Pete Wicks has revealed his 'struggle' as he heads into another week of Strictly Come Dancing, as Maura Higgins continued to show him her support - even from the I'm A Celebrity...

Get Me Out of Here jungle. The reality star is currently back in training after he and his professional dance partner Jowita Przystal made it through to the quarter finals of the BBC One dance contest.

Pete kicked off the latest live show on Saturday night (November 23) with an elegant tango. Dressed in an all-black suit, podcast host and former TOWIE star Pete guided and dipped his professional partner Jowita across the dancefloor to Easy Lover by Philip Bailey and Phil Collins, with the performance landing them a score of 29 out of a possible 40 points from the judges.

But speaking on Strictly spin-off It Takes Two, Pete said it was the "biggest shock" he'd had so far in the competition and that he wondered whether there had been a mix-up.
