Olivia Attwood Breaks Silence After Kissing Pete Wicks in London Bar
Love Island star Olivia Attwood has finally addressed the media frenzy surrounding photographs that captured her kissing Sunday Roast podcast co-host Pete Wicks in a London bar. The images, taken on Friday night, have sparked widespread speculation about a budding romance between the two reality television personalities.
Instagram Response and Public Reaction
In a recent Instagram post, Olivia Attwood expressed her discomfort with the sudden attention. Filmed by a crew while wearing black leather hot pants, knee-high boots, and sheer tights, the 34-year-old KISS FM star admitted, "This is a nightmare for me. I'm actually very shy. It's a lot of attention." Despite her initial hesitation, she quickly resumed her professional demeanor, striking poses in an upmarket hotel lift as her glam squad captured photographs.
Details of the London Bar Encounter
The intimate moment occurred at Flute, a dimly-lit bar in Soho, London, where the duo was seen snuggling together and looking at Olivia's phone at a table covered with empty glasses. Friends have revealed that their friendship has evolved into what they describe as an "unexpected romance." Interestingly, this bar appears to be a favorite spot for Pete Wicks, who was previously photographed there kissing his former flame, Maura Higgins.
Sources Claim Olivia is 'Smitten'
Insiders close to the pair have disclosed to Closer Magazine that Olivia Attwood has developed strong feelings for Pete Wicks. One source stated, "Olivia has always been drawn to Pete and carried a torch for him. If she wasn't with him herself, she didn't want anyone else to have him." Another added, "Olivia has fallen big time, she's totally smitten with Pete. She's always liked him – everyone can see the connection." The romance reportedly began in February following the BRIT Awards.
Podcast Dynamics and Emotional Support
During their latest Sunday Roast podcast recording, Olivia demonstrated her support for Pete as he discussed displaying emotions and crying at work. She told him, "I would want to support you and I would. I would hug you for like a second, but I would feel uncomfortable." Olivia explained her reserved nature, saying, "I think I've seen my dad cry once, my mum cry like twice. I just haven't grown up around people showing emotion." Pete responded by noting her own emotional restraint, to which she confessed, "I allow myself like the odd crash out. Like I give myself like five minutes. And then I have to get back to business."
The Mirror has reached out to representatives for both Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks for further comment on the situation. As the story continues to develop, fans remain eager for more updates on this potential celebrity romance.
