Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks Fuel Romance Speculation After Hotel Sighting
Reality television stars Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks have ignited fresh speculation about a potential romantic connection, following their joint departure from a Manchester hotel in the aftermath of the Brit Awards. Photographs captured the newly-single Attwood, aged 34, wearing a cap as luggage for both individuals was loaded into the same vehicle around midday.
Late-Night Pizza Run Precedes Morning Departure
The midday exit followed earlier images from the hotel lobby, taken at approximately 3am, which showed Wicks carrying two large pizza boxes inside. The pair had been in attendance at the prestigious awards ceremony, held at Manchester's Co-op Live arena, and were subsequently seen leaving an after-party together.
An onlooker informed The Sun, "Despite sitting on different tables they managed to spend most of the evening together. At one point they were sat next to each other." Representatives for both Attwood and Wicks have been approached for comment by The Mirror.
Attwood Addresses Single Status Amid Rumours
Olivia Attwood, who recently announced the end of her three-year marriage to footballer Bradley Dack, citing a "breach of trust", appeared to play down the swirling rumours. The reality star and presenter, who was seated at the ITV table during the event, remarked to the Sun on Sunday, "If you are going to be single anywhere this’d be the place. Is Harry Styles single?"
Since her separation, Attwood has been openly sharing her experiences with fans. On Valentine's Day, she revealed it was her first without a boyfriend since her teenage years, posting on Instagram, "Happy Valentine's Day, my cherubs. I love you all so much x. My first Valentine's without a boyfriend since I was like 14 years old, lol, so I took myself shopping, obvs."
Keeping Busy Post-Split
Attwood has been frequently seen socialising with Pete Wicks, a star of The Only Way Is Essex, as she focuses on her career and personal projects. Notably, she was photographed without her engagement and wedding rings during these outings.
The pair co-host a Sunday radio show on Kiss FM and have maintained a close friendship for several years. Attwood is also busy filming her documentary series Getting Filthy Rich and has recently been appointed as the new brand ambassador for Garnier.
Reflections on Marriage Breakdown
While Olivia Attwood has not disclosed specific details regarding the "breach of trust" that led to the marital breakdown, she did acknowledge feeling "disconnected" from Bradley Dack. Speaking on Jamie Laing’s Great Company podcast in February, she explained, "I just know that a lot of people will relate to the kind of year that Brad and I had. You know, when you have these young married people who have their careers, and they’re both high-pressure, and you’re doing your thing, it’s so easy to become disconnected."
In contrast, Bradley Dack has been spotted still wearing his wedding ring, despite Attwood confirming the relationship's conclusion. The ongoing appearances and shared moments between Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks continue to captivate public attention and fuel discussion among their fanbase.
