Pete Wicks and Olivia Attwood are spotted kissing in a hotel bar as their friendship turns to ‘passionate romance’ just weeks after her split from husband Bradley Dack

Pete Wicks and Olivia Attwood were spotted kissing in a hotel bar just weeks after splitting from husband Bradley Dack.

The couple were spotted locking lips at Flute Bar in London’s Soho on Friday night. Sun.

Pete, 37, and Olivia, 34, previously insisted they were just friends but the kiss proved otherwise. They are thought to have begun their escape at the end of February.

One viewer said the couple partied for about three-and-a-half hours at the Flute Bar, which is where Pete was seen kissing Olivia’s rival Maura Higgins in 2024.

A friend of the couple said: ‘Their passionate romance only began in the last few weeks, with no overlap since her split from Bradley.

‘Olivia’s close friends know about this new development and are delighted that Pete has put a smile on his face. She has been a shoulder to cry on for Olivia during this really difficult time.

Olivia split from footballer Bradley (pictured) in January after three years of marriage, with sources claiming the relationship ended after Bradley ‘broke her trust’.

‘She was on the brink of a really terrible breakup and Pete helped her through the process.’

An insider said Pete and Olivia arrived at the bar around 8.30pm and stayed drinking with a group of friends until midnight.

They are said to have kissed around 10pm as their friends applauded them. Olivia reportedly screamed with joy and punched the air in celebration.

The Daily Mail has contacted Pete and Olivia’s representatives for comment.

The couple tried to go undercover in Manchester earlier this month and left a hotel with their luggage in the middle of the morning after carrying two pizzas to their room at 3am the night before.

Olivia separated from 32-year-old football player Bradley in January after three years of marriage, and sources claimed that the relationship ended after Bradley “shaken her trust”.

Olivia looked cozy with Pete as they partied together at the BRITs and was seen leaving the event in a car together later in the evening in photos published by The Mirror.

During the ceremony, in the busy and noisy environment, Pete was seen leaning towards her, and she was seen reciprocating him passionately.

Just a few weeks ago, she was spotted with Pete in London following the Garnier brand launch event.

After the party at The Newman Hotel, where Olivia was introduced as the new face of Garnier, she hit the road with Pete and a group of friends.

Olivia raised eyebrows with pal Pete as they were photographed getting cozy during a messy trip to Ibiza last August.

The photos showed the former TOWIE star’s hand on the bikini-clad beauty’s hip as the pair soaked up the sun on a yacht.

He admitted that he could understand why the images had ‘upset’ his footballer wife at the time and admitted that their marriage was ‘a work in progress’.

Addressing the breakdown of her marriage, Olivia said: ‘I keep opening Instagram to post but I don’t know what to say or do. haha fragility is not my bag!!! The feeling of bleeding in shark-infested waters is very common, especially on social media.

‘I cry myself to sleep, then when the alarm goes off at 5am things go back to normal and it’s been that way for a long time.’

He continued: ‘But there’s also so much change in such a short time (you know I hate it (Taurus)). I never expected to move into this apartment alone. And I was definitely out of my depth.

‘I want to be happy. I want Brad to be happy. Just one day at a time. For both of us. and anyone else who needs to read this.

‘Normal programming and chat will resume as soon as possible. PS: Thank you, I feel your love immensely.’
