You seem fixated on getting this thread to agree with you that 'Lavanni' was a wonderful partnership. that they adored each other and continue to do so against all the evidence to the contrary.
I for one couldn't care less about Laura who now seems to have made an amazing recovery and is stomping about as usual to the opening of an envelope wearing 8inch heels.
My impression is that Laura wasn't as good a dancer as she thought she was going to be - having blamed the 'Curse of Strictly' headlines, the injury and everything else she now blames Gio.
Gio was spoilt last year he had a celeb partner who was a natural and talented dancer and was prepared to train for long hours and embrace the whole Strictly experience - he was very unlucky this year - he got a partner who was too tall and was IMO ungainly none of which was what one could have hoped for him.
We all hoped Gio would be partnered with Louise or Anastacia and I am sure so does he,
With Louise he would have made the final possibly and with Anastacia he would have made a really good friend.
With neither of them would he be embroiled in newspaper leaks from his celeb partner questioning his professional attitude and behaviour.
I think unless there is any further evidence that 'Lavanni' were a partnership made in Heaven you are very much on your own in caring anything about them as a duo.
This is certainly not the thread to agree with you.
