Strictly Come Dancing's Pete Wicks did not hold back as he took aim at several I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! contestants.
On an episode of his Staying Relevant podcast, Pete, who was voted out of Strictly in last week's semi-final, mentioned that his friend and co-host Sam Thompson was returning to the show after hosting I'm A Celeb Unpacked in Australia.
The conversation led Pete to discuss some of the celebrities on the show, stating: "Basically, Sam has been interviewing campmates who have been booted out. There's a few people who've gone whose names I don't remember because they didn't do much; f*** 'em."
Pete's connection to I'm A Celebrity extends beyond Sam, as his friend and rumoured love interest, Maura Higgins, came sixth in this year's show. Last weekend, McFly's Danny Jones won the title of 'King of the Jungle' with Coleen Rooney securing second place and Reverend Richard Coles coming in third.
The close bond between Pete and Sam was showcased in 2023 when Pete surprised Sam by greeting him as he left the jungle, instead of his girlfriend Zara. The two friends initially met on Celebs Go Dating in 2019, having both appeared on different reality shows, The Only Way is Essex and Made in Chelsea.
Sam and Pete's collaboration began back in 2020 and they co-starred in The Celebrity Circle two years later.
During the latest Strictly series, Pete took to the dance floor with partner Jowita Przystal. In the semi-final round, his emotional tribute to his late grandmother captured the hearts of the audience.
Pete received unwavering support from Sam, who celebrated his friend's touching moment on social media: "I think/hope you've seen tonight on Strictly the kind of guy my best mate is."
"That dance meant everything to him. Your nan would be so proud mate and putting yourself out there takes so much guts."
