Strictly Come Dancing star Pete Wicks expresses disappointment at not reaching the final, emphasizing his partner Jowita Przystał's deserving presence on the show's finale stage.
Strictly Come Dancing star Pete Wicks says he is 'gutted' for professional partner Jowita Przystał after the pair failed to reach the show’s final. Former The Only Way is Essex star Pete, 37, and professional ballroom dancer Jowita, 30, were the 11th couple eliminated from Strictly last month. It meant the pair narrowly missed out on a place in the final.
Instead, JB Gill and Lauren Oakley, Sarah Hadland and Vito Coppola, and Chris McCausland and Dianne Buswell competed for a chance to lift the Glitterball Trophy on the BBC show. It was Liverpool-born comedian Chris, the show’s first blind contestant, who eventually emerged victorious. While Pete admits he never thought he was going to win the series, he would have liked Jowita to have the chance to perform in the final. Speaking to Heat magazine, he said: “I always said I wasn’t there to win it. “I was gutted for Jowita though, because I think she deserved to be in the final. She deserved it so much for dragging me through the number of weeks that she did.” Being eliminated just before the final meant the pair never got to perform a show dance in the final. Although, Pete says he would like to get the chance to perform one in the future, adding: “It’s something that means a lot to both of us.” Pete, who admits dancing is “not my forte”, but says he did enjoy the experience. He describes the entire show as “really, really beautiful”. And while he did miss out on the final, he was pleased to see former Love Island star Tasha making it through alongside JB and Chris. Pete in fact says there is “no one” he would have rather lost a dance off too, because Tasha is a “beautiful person” and a “beautiful dancer”. Writing on Instagram last month, Pete said: “I couldn’t be happier with the way it ended, there is no one I would have rather been in a dance off with than Tash
