Strictly’s Jowita recalls instant Hamza connection - amid Giovanni romance
Strictly Come Dancing star Hamza Yassin has gushed about his professional dance partner Jowita Przystal ahead of their stint on the show’s nationwide tour.
The 32-year-old is fresh off the back of a roaring Strictly success in the 2022 series, which saw him raise the Glitterball trophy alongside Jowita.
However, Hamza has reportedly been left 'brokenhearted' by Jowita after it was revealed she is dating fellow Strictly pro Giovanni Pernice, who it appears Hamza unfollowed on social media.
The pair gave their first television interview since news of Jowita’s romance with her Italian co-star on BBC One’s The One Show on Tuesday evening.
As they reflected on their success, Jowita and Hamza gushed about one another on the sofa.

Jowita recalled the instant connection they first felt when they met ahead of the show’s autumn role.
She said: “This is not about me. This is all about Hamza. Meeting him for the first time, I knew straight away.
“I could feel that in my bones. I was already picturing what we could do on the show – he didn’t know that.

It appears Hamza could have fallen for his professional dancing partner whilst the pair spent hours in rehearsals.
Hamza was described as being ‘besotted’ with his 28-year-old dancing partner as they competed on the BBC show.
However, Jowita has been secretly dating professional dancer and 2021 winner Giovanni Pernice as the loved-up couple were pictured kissing backstage.

A source told The Sun: “Hamza and Jowita became very close and at times were quite touchy-feely. People would often see them sneak off together.
