"The pair haven’t clicked. Richie is so swept up by the whole experience that he is talking 100 words a minute, and it can be hard for Giovanni," the insider said.
They continued: “He has told pals that Richie talks instead of listening during training, and it is frustrating.”
The source went on to say that the pair are still getting used to each other, adding: "Giovanni thinks Richie has real potential in the competition."
Giovanni and Richie are the second all-male partnership in Strictly history after Johannes Radebe and John Whaite who finished in second place in last years competition behind Giovanni and EastEnders actress Rose Ayling-Ellis.

Taking to social media with their predictions, fans speculated that Loose Women panellist Kaye Adams could be the first to leave.
One fan said: "Oh dear Kaye. First out based on that glimpse of a dance," as a second added: "Early prediction – I've a suspicion that Kaye might be one of the first out."
Another echoed: "After seeing Kaye dancing, I think she may be first to go."
While someone else said: "First out I’m still going with Kaye. Tony is obviously terrible but I’ve a feeling Katya will go with comedy routines to keep him in longer."
