. I did not come to this decision easily or lightly but for personal reasons I am unable to continue. <\/p>\n "It was an absolute joy working with my fellow contestants, they are a beautiful, hardworking and talented group of people who I love and who I will miss seeing every Friday and Saturday and competing alongside. <\/p>\n "I want to thank the incredible Production team and everyone on Strictly who looked after me and who are so kind and caring. It\u2019s a wonderful bunch of people and I\u2019ll miss all of them."<\/p>\n She added: "I\u2019m so sad that I am unable to go any further. Thank you to everyone who voted and who sent wonderful messages and inspiring support. <\/p>\n "You are all amazing. Truly. Thank you. xxx"<\/p>\n<\/picture>MUM SHAME <\/span><\/p>\n
