Wicks stokes Jo talk

By Scarlet Howes, Hannah Hope and Amir Razavi

STRICTLY’S Pete Wicks and dance partner Jowita Przystal have set tongues wagging after being spotted emerging from a bathroom together during rehearsals.

The reality star and the Polish performer — who are both single — are the talk of the set after the incident.

A source said: “Everyone is desperate to know what happened.

“Pete’s found it hilarious and has said it was the first time they were alone together, with a nudge-nudge wink-wink but without spelling out the details so it’s a mystery.”

It is believed to have happened about two weeks ago.

Former The Only Way is Essex star Pete, 36, and ballroom supremo Jowita, 30, have reportedly grown close in the show’s early weeks, with Pete said to be “head over heels”.
