Pete Wicks has discussed his rumoured romance with I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! contestant Danielle Harold. The former Only Way Is Essex star was previously linked to the ex-EastEnders actor whilst the pair were in Australia.
Taking to the podcast he shares with King of the Jungle Sam Thompson, Pete, 35, began by disclosing exactly what he didn’t get up to Down Under. He began: “I just want to point out, I didn’t s**g anyone’s wife.”
Laughing, Sam, 31, explained the sentiment. He said: “Pete got linked to every single person out there.
“He got linked to Sarah, Nick [Pickard’s] girlfriend, he got linked to Danielle.” The Essex native replied: “That one they’re still going with as well”.
Going further with the romance claims, the Made In Chelsea star continued to say: “He got linked to my girlfriend Zara [McDermott], he got linked to Rochelle [Humes] I think at one point as well – I don’t think there were any more women out there for you to get linked to.”

He added: “Do you know what my favourite thing about this is…I’ve gone into the jungle and Pete’s flown out there to be there for me and it’s literally he can’t get away from it.
“He’s come to Australia and it’s ‘Pete Wicks’ linked with whoever the f*** he’s linked with’, he’ll never outrun it.”
In reply to all of the romance rumours that emerged following the conclusion of the ITV show, Pete said it was “absolutely horrendous behaviour”.
“The press – they hounded me and it is an absolute f*****g joke.” He added: “Sam could not be more loved and I am more hated.”
Rumours of Pete and Danielle, 31, getting cosy began to circulate earlier this month, with a source telling The Sun: “Danielle and Pete continue to enjoy their time together, it was another continued display of affection in public – they were looking cosy.

“They had their arms around each other and were cuddling.”
They added that even though their “closeness had been noted” it did “nothing to stop them” and that they were “very tactile again”.
Elsewhere on the Staying Relevant podcast, Sam admitted that he almost quit I’m A Celeb on day one due to suffering from a panic attack.
After discussing this entrance into the jungle, the star said: “On the first day, when we go in, I had a panic attack.
“I went in really guns blazing, I was so excited, I was like, ‘Wahey everyone is here’ like energy through the roof and then suddenly it hit me what we were doing.
“I literally sat on my own and was like, ‘Oh My God’, my heart was going really quick and I was sweating and I really wanted to be sick.
“I thought either I’m really ill and I’m going to have to see the medic on day one, and I’m going to have to be like, ‘You might have to pull me out’.”
