Pete Wicks poses for a snap with Vanessa Feltz

Vanessa Feltz and Pete Wicks came together for a beautiful photo taken last week at Buckingham Palace’s garden party as part of the coronation celebrations.

The former TOWIE star, 35, looked smart in a double-breasted suit jacket as he put his arm around Vanessa, 61, for the photo.

Vanessa shared a series of snaps from the royal day out on her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, including the photo with the reality personality.

The This Morning star looked stunning in a flowing floral dress with white lace segments, paired with a pair of platform heels.

Vanessa accessorized with a dramatic headpiece and some rose-tinted round shades.

Wow! Elsewhere at the garden party, Pete posed for a cheeky photo with his best friend Sam Thompson

Vanessa wore her blonde locks loose and in soft curls, while opting for a natural palette of makeup to enhance her striking good looks.

Elsewhere at the garden party, Pete posed for a cheeky photo with his best friend Sam Thompson.

The former Made In Chelsea kept his hand on Pete’s manhood as they brought the tone down at the royal bash.

Despite the cheeky display, Sam was clearly delighted to be invited to the event, captioning the photos: ‘We’re at Buckingham Palace!’

Their appearance comes after Peter teased a possible budding romance with Carol Vorderman, after admitting the pair shared a flirty “back and forth” on Instagram.

Last month, he admitted that he wanted to get closer to Carol and become one of her five “special friends.”

The former Countdown star, 62, has previously said she’s “not into one-night stands,” but dates five men she affectionately refers to as her “special friends.”

Pete teased fans, telling them to “watch this space.”

Speaking on his podcast with Sam, Staying Relevant, Pete said, “There’s been a lot of buzz about me and a potential new romance with Carol Vorderman – fucking all over the place.

So last week on the podcast, just as we were leaving, Sam called everyone back up for the Carol Vorderman saga, which I then retweeted — Carol and I had some back and forth on Instagram, which I was really happy about.

“Then it went into the press, all the press picked it up.”

Pete added, “It went everywhere, where it was “Carol Vorderman paired with Pete Wicks”.

“I’ve been associated with a lot of women, but none as fantastic as Carol Vorderman, so I’m over the moon.”

He then went on to call her “iconic” and revealed the flirty exchange with Carol on Instagram.

Pete said, “The last thing I said to Carol was ‘ready when you get there.'”

Sam then asked if the Countdown star replied, to which Pete revealed, “Yeah, she went, ‘Ooo.'”

“What does that even mean?” Sam asked when Pete replied, “I don’t know, I’m not sure it’s a good thing.”

Speechless: Last month, Carol was speechless when she found out that Pete was hoping to become her latest squeeze

Pete then teased a budding romance saying, “I’m just saying watch this space, you never know what’s going to happen.”

Last month, Carol was speechless when she found out that Pete was hoping to become her latest squeeze.

In her Instagram Stories, the former Countdown star seemed open to the idea in a hysterical video.

Speaking to host Holly Jay-Smith after her appearance on This Morning, Carol was told, “So basically, [Pete has] went on a podcast and he said he wants to be one of your men.”

The math whiz gasped and giggled before asking to see a photo of the tattooed reality star.

Impressed by the snap, Carol teased, “Is that official now?”

Holly replied, “Well, you have to go follow him.” [on Instagram] at least. Because they said on their podcast that he’d like to be one of your men.”

Before Carol said, “One of my special friends?” That’s hilarious!’.

It wasn’t long before Pete responded with a flirty message that read, “Ready when you are Carol….”

The I’m A Celeb star then followed Pete on Instagram.

Speaking about her love life in January, Carol said on Zoe Ball’s BBC Radio 2 Breakfast Show: “I first talked about it on This Morning about three months ago.”

“The phone lines lit up, some women said very seriously that when they got divorced they felt like they’d failed.

Is there love in the air? It wasn’t long before Pete responded with a flirty message that read, “Ready when you’re Carol…”

“People would say you can’t find anyone to love you, like you’re a failed human being. This is an alternative way and a very happy way of life.’

During her appearance on This Morning last month, Carol and close friend Fatima Whitbread revealed that they had seen each other naked in the camp during the filming of I’m A Celeb in South Africa.

Ahead of the new series, Fatima, 62, explained, “This is part of the character-building process of this whole process. It brings out the best and worst in you. You literally see each other naked, it’s stripped to the bone.’

Dermot then revealed they had a clip to show ITV viewers, with Alison quipping: ‘Hopefully not naked!’

Fatima teased the new series, saying, “We have head-to-heads so people can get knocked out before their time. The challenges are much more difficult than in Australia.

“The producers thought they had done that before, so make it more difficult. It’s physically and mentally challenging’

Carol added: ‘It’s brutal, Fatima is hardcore’

Alison went on to ask if there was any fighting or drama in the camp, to which Fatima replied, ‘It was a bit like a soap opera, there was a bit of everything’
