Strictly star Pete Wicks lands massive new TV job alongside Love Island icon
PETE Wicks has landed a huge new TV job alongside a Love Island icon.
It’s turning out to be a big year for ex-Towie star Pete, 36, who was recently announced as one of the famous faces taking part in Strictly Come Dancing this year.
Now he’s teaming up with Olivia Attwood for her ITV reality show Bad Boyfriends.
The series kicked off this week and new images show Pete tricking the men taking part into thinking he is the host of a host of a new show called Brotopia.
Speaking of his new role, Pete said: “Flying to Greece the play the role of a fake host on a show called Brotopia wasn’t something I ever expected to be doing – it was such a great experience – and made even better when my pal Olivia arrived and crashed the party!
“The cast are brilliant and I’m looking forward to watching the series back and seeing if the couples can work on strengthening their relationship with Olivia’s help.”
Bad Boyfriends sees eight naughty men put through challenges in a bid to reform their behaviour for their long-suffering girlfriends.
The cast includes former Love Island Casa Amor bombshell Bayley and his Ex on the Beach star girlfriend Anya.
Meanwhile Pete recently fuelled romance rumours with another Love Island star, Faye Winter.
The pair were seen looking very cosy as they attended Vicky Pattison and Ercan Ramadan’s wedding at the weekend.
Among the photos shared by Faye on her Instagram Stories, the pair cuddled up in the photobooth – with Pete giving her a bear hug from behind.
In another he was seen getting down on one knee in a mock proposal.
It comes just weeks after Pete was snapped snogging fellow Love Island alumni Maura Higgins during a day out in London.
