Laura Whitmore has taken to Twitter to reveal the extent of her 'Strictly Come Dancing' injuries.

The 31-year-old blonde beauty has posted a picture of the bruises she has suffered on her arms while practising with her professional partner Giovanni Pernice.

Alongside images of her painful-looking bruises, Laura wrote: "I've always known I bruise like a peach ... But this is ridiculous."

The post prompted a speedy reply from professional dancer Gorka Marquez, who said: "thats normal when u dance with @pernicegiovann1. (sic)"

Giovanni then replied: "Irish white skin guys!!! It's not my fault #justsaying. (sic)"

This comes shortly after Gleb Savchenko bet £100 Giovanni will look to romance Laura on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.

The Russian dancer - who appeared on the show last year - isn't surprised the Italian hunk has split from actress Georgia May Foote, who he met on the programme in 2015.

Gleb is convinced he'll now try his luck with the blonde presenter.

He said: "I'm not shocked [he's split with Georgia]. He's young and he's Italian. You know what Italians are like! They were never going to get married, have kids and live happily ever after.

"I bet you £100 Giovanni will get with Laura this year. And next season I'll bet you another £100 he will get with his new partner!"
