Watch the awkward moment Strictly’s Pete Wicks addresses romance rumours with Maura Higgins AND Jowita Prystal
THIS is the awkward moment Strictly’s Pete Wicks addresses romance rumours with Maura Higgins AND Jowita Prystal.
The former Towie personality appeared on the So Wrong It’s Right podcast hosted by fellow reality TV personality, Olivia Attwood.
However, if the Strictly Come Dancing contestant thought he was going to be in for an easy ride, he had another thing coming!
Olivia, 33, is known for her sharp mind and the former I’m A Celebrity star was keen on probing her pal.
“Your dating life. Maura Higgins,” said Olivia as she wanted the real tea behind the rumoured romance.
“Me and Maura have known each other for a long time,” began Pete Wicks, 36, as he wanted to seemingly clear up any confusion.
Olivia was keen on hearing more as she interrupted him by saying: “You’ve had a kiss, we’ve seen it!,” Olivia.
But Pete denied there was anything more than friendship between the duo, replying: “No, you haven’t seen it.”
However, Olivia seemed insistent on getting to the bottom of the story as she continued to press her pal.
Doubling down, she stated: “We’ve seen a picture of it,” as Pete continued to deny the existence of such an image.
So Olivia moved the conversation along as she shifted the topic to Jowita Prystal and the hot chemistry he supposedly shares with her.
Pete has been seen looking extremely close to his professional and the duo previously further fuelled romance rumours after she made a very flirty comment.
Earlier this month the pair even seemed to have shared a passionate kiss during the live show.
More snaps taken behind the scenes of Pete’s rehearsals showed the pair getting steamy once again.
The former Love Island star asked: “Next thing I need to know, are you and your dance partner romantically involved?”
Pete couldn’t help but laugh, stating: “My God!”, as he was creased over his chair.
