They spoke about weddings and their ideal nuptials on their podcast the Sunday Roast with Olivia saying she would have her “next wedding” in the US casino city.

“We’re going to talk about stag dos because I’ve been invited on a stag do today in Vegas,” Pete began, with Olivia chiming in to add, “That’s an elite destination for a stag or anything.”

But when Pete asked if he could come on the hen’s do for her next wedding, Olivia revealed she would not do another one and ended up crying at the one she had before marrying Bradley.

“This is like my hot take. So having been there, done that [I] got the T-shirt and the trauma, [and] I wouldn’t do a hen’s do again,” she said.

“I think they’re lame. Sorry, that’s really controversial… It was the only girls’ holiday that I’ve not really enjoyed.”

Olivia added: “I cried on the second day and there’s a lot of pressure and it feels that girls are difficult.”

While the pair continued to discuss weddings and their associated celebrations, they avoided talking about their public kiss.

The pair had previously insisted they were just friends but the snog proved they were a couple.

Last week a pal of Pete and Olivia confirmed: “They have been spending a lot of time together and an unexpected romance has blossomed from friendship.”

Olivia has also been in the news recently after it was revealed her wedding to Bradley was a sham.

The Love Island alum, 34, who has gone on to have major success by fronting several shows on ITV, documented her marriage to her now-ex Bradley in her show Olivia Marries Her Match.

In an episode that aired in August 2023, Olivia can be seen walking down the aisle to marry Bradley before the pair say their vows and tie the knot.

ITV bosses are now reportedly “stunned” to learn of the alleged sham marriage after we exclusively revealed her nuptials have been called into question.

Olivia and Bradley held their £200,000 ceremony for 80 guests at the five-star Bulgari hotel in London’s Knightsbridge in June 2023, two months before the episode aired.

She had even changed her name to Olivia Attwood-Dack, using that in her frequent appearances on ITV1’s Loose Women.

Yet the wedding has now been revealed to not be a legal marriage, as the union has not been logged with the General Register Office, the archive of all marriages and civil partnerships for England and Wales.

Olivia’s camp has claimed that the couple had planned to complete paperwork at a register office near their home in Cheshire six weeks after the wedding.

But they failed to ever sign anything as “Olivia uncovered a number of mistruths” and that her inability to trust Bradley “forced her hand in not being able to legally bind their union”.

She then posted a selfie to Instagram and wrote: “And reading ‘hey girly’ texts on my break, gals come to the front today please and then I’m moving on with my life ty x.”

According to Urban Dictionary, a “hey girly” text is a “text you receive or send about a man cheating”.

Bradley Dack’s girlfriend having ‘best week of her life’ after their reunion


PETE IS ON

How Pete Wicks & Olivia Attwood’s kiss could be career suicide for Towie star

Earlier today, Bradley’s carefree girlfriend Emily said she was having “the best week of her life” following the surprise reunion.

She took to TikTok to share her excitement for the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special, which is set to air on Disney+ this Friday.

In the video, Emily is seen driving along in her car with a cap and jumper on as she blasts songs from the iconic Disney show.

She sings along to the music as she writes over it: “Happy Hannah Montana Day to all those that celebrate.”

Emily captioned it: “What a good day to be alive, Hannah is back.”

One of her followers commented: “Good things coming,” as she responded: “Aren’t they just.”

Another said: “Having the best day,” and Emily replied: “The best week of my life.”

Olivia’s pals are far less enthusiastic.

An insider said: “After everything Bradley has done, Olivia’s friends can’t believe he is back with his ex all while he’s begging Olivia to take him back.

“Olivia was trying to protect Brad so never wanted to share what actually happened that caused their split.

“So here it is — Olivia was told he had cheated on her, so went through his phone and saw evidence that confirmed it.

“Olivia ended it because crucially that wasn’t the first time she had doubted his fidelity.

“She was trying to respect their 10-year relationship by staying quiet but her friends are bemused as to how Bradley is the one who caused all this, and Liv was still trying to protect him.”

Bradley first dated his new girlfriend Emily way back in 2017, but dumped her to win back Olivia following her stint on Love Island.

But pals say Emily remained the “other woman” in Brad and Olivia’s marriage.

However, Emily is not the woman Olivia was told Brad had cheated on her with.

While Brad might have been at fault for the relationship’s demise, he appears unhappy with Olivia’s actions since.

Shortly after the photos of her kiss with Pete were made public, Bradley unfollowed her on Instagram.

He’s since gone one step further and deleted the most recent picture dump he had with her from his profile.

His page is now largely pictures and videos of him on the football pitch, although he still has his ex on his feed further down.

Pals said over the weekend that Olivia and Pete’s friendship has “blossomed into an unexpected romance”.

A friend confirmed: “They have been spending a lot of time together and an unexpected romance has blossomed from friendship.”

The two are said to have begun their fling at the Brit Awards on February 28.

Olivia and Bradley dated on and off for years and began before she appeared on Love Island in 2017.

They eventually rekindled their romance before getting engaged while on a romantic holiday in Dubai in 2019.

Olivia and Brad finally tied the knot in a lavish ceremony at the Bulgari Hotel in Knightsbridge in June 2023, after it got pushed back due to Covid.

Following their split in January, the ITV star moved out of the marital home and into her own apartment in London.

All the signs Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks were a secret couple

AS NEWS of Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks’ romance has been confirmed, there was actually numerous signs of a relationship brewing over recent months.

The Sun revealed on Saturday night how the pair’s friendship has turned to romance, with the KISS Radio co-hosts sharing a kiss in front of pals during a night out this week.

It comes after Olivia’s split from her footballer husband Bradley Dack earlier this year, following a “breach of trust” from his side.

Friends have now assured there was “no crossover” between the relationships.

While things may have been strictly friendship until recently, there were several nods that Pete and Olivia’s romance was on the cards; from the cosy Ibiza boat snaps which caused a stir last summer to their late-night pizza date earlier this month.

Here, we take a look at all of the signs the duo were a secret couple.

Exact date Olivia’s romance with Pete began as pal says ‘there’s no overlap’

BRIT’s Pizza Date

Enjoying a night out at the BRIT Awards earlier this month, Olivia and Pete spent the majority of the evening together.

Despite sitting at different tables inside the ceremony, a source told at the time how they had managed to remain together at several points in the night.

At 3AM, Pete was then snapped carrying two pizzas up to his hotel room following the boozy night.

The next morning, they were seen exiting the same hotel together and sharing a car back home.

3AM night out

The month after her split from Bradley was revealed, Olivia let her hair down on a night out which ended with Pete in the early hours.

Celebrating her Garnier brand deal at The Newman Hotel in Central London, she partied with colleagues and friends before heading out to Soho with Pete and some other pals.

Olivia and Pete were then pictured at 3AM as they left in a taxi together.

THOSE Ibiza boat snaps

It was long before Olivia’s split from Bradley that her relationship with Pete raised eyebrows.

Last summer, during a trip to Ibiza, Olivia was snapped in a cosy embrace with Pete as she laid back into his arms on a yacht.

Wrapping his arms around Olivia, Pete had his legs open as she lay in between them and they both laughed with friends.

Other pictures from the day showed the pals walking together with Pete’s arm around Olivia.

At the time, Pete and Olivia were solely friends, but it was reported that her husband Bradley was left “furious” over the “reckless” party-hard behaviour.

Following the snaps, Olivia admitted that the pair had a rocky summer and reminded fans she “isn’t perfect.”

“It’s no secret. We had a really bad summer. I know this is not how people do things in my world. They do not talk and marriage in this way,” said Olivia on her podcast, Olivia’s House.

 “I think that there was stuff going on on both sides…. At the end of day marriage is really f***ing hard.”

Olivia said that Bradley hadn’t been perfect, but she wanted to give him the chance to share that side of the story when he eventually joins her on the podcast.

She accepted that she could be “self-destructive”, and when the going gets tough she tends to push him away rather than lean into the issues together.

But following the incident, the pair got back on track and appeared to move on with their marriage.

Pete admits to ‘missing’ Olivia

In a passing comment months after their trip to the White Isle, Pete admitted he missed his holiday “partner in crime” after taking a trip to Vegas without her.

Pete, who was still just friends with Olivia at the time, said of his holiday: “It did make me think of you. Because you were there before and we have said before we like a holiday. 

“I just wish you’d been in Vegas with me. Because I feel like it’s very me and you Vegas. I needed another Vegas partner in crime.”

Bradley blocks Pete

While Olivia’s estranged husband Bradley continues to follow the TV star on social media, one person he doesn’t follow is Pete.

In fact, he has even blocked the former TOWIE star.

Hours after Olivia and Pete were seen leaving their Manchester hotel together following the BRITs, Bradley made his opinions on the relationship clear.

ATT’S THE SPIRIT

An onlooker snapped their snog at rooftop bar Flute in London’s Soho, where they partied for 3½ hours on Friday night.

The venue is where Towie star Pete, 37, was spotted kissing Love Island’s Maura Higgins in 2024.

Last night a pal of Pete and Olivia confirmed: “They have been spending a lot of time together and an unexpected romance has blossomed from friendship.”

Olivia only announced her marriage split from footballer Bradley Dack, 32, in January.

She and Pete, who co-host Sunday Roast: The Podcast, are said to have begun their fling at the Brit Awards on February 28.

The friend added: “Their passionate romance only started in the last few weeks, since she has split from Bradley, there was no overlap.

“Olivia’s close friends know about this new development and are pleased Pete has put a smile back on her face.

“He has been a shoulder to cry on and there for Olivia during this really tough time.

“She has been in the depths of a really horrible break-up and Pete has helped her through it.

“They have got closer and Pete has held a torch for Olivia for a really long time.

“She is hurting and vulnerable, and he was in the right place at the right time.”

The friend added: “They get on really well and are taking it slow, there is no label at the moment.”

Since her marriage separation, speculation has mounted that Olivia has moved on with lothario Pete.

The pair have known each other for around nine years and both starred in Towie in 2019.

Last August they partied with friends on a yacht off Ibiza.

Three weeks ago — when they were still thought to be just friends — we told how they shared a 3am pizza in a Manchester hotel.

Proof of their relationship came on Friday in Flute at the five-star Broadwick Soho hotel.

The onlooker said: “Olivia and Pete looked like honeymooners as they kissed in front of revellers.”

The couple met with pals and sank glasses of wine and vodka drinks from 8.30pm until midnight.

Around 10pm, they stood at their table and openly snogged as their friends cheered.

Olivia broke off to scream in delight and punch the air in celebration.

An onlooker said: “It was a party and Pete and Olivia were the main attraction.

“If you didn’t know, you might have assumed it was an intimate wedding or engagement celebration.

“You would never have guessed Olivia had just endured a painful marriage split.

“She was beaming in delight and couldn’t have looked happier.

“And at one point she rose in front of her friends, took Pete by the hand, and they kissed passionately as a group of ten to twelve people cheered them on.

“Olivia and Pete didn’t seem to mind who saw them.

“The noise and spectacle they were making caused everyone in the room to stop what they were doing and look.”

Olivia looked stunning in a black top and skinny jeans, with Pete in a smart jacket.

She stopped and chatted to other revellers in the dimly-lit, discreet venue, even asking other drinkers if they felt she looked OK.

A source said: “She was very sweet and so obviously madly in love with Pete.

“She was anxious that she looked good for her man. They had a blissful night.

“Friends came and went from their table and when they were alone they were very intense, whispering and pausing conversation to kiss.

“And they were just as tactile when in a bigger group.

“Whatever hardships she has been through, it was very clear that Olivia was ecstatically happy with him next to her at their table.”

Our snaps of the loved-up pair are a hammer blow to her estranged hubby Bradley, who plays for League Two Gillingham.

We told how he blocked Pete on Instagram weeks after the marriage split was revealed.

At last month’s Brits in Manchester, Olivia and Pete were seen chatting and whispering despite being seated apart.

She was on the ITV table while he was with Kiss FM.

That night Olivia told The Sun on Sunday: “If you are going to be single anywhere this’d be the place. Is Harry Styles single?”

She and Pete later left an after-party together and took a taxi to the Edwardian Manchester hotel.

At 3am Pete was seen carrying two pizza boxes through the lobby before getting into a lift.

Hours later the couple emerged together, with both wearing baseball caps, and were driven off at around 12.30pm.

Speaking ahead of the ceremony Pete told their podcast: “What always happens at these events is Liv and I gravitate towards each other and basically just stick together, don’t we?”

Olivia replied: “Because I feel like we both have the same objective. And talk to as few people . . .” Pete then added: “As possible.”

Pete then said: “Although we are not going big this year, are we?”, to which Olivia countered: “What do you mean?” Pete continued: “You have a flight the next day.”

Olivia replied: “I know, you need to keep me lucid enough that I don’t get stopped at immigration.”

Pete said: “The danger being that I jump on the flight with you in what I am wearing from the Brits.”

The Sun on Sunday revealed in January that Olivia had split from Dack – following what sources said was a “breach of trust” on his part.

In 2017, she went on Love Island, later saying it was revenge on Dack for cheating on her at the time.

They reunited, and she joined Towie in 2019, on which Pete was already a regular. He went on to dance on Strictly in 2024.

Our revelation of Olivia and Pete’s romance will fan the flames between her and arch rival Maura.

In August 2024, at the same Broadwick Soho Hotel terrace, Pete and Maura had confirmed their romance — after rumours swirled at that year’s TV Baftas.

Days after splitting from Pete last year, Maura took a pop at him on Valentine’s Day.

Asked where he was as she left a restaurant, she quipped: “Dunno, probably cheating.”

Pete has bedded a host of TV personalities including Jess Wright, Megan McKenna and Megan Barton-Hanson.

His and Olivia’s people were contacted for comment.

“A time was had,” said Sophie Piper.

Olivia is yet to divulge exactly what went on between them.

However, she did say that she would speak about her marriage breakdown when the time is right – insisting she had a “lot to process”.

Olivia Attwood opens up on ‘good distraction’ from Bradley Dack split

But the presenters couldn’t help but turn the spotlight onto Olivia’s personal life as they asked her how she was coping following her split.

Ben said: “It’s been a very busy start to the year for you professionally and personally, how you doing?” to which Olivia began to laugh.

She replied: “My feet haven’t touched the ground, I’m grateful forever for this wonderful thing that I get to call work and I can throw myself into it.

“I think when you are in entertainment and you have to show up as the person you’re booked to be, almost when you’re doing that you kind of trick your brain – it’s a distraction isn’t it, you can just get into it, that’s been my anchor since Jan.

“I feel like I haven’t breathed.”

Olivia then spoke about her house move, which saw her leave her shared home with Brad last month.

“I am now getting there with the apartment, I am very lucky that I’m in the position where I’m on my own two feet and I can do that. But moving is hell, no matter how much help you have,” she said.

Olivia acknowledged there is an expectation for her to share her private life due to her rise to fame on reality show Love Island.

But she said she’s taking her time to process everything before speaking about her split on her podcast.

“The reason I’m sat here with you guys today is from being on Love Island, so people are used to a level of access to me which I have no issue with providing still but I have to do it when I’m ready and I know what I’m wanting to share,” she said.

“I’m trying to do that a little bit more as I get older ‘think before you speak’, because once you’ve said it, it’s hard to take it back.

“I’m still digesting things and working things out. We’ll get to it, we’ll have a podcast chat, it’s coming but I just need to process it.”

The Sun revealed in January that Olivia had split from Gillingham footballer Bradley following a “breach of trust” on his part.

In 2017, she went on Love Island and emerged in a relationship with Chris Hughes, later saying it was revenge on Bradley for cheating.

They eventually reunited after having a heart to heart while she was still with Chris, and she joined Towie in 2019, on which Pete was already a regular.

Last summer, Olivia and Pete were seen in an intimate embrace on a yacht off Ibiza.
