PETE Wicks hit back at 'affair claims' with Zara McDermott while his best friend Sam Thompson competes in the I'm A Celeb jungle.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
Pete addressed the claims to New! magazine stating: "I love Zara – she's a sweetheart."<\/p>\n
Regarding the rumours, Pete said: "Me and Zara find it quite funny.<\/p>\n
"That's the problem with social media everyone's got an opinion. Sam is my brother, and Zara is a very good friend of mine. We just laugh about it."<\/p>\n
The Towie star then reiterated that he would not date Zara even if she was single. He said: "I absolutely adore Zara, but she's not my cup of tea and I don't think she'd last five minutes.<\/p>\n
"Me and Sam could not be any more different.\u00a0They're such a great couple and love them to bits. <\/p>\n "It's just sad that people can't understand that girls and guys can be mates. It's ridiculous."<\/p>\n Zara rose to fame after appearing on the fourth series of Love Island. <\/p>\n The 26-year-old joined Strictly Come Dancing a few months ago before becoming the fifth celebrity to be voted off.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n With her time at Strictly being cut short, Zara had enough time to visit Sam down under.<\/p>\n Sam, however, insisted he wanted his pal Pete to be on the other side for his exit.<\/p>\n<\/picture>wick-ed night <\/span><\/p>\n
