Strictly's Pete Wicks cosies up to Jowita Przystal as romance rumours continue to swirl
Strictly's Pete Wicks has been the subject of speculation about his love life for the past few weeks after several affectionate displays with both his dance partner Jowita and former Love Island star Maura Higgins.
Pete and Jowita looked very cosy last night as Claudia Winkleman interviewed them after getting through to next week's show.
The TV personality, 36, is thought to be dating Maura, 33, but she has claimed to be single.
However, Pete shared his admiration for the I'm A Celebrity star as he commented on a clip of Maura doing an eating challenge in the latest Bushtucker Trial.
Pete wrote in awe: "WHAT A WOMAN."

The pair opened Saturday's show with a fierce Tango to Easy Lover by Philip Bailey and Phil Collins, scoring 29 out of 40.
Jowita looked sensational in a white mesh dress, while Pete looked dapper in a black suit.
Fans gushed over the pair, as one typed: "Pete and Jowita are definitely in lurve." (sic)
A second commented, "You can't deny that Pete and Jowita are so cute together. Pete and Jowita, I am OBSESSED." (sic)

Express.co.uk has contacted representatives of Jowita and Pete for comment.
However, the judges were less impressed with Craig Revel-Horwood and Motsi Mabuse, who were the most scathing, giving the couple six and seven, respectively.
Despite the poor marking, the voting public kept them clear of the dance-off and through to the competition's final rounds.
After the results, Pete took to social media to thank fans for their support alongside dramatic black-and-white pictures of him and Jowita dancing.

The former TOWIE star glowed: “Firstly, THANK YOU, I never expected to be anywhere near a quarter-final of this show and the fact that I am is purely down to you at home!
“I’m not sure why you’re voting (for me),” he revealed but reiterated: “I’m so thankful that you are.”
Overflowing with gratitude, Wicks wished: “I could thank every single one of you individually.”
Later in the post, Wicks admitted: “I know I’m not as good as the rest and I’m sorry for that but I’m trying my best, we all are.”
