The former Strictly Come Dancing star has been embroiled in a fresh row after demanding to view behind-the-scenes footage of them training together.

Friends claimed she suffered from PTSD due to her time on the show with Giovanni
But following the explosive claims, Sherlock actress Amanda, 51, has now restricted who can comment on her Instagram page.
This means that the only messages that would appear on the page would be positive ones from people he knows.
It comes after Giovanni, 33, was inundated with comments from Strictly fans which were ‘abusive’ towards Amanda.
Friends of the Mr Selfirdge star previously claimed Amanda suffered from PTSD after appearing on the show with Gio.
The BBC insists it has offered support to the actress since the series ended.
A BBC spokesperson told The Sun: “The BBC offers comprehensive support to all individuals who take part in our programmes.
“Strictly Come Dancing has always taken its duty of care incredibly seriously and there is ongoing dialogue between senior members of the production team and contestants to ensure any concerns are resolved quickly.
“Strogo has a proud record of joyful, positive experiences where strong support and assistance is always available at every stage of production.”
Along with Amanda, Good Morning Britain star Ranvir Singh also complained about Giovanni, while former Steps singer Faye Tozer reportedly also fell out with the Italian pro-dancer.
TV personality Richie Anderson previously unfollowed his former dance partner on Instagram, while former Love Island host Laura Whitmore previously revealed she was “broken” by her time with the dancer.
