Italian choreographer Pernice reportedly spoke out about the issue during a launch of his fragrance this week.

The Sun reports Perfumery & Co store co-owner David McConnachie stated: “He said he is very confident it will all be sorted out soon.

Taking the opposite view, other sources have claimed the issue won’t be resolved for a long time.

It has recently been claimed that five stars have given formal interviews to two former Met detectives in charge of the probe, with a source claiming that the investigation would not end for a while.

According to The Sun, a source claimed: “Those involved have been told the probe could well drag on into next year. Of course, the last thing the BBC needs is the findings to be released in the middle of this series.

The BBC said in a statement to The Mirror last week: “We recently issued a statement urging people not to indulge in speculation about complaints related to a high-profile show.

“As we made clear, anyone involved in a complaint has a right to both confidentiality and fair process. While we don’t comment on specifics, what The Sun is asserting contains substantive inaccuracies.”

GB News has contacted the BBC and Pernice’s representatives for a comment.
