Pete Wicks

[jfletcher]

I think it’s very telling that Sam is constantly entertaining young women ( as discussed on the pod endlessly) and finally one young lady seems to have stuck around. He is clearly unable to function as a single man, and I find him needy and immature

Sam has lived his entire life with a level of wealth and privilege that most of us can only imagine. He might play down his accent to try and seem more relatable but he’s very clearly someone who expects other people to do everything for him - good on Zara for walking away if that’s what their relationship had become.

For me, Sam showed his true immature and privileged self on a recent pod when someone in their office building emailed in because Sam keeps parking in the parking space that they pay for. Rather than apologising, he doubled down and went on about how he was going to make sure to keep parking there from now on. He just came across as a wick.

As much as Pete desperately needs to start seeing a therapist, he comes across as much nicer and far less entitled than Sam.

I like Pete , I love his dog show which shows how loving and soulful he is, he was very lovely throughout Strictly, and I hoped that both these things would help him move forward and get some peace and joy in his private life. But he seems to still be struggling, if what he says is true

I have no words for Sam he is very self centred. I can well imagine his arrogance regarding the parking space. I no longer listen to the pod but will follow Pete’s career

He used that breakup constantly for views on that podcast.Pete was as bad making digs about Zara every week.Zara is much quieter online now and hasn’t spoke a word on the breakup.I feel like Sam and Pete aren’t as close as before,on the podcast they said they barely see each other apart from when the record the pod,I can see now they’ve got more popular both moving on to separate things.

I only watch for Pete but and I can see it is hard work to do because the friendship has being exploited. Too PR led and about generating numbers and cash grabs now.
Sam comes across as someone who hasnt grown up in the real world and seems in his teens with a Pete crush. Pete tries to deliver funny lines and it doesnt work like it did.
They need a break from it and to see if people want it back or is it simply just them and their PR thats making it hang around.

What is wrong with Pete ….why is he so mentally ducked up it’s getting old.Didn’t he say he was in love with someone a few months back then the next week was back banging on about being sad and lonely,he’s a Walking contradiction .No offence to Sam but what that young blonde would see in a childish boy like him is strange,apparently he doesn’t even look after his personal hygiene it’s giving paid actor.This is why I wouldn’t believe a word Pete or Sam say and are both veterans in the reality show/pr game.

Pete had everyone fooled when he was on Strictly like he had changed his ways and had matured and changed his ways.The minute the show was done he was back partying,apparently cheating according to Maura,running through young love island rejects and basically being his usual self.He obviously loves that life no matter how much he says he doesn’t.

Constant ads on the pod and nothing they’d even stand for. I mean they had Lidl a few weeks ago like either of them shop there, then the auto trader one. It’s just so false. And Sam’s accent is very watered down compared to Louise’s but he’s very spoilt. It’s quite a depressive listen now, Sam always droning on about childish things and Pete being sluggish and depressed, and the constant pushing of insufferable Pippa as well! I think I’m going to stop listening

 

[WildThings]

I think it’s extremely telling that Zara has said nothing about Sam and their breakup publicly, just moved on with Louis in her own way and all Sam has done for the last year is make comments and digs, even saying her hard launch was aimed at him and playing Louis songs at their live show at the 02. He’s an immature game playing child. I can’t and don’t know how Pete stomachs him.

Because Pete is also an immature game playing child … he just dresses like a man

 

[Intothedark]

I think when you look at Louise and what a spoilt brat she is then I doubt Sam is much different. Both of them reek of privilege.

 

[Swipeupyouguys]

Sam is definitely not who he makes himself out to be.I remember the MIC days he was a wick.
The whole Molly Mae segment on his pod was embarrassing he’s behaving like a witchy teenager.
He’s another one who needs to come out of the closet.

I was looking for Sam's thread or their (pete and sam) joint thread but couldn't see them, I hope I can put my 2 cents here I instead.
the above points are spot on imo. at the beginning of 2025 end of 2024 I watched him (and Pete) on celebs go dating and their separate series of celebrity sas. sam shown on sas is much nearer the the true sam; entitled, full of grandiose possibly due to his upbringing followed by mic fame and lazzzzy. he couldnt stand authority or followed any direction even to help his team.

Has there been media and pr training since? now he's got the whole goofball golden labrador persona going on but...no.
celeb sas that's him.

he did come across well on the (much more recent) autism adhd programme, but it also highlighted how he refuses to learn to look after himself with train times, leaving on time, packing, teeth brushing and being organised was left to the various women in his life. I hope his cleaner feeds those cats regularly! seems to be the only responsible adult left in that house.

sam cares what other men think of him above virtually everything else, was far more concerned with what Pete thought on the dating show, he dated zara as so many guys fancied her and sam was obsessed with her love island ex (yes her career benefited from him) but he is hard work. he comes across as a lazy, entitled little man that expects a gf or future wife to look after him. he's also vain, blaming his gf's for his botox and filler when it's his own desire to tweak his appearance, see his teeth, his hair/beard dye, talk of hair transplant etc

the new gf is really really insta pretty going by the pics, but he just looks like the creepy older guy standing next to her. what can they have in common? she probably views him as a much older guy to further her career (like zaras sky rocketed) while he imagines they are peers, I mean how old was she when mic was on?

If Pete and jowita are not together I find her posts really cringey. If he was her partner then I could understand them?!
But every other post and story is about him and saying something mushy, and I noticed she posts on all vickys posts saying ‘I love you’ etc - surely they don’t know each other that well?! Only briefly through Pete and now strictly. I just find it all a bit beggy!

That song on the birthday post is surely not something you would use for just a good mate

The thing is his Mum, his management , his SR team, Dogs trust Basildon and Vicky all post that they love her too they clearly see more of each other than they would have us believe and she does post about him, but in her last 20 posts he features in 3 and I think the song she used is his favourite karaoke song?
i have no idea what their relationship is, but she is very clearly a huge part of his life, his whole inner circle is very close to her . What that means is anyone’s guess

Yes I think the same! The fact that he constantly keeps saying how lonely and depressed he is makes him sound pretty single, so I’m fairly confident they’re not together!
He doesn’t really like any of her posts anymore even when he’s in them. I get the impression they’re still good friends but he is trying to distance himself from her online to get away from the narrative that they’re a couple! Some of the comments on his birthday post where he was tagged and it mentions them being together have been removed aswell!
I don’t understand how she isn’t getting the hint! I imagine he bread crumbs her because he’s lonely and likes having her around!

He needs to lisren to himself if he is a man who balues privacy and wants a relationship then a of out of the public eye. Its not hard. He says he doesnt like celebrity then simple have a private relationship. I think he would suit an older woman as he seems to be use to dating much younger women and it hasnt worked so his age or older would probably be a good fit.

I dont know how old he is Im presuming 28-31. I just lisrened his his podcast with Sam yesterday and I think it has had its day now.

He's 37 according to wiki.

Don’t get me wrong I think he’s an absolute clown when it comes to women but do you really think Jowita is that desperate.He was the one to do the birthday post for her that started all the speculation and she replied thank you politely.Any event he has like his book launch and dog events,his manager’s birthday she was there,do you think she invited herself?.He invited her to an oasis concert and then spoke all about it in his podcast and also spoke about her starting strictly and how he was going to show up.He even mentioned her in a daily Mail interview where he said she was one of the most important people in his life correct me if I’m wrong but apart from supporting him at events and liking his posts I haven’t heard her speak about him at all .He’s been saying he’s lonely and depressed from he was in Towie fs.I think Jowita is a good friend to him and obviously if he was being shady to her she’d distance herself.I mean what woman would want a relationship with a man like that.

 

[Tuesdaysdoll14]

I get the feeling with Jowita that he doesn’t want her but doesn’t want anyone else to have her. Hence why he breadcrumbs her and also was thrilled when she got Ross, and not someone young and handsome for strictly! He couldn’t handle it if she actually started fancying someone else properly!
