Wicks and Attwood Romance: Insiders Claim 'Smoke and Mirrors'
Sources close to reality television stars Pete Wicks and Olivia Attwood suggest their widely publicized romance was strategically manufactured, contradicting Wicks' public statements.
Sources have alleged that the romance between reality television personalities Pete Wicks and Olivia Attwood was a carefully constructed narrative, a sentiment that contrasts with Wicks' public declarations of genuine affection. While Wicks has stated that his relationship with Attwood "just happened," insiders claim the origins of their love story involved strategic maneuvering.
The timing of the announcement of their joint presenting role on Kiss FM was reportedly a deliberate choice, hinting at a planned unveiling of their relationship. Insiders described the situation as containing "smoke and mirrors," suggesting that the public perception of their romance may not align with its actual beginnings.
Rumors of a relationship between Wicks and Attwood first surfaced in August 2025 when the pair were photographed together on a yacht in Ibiza. This public appearance preceded any official confirmation or statements from the individuals involved.
Wicks, known for his previous relationships including a six-month period with Irish model Maura Higgins between 2024 and 2025, has publicly referred to Attwood as his "best friend" and claimed to have "fallen in love for the first time." Attwood was previously known for her relationship with Gillingham FC midfielder Bradley Dack.
