Olivia also told Pete she would always support him during their latest podcast. As Pete opened up about showing his emotions as he discussed crying at work. Telling the Strictly star she would support him if he felt upset, Olivia said: “I would want to support you and I would. I would hug you for like a second, but I would feel uncomfortable.

Pete replied: “And you’re not really a crier either, are you, at all? to which Olivia admitted: “I allow myself like the odd crash out. Like I give myself like five minutes. And then I have to get back to business.”
