Privacy Notice TV presenter Maura Higgins hit the headlines recently when she was spotted getting cosy with upcoming Strictly star Pete Wicks on a night out. And it seems the pair remain close, after Maura wrote a very cheeky reply to Pete’s post when he was announced to be joining the Strictly Come Dancing line-up for this year. Maura was replying to a share of a post on the official Strictly page, which featured a dramatic picture of Pete placed over the show’s theme colours. “The only way is #Strictly for @p_wicks01! We can’t wait to see what he brings to the Ballroom!” the post read. Love Island USA’s Aftersun host Maura was quick to post a rather saucy quip in response. “I know what those hips can do,” she said. “PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!”
