GIOVANNI Pernice’s ex-girlfriend has had talks over joining Love Island to find new romance.
Boxing ring girl Molly Brown, 26, dated the ex-Strictly Come Dancing pro for several months last year during his bullying scandal.

Molly began dating Gio in February 2024 but their romance only lasted until July[/caption]
It did not last so ITV2 bosses approached the model for this series.
A source said: “TV execs love a famous ex and the chance for Molly to spill the beans on the biggest scandal for their rival channel the BBC was very tempting.
“She could feature later in the series if show action allows, but ITV do speak to hundreds of singles every year to ensure there’s a wide cast ready for every storyline.”
Molly began dating Gio, 34, in February 2024.
They split after three weeks, got back together and dated until July when the drama around Amanda Abbington’s allegations grew too much for the couple.
Giovanni is now dating actress Bianca Guaccero.
The pair met on the Italian version of Strictly, and recently shared snaps from a loved-up getaway in Barbados.
Maya Jama will launch Love Island on Monday night at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
