“I didn’t know if he was still in Strictly, I’m so proud of him and he’s proud of me and I can’t wait to see him.”
Meanwhile Pete threw his support behind Maura while she was in the jungle. Taking to his page, he asked his fans to vote for her to stay in camp, before Danny Jones won the show.
“I’ve been George of the Jungle [on Strictly] but now it’s time to vote for Maura of the Jungle,” he wrote at the time.
