According to the celebrity gossip mill, Giovanni has been liking Emily’s Instagram photos and messaging her on the social media app although there are conflicting reports about whether the feeling is mutual.

It’s thought that Jess and Giovanni split last month all because he couldn’t handle her fame with a source speaking to The Sun about the break up:

“He was really into Jess and did want to make a go of it, but he struggled with the attention she gets and her popularity.

“They’ve tried to keep things amicable and told people they have both agreed to go their separate ways, but he was the one who first suggested things were going to end.

“She has been really upset by this. It’s a real shame but hopefully things will stay civil”.

To make things even more confusing because why not, Emily was romantically linked to Chris Hughes, from Love Island 2017 yes, a few weeks ago.

As if it wasn’t complicated enough too, Chris was also said to be getting close to Georgia May Foote, a former Coronation Street actress who used to go out with Giovanni.

Take a breath.

Giovanni and Georgia met on the 2015 series of Strictly when they were partnered together. They started dating soon after and split up the following year.
