Olivia Attwood and Pete Wicks made their first TV appearance together since those now-infamous Ibiza yacht photos caused chaos in her marriage to footballer Bradley Dack.
The pair joined Christine Lampard and Sam Thompson on Wednesday’s special edition of Loose Women & Men, where Pete was seen placing his arm around Olivia’s waist live on air. The moment didn’t go unnoticed, with Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard cheekily teasing them about their wild week away before the show kicked off.
Olivia, 34, and Pete, 36, addressed the idea of “shame shivers” during the discussion. Olivia admitted, “I hope my behaviour is not on a par with Charlie Sheen, but there are definitely things I look back on and think, ‘that wasn’t terribly well thought out.’ I don’t beat myself up, though—if I had fun, then it was probably worth it.” Pete added that he’s stopped living with regrets, saying, “Life’s too short. You only get one shot, so you may as well live it for yourself.”
But behind the banter, tension lingers. Bradley, 31, was reportedly “livid” after seeing snaps of his wife perched between Pete’s legs on the yacht. To make matters worse, his Gillingham FC teammates circulated the images in their WhatsApp group, mocking him while he trained back home.
An insider explained, “Brad knows Olivia is tactile with all her friends, but what upset him was how hard she partied. It wasn’t just one night—she went full tilt for days, barely checking in, and he was worried sick. That’s what really rattled him, not just the cuddling with Pete.”
Earlier this week, Olivia was spotted without her wedding ring during a cigarette break, fuelling rumours of a rift. But a source close to the couple insisted: “There is no issue between Olivia and Bradley. Olivia and Pete have been close since TOWIE days, and Ibiza was just a work trip for their podcast team. They were letting off steam, nothing more.”
Olivia and Bradley tied the knot in June 2023 and recently celebrated their second anniversary, but fans remain concerned. When one follower commented, “I’m afraid for your marriage,” Olivia shot back: “Don’t be. Worry about your own.”
