During the podcast episode, Ryan Thomas revealed that he had asked Olivia for gossip before the show. 'I asked my friend if she had any gossip for me because I'm going on Staying Relevant,' the Coronation Street actor confessed. 'This friend of mine, you might know her, she's called Olivia Attwood.'
'I said, "Yes Liv, me and the boys are doing Staying Relevant today, got anything on Pete we can talk about?"' Ryan continued. 'She went, "Hi honey, what are you thinking? He sent me a hundred red roses to my set in Ibiza, because he's gone soft."'
Pete's Unusual Hotel Habit Revealed
Olivia didn't stop there, offering up a surprisingly intimate detail about Pete. 'He won't go for a poo in the hotel room because he thinks I'm going to take a picture of him - so he takes a s**t in the lobby instead,' she said. 'He's such a niche guy, very complex.'
The pair have known each other for nearly a decade, having met at the Specsavers Awards in London in 2017. However, their bond reportedly deepened after Olivia's split from husband Bradley Dack earlier this year.
