The star in question is Tasha Ghouri, who is also single after breaking up with Love Island co-star Andrew LePage.

Tasha and Pete struck up a friendship during their time on Strictly Come Dancing last year.

Now they have been seen having dinner out together leaving fans convinced this is the start of a new romance.

They were seen looking cosy as they enjoyed an evening with their fellow Strictly star, Jamie Borthwick.

Fans took to Reddit to discuss the snap, with one saying: “Tasha and Pete, I’ve always kinda thought something since Strictly.”

Another added: “Ya I’ve although so too, and I think Maura did as well.”

Pete and ex Maura were friends for years before they started dating while he danced on Strictly and she appeared on I’m A Celeb.

Following their split, Maura made a savage jibe about Pete “cheating” as she left a restaurant on Valentine’s weekend.

PETE’S SWIPE

Last month Pete took a swipe at Maura after she was pictured sharing a drunken kiss with married pal Danny Jones at the Brits Universal after-party.

On his podcast Staying Relevant, which he hosts with best mate Sam Thompson, Pete told listeners: “A LOT happened at the BRITs, but we’re going to MOVE on from that and tell you about our BRITs experience.

“We then went to the Universal afterparty.”

Pete continued: “NOTHING happened there for us, we had a great time at the Universal afterparty, we stayed there a little bit, had a little f****** few drinks.”

Sam quipped: “We did it RIGHT,” as Pete chimed in: “No no, it’s not that other people did it wrong. No No No!”

Sam went on: “I meant at these parties, you don’t want to linger for too long. We got there a little bit early, got there before the crash happens, had a few drinks, spoke to loads of people and left at about 1am, which is the perfect time before everything gets a bit messy.”

Danny later released a statement on social media apologising to his family.

TASHA’S SPLIT

Meanwhile, Tasha has been moving on from her split from Andrew.

The pair met on Love Island in 2022, and seemed a strong couple.

However, The Sun revealed in January they had gone their separate ways.

A source said at the time: “Tasha was madly in love with Andrew but the cracks started to show when she appeared on Strictly.

“She gave her all in that competition. Her focus was purely on her dances with Aljaz and that drove a wedge between them as time went by.

“They talked about ending their relationship at the start of January and she’s heading out on the Strictly tour as a single woman.”

A friend close to Tasha confirmed the pair had “hit a rocky patch” and said they had broken up.
