Explosive Towie feud reignited as unearthed clip sees Pete Wicks brands ex co-stars ‘d******ds’ | The Sun
FORMER Towie star Pete Wicks has reingited his explosive feud with some of the cast after branding his ex co-stars ‘d******ds’ in a spectacular rant.
The reality star, 35, made the remarks during his Staying Relevant podcast with pal and fellow reality star Sam Thompson, 30.
Pete, who left Towie in 2021, had previously been blasted by its popular cast members, as they accused him of "disrespecting the show that made him".
In the unearthed TikTok clip of the show, which has been shared repeatedly lately on social media, Pete's co-host Sam brought up his mate's ongoing feud with his former co-stars.
Chuckling, the former Made in Chelsea star read out: "Pete Wicks embroiled in new Towie feud as his co-stars brand him fickle."
Clearly annoyed, Pete made it clear that disrespecting the show was never his intention as he's well aware of the platform it gave him.

However, he did make it clear that he does have issues with some of the cast who enjoy starting rumours and gossip.
He told Sam: "The biggest problem I have with this, is that I haven't disrespected the show at all. I haven't said anything about the show.
"We've said repeatedly a number of times, we wouldn't be anywhere without Towie, without Made In Chelsea, we wouldn't be doing what we do.
"What I have disrespected is those d***heads – so actually it's not the show."

At this point in the clip Sam begins to start laughing uproariously, loving the tongue-lashing Pete is giving his haters.
He went on: "It's not the show that I'm disrespecting, it has been for a long period of time and I owe an awful lot to the show and I love the people that make the show and the people that work behind the cameras.
"It's the people on the cameras that are a problem.
"So actually no, I haven't disrespected the show, the show's great, I love the show, it's you lot."
Trying his best to stop laughing, Sam responds with:"That is absolutely wild."
Pete continued: "You know what it is – over the years you get some people on reality TV, when you do different shows you have different people who bring storylines and different people who go on to do other things.
"And my reason for leaving Towie was that I just done it for so long and I don't have as much connection with any of the cast anymore.
"Slagging off the show is complete b*******, what happens when you do these shows is you have people who are used by producers and by other people to stir the pot."
Expanding on his burn, he explained: "I like to call them 'ladles' because they're never the soup but they are there to stir things.
"Like never the bride always the bridesmaid."
Pete stunned telly fans when he announced his exit, later admitting he didn't want to be the 'Ian Beale of Towie' and stay for too long, referring to the famous long-running character in EastEnders.
He went on to make scathing comments about "fake f***s" starring on the show.
Asked if Pete would be welcomed back to the show, Chloe Brockett told The Sun: "I couldn't imagine him coming back.

"There's no need to slag off a show that's been good to you."
