An insider told the publication: “It's early days, but Maura is really enjoying getting to know Giovanni, and the feeling is mutual.

Prior to Chris, Maura found love with professional dancer Curtis Pritchard on the show, with the pair finishing in fourth place.
Meanwhile, Giovanni previously dated Pussycat Dolls’ Ashley Roberts, who he split from in 2020.
