During a recent dinner date in Shoreditch, Pete Wicks and Maura Higgins shared a passionate kiss that confirmed their budding romance.
The pair, who have been linked since August, put their relationship on display with plenty of public affection as they enjoyed a night out in London.
Despite Pete’s previous connection to his Strictly dance partner, Jowita Przystal, it was clear that Maura had captured his full attention.
As they paused for a cigarette, the chemistry between them was undeniable, culminating in a steamy kiss that highlighted their connection.
A Stylish and Cozy Evening
Maura, looking chic in a black jacket paired with skintight white flared leggings, leaned in for a sweet moment with Pete, who appeared equally smitten.
After their brief smoke break, the couple was spotted laughing together while Pete checked something on his phone.
Their playful banter set the tone for the rest of their evening together, leaving no doubt that they were enjoying each other’s company.

Maura Opens Up About Their Connection
Maura broke her silence about the rumors surrounding her relationship with Pete during an appearance on the We Need To Talk podcast hosted by Paul Brunson.
When asked about their romance, she replied, “We just get on very, very well. I adore him; he’s an amazing person.”
Their chemistry was immediate, as Maura recalled meeting Pete shortly after her stint on Love Island.
“Our humor is the same. It’s like that sick, dark humor,” she added, hinting at their playful dynamics.
Reflections on Past Relationships
Having recently ended her relationship with American stuntman Bobby Holland Hanton and previously dating other reality stars, Maura candidly discussed her past romantic experiences.
“I’ve not had a great track record in relationships,” she admitted, expressing a sense of disappointment with previous partners.
“I expect to be let down, and you can never be in a healthy relationship if I’m expecting that.”
Public Displays of Affection
After keeping a low profile since being linked, Maura and Pete were spotted at the Pride of Britain after-party, sharing a tender moment.
In a sweet gesture, Maura planted a kiss on Pete’s nose, and the couple was seen cuddling at the Grosvenor House Hotel.
Earlier, Pete showcased his dancing skills with Maura in a lively TikTok video, adding another layer to their growing connection.
A Night Out with Friends
Recently, the couple enjoyed a night out at The Ship in Wandsworth, where they were seen being affectionate with each other.
An onlooker remarked on their closeness, describing how they whispered sweet nothings and intertwined their legs while enjoying drinks with friends, including Wynne Evans, Tom Dean, and Jamie Borthwick.
The source commented on the surprising bond between Pete and Maura, especially considering his earlier chemistry with Jowita.
Complications and Confusion
The situation took a twist when Maura was seen getting cozy with another Strictly star, Kai Widdrington, during the Pride of Britain Awards.
The two looked very close as Kai wrapped his arms around Maura, even twirling her at one point.
Kai is currently single, following a breakup with fellow dancer Nadiya Bychkova, adding another layer of intrigue to Maura’s romantic life.
The Never-Ending Drama of Strictly
According to a source, the romantic entanglements among the Strictly cast members continue to keep fans guessing.
“Kai and Maura getting close while she’s still got feelings for Pete, who is now infatuated with Jowita, just sums up Strictly right now,” the insider explained.
The situation exemplifies the whirlwind of relationships and flings that have become a hallmark of the show, suggesting that the drama is far from over.
What’s Next for Pete and Maura?
With all the romantic twists and turns, it remains to be seen what lies ahead for Pete Wicks and Maura Higgins.
Their relationship is certainly heating up, but the involvement of other stars in their lives adds an element of unpredictability.
