Whoever gets Giovanni on Strictly is a lucky lady

At just 5ft 1in, Georgia May Foote may not be the tallest girl in the room, but when Now meets her for a shoot in a Buckinghamshire country mansion she’s certainly what you’d call a firecracker. The former Coronation Street star, 25, knows what she wants from life – and what she doesn’t. The latter includes talking about her boyfriend, professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, who she was paired with on Strictly last year.

Georgia was in a relationship with her Corrie co-star Sean Ward at the time, but the relationship broke down during the show. In January, the nation cooed as Giovanni and Georgia – whose chemistry on the Strictly dance floor made them runners-up – announced they were an item. Although her rep tells us off for asking about Giovanni,25, Georgia does concede the next girl to partner with him on the show will be ‘very lucky’.

Diminutive and as delicate as a china doll, Georgia’s totally professional, relaxed and chatty about bodies, showbiz parties and why Strictly needs a shake-up. But that tigress comes out again when we ask if she wants to be the next Michelle Keegan…

Len Goodman’s leaving Strictly after this series and the show’s in for a massive shake-up. What do you think about that? 

I know! I’ve no idea who they’ll bring in, but maybe it’s time for a woman. I understand why Len left though – all the travelling around gets really tiring. He’s anabsolute legend and we’ll always remember him as a huge part of the show.

Who do you want to be brought in as the new head judge?
