Amanda Abbington has sent a defiant message to Giovanni Pernice after he denied wrongdoing and called her a ‘mad bitch,’ saying, ‘Don’t make me show the world that disgusting video!’

Amanda Abbington appeared to hit back at her former Strictly partner Giovanni Pernice after he seemingly branded her a ‘mad woman’.

The actress, 50, sent a defiant message to the professional dancer as she stepped out wearing a hoodie which read: ‘you’re only as cool as you treat people.’

Amanda’s outing comes a day after the Italian native, 33, appeared to make a savage remark about his former dance partner during his live tour on Sunday.

Giovanni appeared at The Lowry, in Salford, hours after Amanda slammed him in a new interview where she called his behaviour ‘unnecessary and abusive’. Giovanni has strenuously denied all of the claims against him.

Speaking to the audience, he said: ‘Oh, I will be back, don’t you worry. Let’s see what this mad woman has got to say next’ [he did not name anyone].

The following day, Amanda stepped out wearing a jumper which encouraged kindness while arriving at theatre rehearsals in London.

Amanda quit the BBC series last year due to ‘personal reasons’ before reports surfaced saying she had demanded footage of her rehearsals after the experience in the competition left her with PTSD.

Giovanni was later suspended while a BBC probe is underway over claims of off-camera misconduct made by Amanda and two other former celebrity partners.

Over the weekend, in her first interview since quitting the show in October, Amanda broke her silence to claim Giovanni was ‘abusive’ to her.

Giovanni, who was appearing on stage with Anton Du Beke during their Together Live Tour, appeared to take a swipe at Amanda, The Mirror reports. MailOnline contacted Giovanni’s representative for comment.

Giovanni denied all accusations of abusive or threatening behaviour made by Amanda in her interview and has cooperated with the BBC.

Speaking to The Sun on Sunday, she said: ‘I found Giovanni’s behaviour unnecessary, abusive, cruel and mean. I couldn’t sit back and let him do that to other people.’

‘I had to think long and hard about making a complaint because I knew the backlash I would get. But I would not have been able to live with myself for future people going on that show.’

‘It’s insane what has happened to me, with the death threats and backlash. I know the BBC have known about his behaviour for years, people had complained about him and flagged his behaviour to producers in the past and nothing was done. It wasn’t an isolated experience with me. I should never ever have danced with him.’

Sources previously claimed Amanda, Ranvir Singh and Laura Whitmore had an ’emotional summit’ where they ‘compared notes’ about their time working with Giovanni on the show.

A spokesperson for Giovanni told MailOnline in response: ‘The BBC has shared allegations from the inquiry with Giovanni, who has cooperated fully.’

They added: ‘None of the allegations carried in the Sun on Sunday are included in any shape or form. Giovanni refutes these allegations and denies any accusations of abusive or threatening behaviour.

‘He has provided substantive evidence to the investigation and he remains fully confident of clearing his name.’

The BBC declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline but a spokesperson previously stated: ‘We will not be commenting on individuals or engaging with speculation.

‘However, as we have said previously we will always listen if people want to make us aware of something or raise it with us directly and we have appropriate procedures and processes in place to manage this.’

Giovanni is working with combative legal firm Schillings and is expected to put forward transcripts to prove he acted fairly.
