ITV I’m A Celebrity's Danielle Harold gets close to Pete Wicks at boozy party
I'm A Celebrity star Danielle Harold has reportedly been seen getting close to former TOWIE star Pete Wicks.
Pete, who had an emotional reunion with best pal Sam Thompson in the jungle, was seen with the ex-EastEnders actress as they joined other stars for an event at Cali Beach. The pair were seen getting close, with onlookers describing the two stars as "incredibly cosy" with lots of cuddling as they "acted like a couple".
The event also saw celebrities from this year's series including First Dates star Fred Sirieix and Nick Pickard as well as Marvin Humes and his wife Rochelle.
A source told The Sun: "Danielle and Pete were incredibly cosy. They were cuddling a lot and were very tactile. They acted like a couple." The pair were also seen playing around with the onlooker adding that Danielle "jumped" on Pete's back at one point and they posed for pictures together. Pete was also seen making friends with Danielle's family at the hotel as her mum Lisa Marie and stepdad supported her in the jungle before she was eliminated. When asked about her relationship with him, Danielle simply said: "I know Pete from outside. Me and Sam are incredibly close and I said to him that Pete and my mum were going to get on like an absolute house on fire."
Danielle's friendship with campmate and Made In Chelsea star Sam is something she's been vocal about since leaving the jungle. In an exclusive interview with The Mirror, she said: "Sam was the first person that I spotted in the helicopter place when we did the tower trial[Pole Position] at the beginning and we just clicked instantly.
Sue Cleaver feels 'more empowered' as she labels her 50s her 'happiest decade'"Sam is just my new brother. He is only calm when he's sleeping. He has a little cheeky nap. We laugh, I say oh you’re at 80 percent and then he’s like NAP and then ten minutes later he’s charged up to 100 percent and then he’s like a little bunny rabbit running around."
She added: "He’s a superstar, if you’re dipping you haven’t got a choice, he’s there for you just charging you up again. He’s a superduper bloke. You don't go in thinking you'll be making crazy friendships and I truly have made friends with everyone in there to have 12 best mates. It's just incredible."
