Pete Wicks says his dogs have become his best support during tough times while competing on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing ahead of the finals.
Pete Wicks : I prefer animals to humans All of Pete Wicks ’ dreams are coming true at once after Strictly Come Dancing . Tonight, the former Towie star, 36, is competing in the Strictly semi-final against Chris McCausland, Tasha Ghouri, JB Gill, and Sarah Hadland. No one was more surprised than Pete to make it this far, bursting into tears when Tess Daly read out his name last Sunday when he escaped the dance-off once again.
His journey has been one of the most compelling in this entire series. But while the public is backing him every week, trolls have been piling on with abuse. ‘My dogs have been a godsend to me. I’ve had a lot of stick and it’s so nice to shut off from the noise and just sit down with the dogs where I feel safe and comfortable,’ he says. ‘They don’t judge me or care if I’ve danced well. They just care about spending time with me and that’s a beautiful escapism from the intensity of Strictly.
