Pete Wicks playfully teased his good friend Sam Thompson for leaving him out of a double date invitation, joking that it left him feeling a bit down. The revelation came during an episode of the Staying Relevant podcast on October 27, where Pete mentioned that Sam had casually asked him to join a double date over the weekend.
Pete decided to decline the offer, fearing it might be awkward to be the third wheel at the Sunday roast and feeling that it could be overly romantic. Known for his appearances on popular TV shows like Strictly Come Dancing and The Only Way Is Essex, Pete described the invite as more of a casual gesture.
According to Pete, the situation seemed like a half-hearted invitation, where Sam initially planned to meet him and then turned it into a double date. Pete shared his interpretation, suggesting that the invite implied a subtle message that he might feel out of place at the gathering.
During the podcast, Sam chuckled and refuted Pete’s claims, asserting that Pete was always welcome and was one of the first to be invited to the Sunday roast. Sam clarified that other attendees had dropped out, leading to the event transforming into a double date. Reflecting on the situation, Pete mentioned that he regretted not attending and wished he had gone along.
Addressing a separate incident, reports surfaced about Pete sharing what some fans described as a passionate kiss with his former Strictly dance partner, Jowita Przystal, during a live podcast session at London’s O2 Arena. The duo performed a routine they had prepared for the Strictly final before being eliminated, which included three kisses.
Both Pete and Sam dismissed any notions of the kiss being aggressive, emphasizing that it was part of the choreography and not meant to be misconstrued. Pete reiterated Sam’s statement, confirming that the kiss was simply part of the planned routine.
