Graziano Di Prima Sues BBC for Unfair Dismissal

Graziano Di Prima, a former professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, is reportedly taking legal action against the BBC for unfair dismissal. Di Prima was fired following allegations of verbal and physical abuse towards his 2023 dance partner, Zara McDermott. He has hired top lawyers from Whitestone Chambers, who have reviewed extensive text and WhatsApp messages and believe he has a case for unfair dismissal. Di Prima has expressed regret over the incidents but maintains that his intense passion for dancing was misinterpreted. Fellow dancer Vito Coppola has publicly defended Di Prima, emphasizing their long-standing friendship and love. The situation has caused a significant scandal, with Di Prima determined to clear his name and the BBC yet to comment on the lawsuit.
