Pete Wicks in tears as he loses a beloved one
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ star shares heartbreaking news about losing loved one
Pete Wicks is in tears as he recently lost a beloved one.
The Strictly Come Dancing star revealed in the latest episode of his podcast Staying Relevant that his beloved French bulldog Peggy has died.
The 37-year-old reality TV star told his listeners that his dog had passed away weeks after sharing she was undergoing “months of treatment”.
He told his listeners, “On a sad note, because I know people will ask and it's not the point of this, the reason Peggy's not here is because I lost Peggy recently.
"It's why Eric is here with everyone here in the office, because he's been lonely, because I haven't mentioned that publicly and now everyone will ask. So yeah, about a month ago.”
While promoting his US series For Dogs' Sake earlier this month, Pete admitted he'd had a "heavy year”, and was planning to spend Christmas Day alone with his dog Eric.
Pete Wicks told Heat, "I imagine I'll sit on my own with Eric and have a PotNoodle. It's been a heavy year, so I might go away for Christmas. But I normally spend it on my own with the dogs."
