Jowita Przystal, a star of 'Strictly Come Dancing,' shared a series of photographs on Instagram showcasing her physique in a white bikini while vacationing in Madrid. The posts surfaced as her rumored former flame, Pete Wicks, officially began showcasing his new relationship with Olivia Attwood.
Przystal, 31, displayed toned abs and a tan in the poolside photos. She and Wicks were partners on the 2024 season of the BBC show, where their on-screen chemistry fueled speculation about a romance. Their connection continued to be a topic of discussion following a kiss shared during a podcast tour in September 2025, though Wicks later characterized the moment as a "theatrical stunt" and stated they were "friends for life."
Przystal's holiday update coincided with Wicks sharing a collection of photos with Attwood from their own vacation in Ibiza, effectively confirming their relationship. Wicks captioned the post, "I guess someone has to go first…IBIZA," prompting a supportive comment from his friend Sam Thompson. Attwood and Wicks reportedly began dating in February after her separation from husband Bradley Dack. Their relationship had previously been subject to rumors last summer after they were seen together on a boat trip.
At the time, Attwood, who was still married to Dack, addressed the photos on her show, stating that while she was leaning on Wicks on the yacht, "nothing happened." Wicks recently spoke about their romance for the first time following a holiday in St. Tropez, describing it as "delightful" and an opportunity to "[s]witch off from the world."
During an episode of the podcast "Staying Relevant," hosted by Wicks and Thompson, Ryan Thomas revealed that Attwood had commented on Wicks's public display of affection. Attwood reportedly sent Wicks a large bouquet of red roses while she was in Ibiza filming, noting that he had "gone soft." She had previously shared on Instagram that Wicks sent the flowers to help her feel better during a challenging time with a hangover. Attwood's relationship with Dack, which was not legally binding despite a wedding, ended after she accused him of repeated infidelity. She has since stated her intention to marry multiple times and expressed her past feelings of humiliation regarding the breakdown of her relationship with Dack.
