Pete Wicks, known for his distinctive appearance and charm, made his television debut on the popular ITV reality show “The Only Way Is Essex” (TOWIE) in 2015. His relationships with fellow cast members Megan McKenna and Shelby Tribble garnered significant attention and added drama to the show.
Originally from Essex, Pete now showcases his dancing skills on Strictly with his partner, Jowitz Pretzel. A proud dog owner, Pete enjoys a quiet life with his rescue French Bulldogs, Peggy and Eric, in Harlow.
Harlow, a town with hidden gems, offers a mix of traditional charm in Old Town and modern urban planning in New Town, designed by architect Sir Frederick Gibberd. Pete is rumored to have resided in the upscale Newhall Estate in Harlow, known for its contemporary architecture and high property values.

The town boasts Harlow Town Park, one of the largest urban parks in the UK, and Harlow Sculpture Town, featuring over 100 public artworks, including pieces by renowned artists.
Harlow’s cultural scene thrives with theaters, galleries, and live music venues like The Harlow Playhouse. Notable personalities like Rupert Grint, known for his role in the Harry Potter films, also hail from Harlow. The town’s rich history is preserved in sites like The Hibberd Garden and the Harlow Museum.
Outdoor enthusiasts can explore Harlow’s recreational activities, including cycling routes and sports facilities like Harlow Leisurezone. Pete’s favorite restaurant in Ongar is a short drive away, and the vast Epping Forest offers a natural retreat nearby.
