Bruno Tonioli talks BGT at the Together for Short Lives Ball
Bruno Tonioli is set to make his debut as the new judge on Britain’s Got Talent this weekend. And even though Bruno is a household name to many fans, he keeps his personal life – and more specifically – his love life, more private. Despite this, Express.co.uk has everything you need to know about the TV judge, including whether or not he is married and who his partner is.
Is Bruno Tonioli married?
Bruno started his dancing career in the 1980s, with him also choreographing many iconic music videos, stage shows and tours for the likes of Freddie Mercury, Tina Turner, Boy George, Bananarama, Elton John and the Rolling Stones.
Fans may have even spotted Bruno in Elton John’s 1983 music video for I’m Still Standing.
Bruno joined BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing from the very first episode, back in 2004, when he appeared alongside fellow judges Len Goodman, Craig Revel Horwood and Arlene Phillips. The following year, he also headed to the US to judge the American version of Strictly, Dancing With The Stars.
Bruno was a judge on Strictly Come Dancing until 2019, when he chose to focus his energies on Dancing With The Stars instead.
Anton Du Beke ultimately replaced him as the new permanent Strictly Come Dancing judge going forward.
He also appeared on the second series of ITV’s The Masked Singer, where he came in third as Pearly King.

Bruno has been in a long-term relationship with his partner, Jason Schanne, since 2010, with the couple having a commitment ceremony, two years after they met, in 2012.
The couple don’t have any children and split their time between their homes in London and West Hollywood, California.
Who is Bruno Tonioli’s partner?
Bruno Tonioli’s partner is Jason Schanne, who is a model by profession.
According to sources, Jason was born in Michigan, in the United States, in 1986, while Bruno was born 31 years earlier, in northeast Italy, in 1955.
Despite Bruno being very much in the spotlight, Jason appears to only make rare public appearances with his partner.
Fans last saw the couple together publicly on the red carpet for Mary Poppins Returns in 2018.
Jason does not appear to be on social media, while Bruno has over 230k followers on his Instagram alone. Here he shares plenty of behind the scenes snaps and videos from the shows – such as America’s Dancing With The Stars and now BGT – that he appears on.
Britain’s Got Talent starts Saturday 15 April at 8pm on ITV and ITVX and continues on Sunday at 7:45pm.
