Can Pete Wicks’ tears of joy and a potential fix keep him dancing? Grab some popcorn as we dive deep into the Strictly Come Dancing drama with love triangles and public outrage!

As the glitter flies and the sequins shimmer on the dance floor, Pete Wicks finds himself at the heart of an unexpected controversy on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing. After being saved from the dance-off for the second week running, viewers couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. Critics are having a field day as accusations of the show being a ‘fix’ swirl around. Pete himself has speculated that the public may be ‘playing a cruel joke’ on him. If that’s the case, at least this joke comes with twirls and pirouettes!

Adding to the drama, Pete was recently spotted getting cozy with Love Island star Maura Higgins, who has finally addressed their budding romance amidst the chaos of reality TV stardom. The couple was seen smooching a few weeks ago, right after he was cooling off a romantic thing going on with dance partner Jowita Przystal. The levels of relationship acrobatics here could rival their dance moves! Maura chimed in while sharing an emotional moment on I’m A Celebrity, confirming to the jungle camp that she hasn’t yet fallen in love, which makes us wonder—does Pete hold her heart?

This emotional rollercoaster reached a peak when Pete broke down in tears after avoiding the dreaded dance-off once more. Fans watched as emotion overtook him upon learning he and Jowita were through to the semi-finals, despite being at the bottom of the leaderboard during Musicals Week. His heartfelt reaction has caused a mixed bag of sentiments from viewers—some are cheering him on, while others still question his dance merit and support.

With the public still divided, one thing is for sure: the Strictly stage has seen its fair share of controversies, and Pete's journey is no exception. Will he stay in the competition and further baffle critics? One can only speculate. Meanwhile, the show continues to draw attention with fan debates, romance odds, and the tension of who out-dances who! It’s all part of the Strictly allure.

Did you know? In its inaugural season in 2004, Strictly Come Dancing had a whopping 10 million viewers tuned in! And on the love front, Pete is just one of many reality stars crossing life whilst searching for love on the stage and beyond. That's just television magic for you! Plus, from the glitzy dance floor to real-life romances, it seems drama is the only real choreography we can expect!
