ok.co.uk:

Pete Wicks, the reality TV heartthrob known for his appearances on Strictly Come Dancing, has candidly shared his views on parenting, following Maura Higgins' recent revelations about her love life.

After a young fan sent him a drawing, Pete, 36, humorously suggested that parents should be more upfront with their children about their artistic skills.

He quipped, "If I ever have children, I will be the sort of father that would tell them the truth." Adding to his cheeky commentary, he said, "So, when your child brings home a picture and everyone goes, 'Oh, that's wonderful', but really you're thinking, 'What the f**k is it?', I will say, 'What the f**k is it?'" He didn't hold back his opinion on the artwork he had received, stating, "The picture I got sent last night was f*****g vile." Pete continued, "Let's stop enabling children to think their drawing is good because a lot of the time, they're bad, that's all." His remarks were made during an episode of his Staying Relevant podcast, where his dance partner Jowita Przystał chimed in, saying the controversial picture actually brought a smile to Pete's face.

Pete playfully retorted, "Well there's one thing wrong with it at the start." This revelation from Pete comes hot on the heels of Maura Higgins' admission that she's been seeing someone new, just before her stint in the I'm A Celebrity...
