In the images, obtained by The Sun, the dancers were seen holding hands while “heading home after a date in West London”.
Giovanni, 32, and Jowita, 28, were wearing casual clothes as he sported a hoodie, tracksuit bottoms and trainers.
Meanwhile, 2022 Strictly winner Jowita wore an all-black outfit with her brunette hair styled in a relaxed ponytail.
A source reportedly told the publication that the pair “seemed to be very much a couple”.
They said: “They seemed to be very much a couple, they were holding hands and talking to each other very closely as they walked. From their casual clothes, it didn’t seem to be a first date either.
“They looked very happy and comfortable in each other’s company.”
ED! has contacted reps for Giovanni and Jowita for comment.
Rumours began circulating last year following reports that Giovanni and Jowita were dating.
Are Giovanni and Jowita dating?
Last month, reports claimed that the pro dancers’ romance is the show’s “worst-kept secret”.
An insider told The Sun: “She and Gio are the worst-kept secret, but make a great couple.
They looked very happy and comfortable in each other’s company.
“While they both kept insisting they were single, the pair’s chemistry was ridiculous — and they kept getting busted snogging in corridors. Crew even saw them kissing in the production office.”
Jowita, who won Strictly with Hamza Yassin last year, reportedly split from her boyfriend and fellow dancer Michael Daniczuk ahead of rehearsals for the 2022 series.
Meanwhile, reports then claimed that Hamza was secretly “devastated” by Jowita and Giovanni’s romance.
However, during an appearance on The One Show recently, Jowita and Hamza gushed over their friendship.

Hamza said: “You were fantastic, at bringing everything out, knowing my strengths and weaknesses.”
Jowita added: “I still can’t believe it, to be honest, it’s not about me, it’s all about Hamza. Meeting him at the lighthouse, I felt in my bones it was going to be great.”
