Anton answered: "Once you get a family, you will be doing it all the time."
He previously discussed his single lifeGiovanni then admitted: "My mum always says to me: 'So, Giovanni, what's the situation?' because obviously every time I date a girl, I always tell her and say 'What do you think about this?'
"Bless her, she's seen so many passing by. But initially, she's like: 'Is she the one? You know, I want a baby before I pass way!' It's all the time, constantly, it's funny."

The Strictly hunk went on: "Of course I'll have a family one day, you just have to find the right person first. Personally, I am just very focused on my career as you were at my age.
"It does get lonely sometimes, it's a tricky thing between – there's a line, a fine line, between: 'I want to be in a relationship and be with somebody because you get lonely'.
"But at the same time, you want to be free to be able to focus on your career. And also, this industry, quite tricky, as you know, because you always have to be focused."
