Rumours have been circulating that Amanda and her partner Giovanni Pernice have had a few disagreements during their time in practice with the star having missed several rehearsals due to “medical reasons”.But the Daily Star reports that the star has "had enough" and is not enjoying her time on the show. “The pair have very different personalities and have clashed in recent weeks.
