close pal has warned him to “focus on dancing” after sharing fears of the "curse". On Saturday (September 14), the former star, 36, stepped out on the dancefloor for the first time along with his fellow contestants. He certainly wowed fans with his impressive dance moves in the dazzling group number before he was matched up with 2022 winner Jowita Pryzstal.

It didn’t take long before his cheeky side came out to play, with the brunette hunk poking fun at his cast mates and making viewers swoon up and down the country. Now, his close pal and dating expert Anna Williamson has hinted that he could be the next star to fall for the infamous ‘curse’. Speaking In an , the Celebs Go Dating expert hinted that love may already be on his mind.



When asked if he will fall victim to the TV ‘curse’, she told us: “Oh gosh who knows! “We've obviously had a few messages and lots of encouraging words – but I have told him to maybe focus on the dancing and not the ladies. But that’s Pete, that’s Pete’s private life.” She added: “He’s such a wonderful friend and I’m very, very proud of him.

I watched the first show on Saturday and I thought he looked a little bit nervous, a little bit reserved to start with and I could see his relief when he completed the group dance. “I am his biggest cheerleader and I hope to get down to the studio so I can cheer him on in person too. Pete’s career couldn’t be any bigger right now, but I think this is just going to blow it off the charts now.

” The mum-of-two previously worked with the reality star during three appearances on Celebs Go Dating. Despite his dashing good looks and dry sense of humour, the podcast host has always struggled when it comes to relationships. It comes after the TV personality said he won’t be sacrificing the cigarettes to help stay healthier for the show.

He also told his best pal Sam Thompson on their Staying Relevant podcast that he’s never been a fan of Strictly. He told the winner: “It’s the last thing I think anyone would ever think that I would do. I’ve never thought about doing it.

I’ve never really watched Strictly.” Pete added: “I am f***ing petrified. For the first time in f***ing 10 years of TV, I’m s***ing it.

It’s obviously such a big show that so many people are gonna watch, but they’re people that don’t know me. “Like, the audience is so different, they’re gonna f***ing hate me.”.
