Strictly star Amanda Abbington shows off new tattoo
In a story shared with her 137k followers, Amanda revealed her new tattoo yesterday (Monday, January 31).
Amanda’s new tattoo is the words “52 Blue”. However, she hasn’t elaborated any further on what it means.

Amanda then reshared the story on her own, along with two praying emojis and a love heart emoji.
Strictly star Giovanni’s four-word response amid Amanda Abbington claims
Meanwhile, in the other camp, Giovanni broke his silence on Amanda’s claims in an interview on The One Show.
“I’m definitely a perfectionist,” Giovanni told Ronan Keating and Alex Jones.
“Like everybody else, I like to win. But for me, it’s more about bringing the best out of partners, especially if I see that there is talent there. I want to do my job properly,” he then said.
“I think everybody else really, if you’re a presenter etc. – you train all your life to be the best. When you’re on Strictly, you’ve only got one week – you’ve got four days to create a new dance.
“You have to try to teach the technique, all the interviews to do. It’s a tough job,” he then added.
Amanda’s partner makes cryptic dig
Elsewhere, Amanda’s partner, Jonathan Goodwin, shared a cryptic message on Instagram amid the ongoing Giovanni drama.
The 43-year-old shared a video of a Taylor Swift video on his story, in which the pop star discusses how women are expected to “absorb male behaviour silently”.
“The most rage-provoking of being a female is the gaslighting that happens when you know for centuries we’ve just been expected to absorb male behaviour silently right?” Taylor says.
“Silent absorption of whatever any guy decides to do and often times when in our enlightened state and our emboldened state we now respond to bad male behaviour, or somebody just doing something that was out of line and we respond, that response is treated like the offence itself,” she then adds.
Jonathan simply captioned the post with “This…”.
