On Thursday (24 January), Giovanni shared the first snap of himself and girlfriend Ashley – a throwback from their recent sun-drenched holiday together in Miami.
In the photo, both are in swimming gear and wearing safety vests to protect them as they pose on a jet-ski in the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
Alongside the photo, where they both look blissfully happily, Giovanni joked: “On our way to Leeds.”

Many of Giovanni’s 244,000 Instagram followers commented on the happy holiday snap, with one saying: “Can’t believe they are together.”
Another described them as a “gorgeous couple”, while a third wrote: “You guys make a great couple.”
In reality, the pair are currently taking part in the Strictly Come Dancing Live tour, where Giovanni is paired with Faye Tozer and Ashley is partnered with Pasha Kovalev.
The pair reportedly fell in love during the last series of Strictly, but kept the romance a secret until recently.
While the fans didn’t necessarily fall in love with Ashley on the show, mainly due to criticism that she’d had prior dance training, Giovanni clearly fell hard.
Appearing on Lorraine earlier this month, Giovanni admitted he had spent Christmas and New Year with Ashley in Florida – along with Aljaz and his wife Janette Manrara.
Ashley also broke her silence on the new romance, when she recently told the Daily Mail: “Yes, we are seeing each other.
“And now the show is done we can spend a bit more time together. We’re getting to know each other, and it’s nice.”
But although she finally admitted the relationship was flourishing, she wouldn’t go into any details, claiming that it’s “early days”.
This week, the pair also shared an Insta-story of a date night, complete with candle-lit dinner and red emoji hearts.
