Watch the shocking moment Vicky Pattinson slaps Pete Wicks in the face in first look at new reality show Josh Must Win
It comes as the pair's longstanding friendship is revealed
VICKY Pattison is set to leave fans stunned after slapping Pete Wicks in the face during their new TV show.
The Geordie Shore alumni, 36, is close pals with the TOWIE hunk, also 36, so no doubt the light-hearted whack will have come as quite the surprise.
Both Vicky and Pete are two of the celebrity judges on new E4 reality TV series, The Underdog: Josh Must Win.
Joined by Love Island’s Amber Gill and DJ Nick Grimshaw, it is there mission to guide normal lad Josh to victory in a new programme.
Josh is a sweet-faced wrestler and owner or four dogs and, if he wins, the whole cast scoop a portion of the prize pot too.
Yet with such a huge cash fee at stake it’s understandable tempers would flare on the panel, who are secretly watching and controlling the action.
Now a teaser clip released by E4 shows Vicky, dressed in a red jumpsuit, slapping a wet fish around Pete’s face.
He is dressed in an orange jumpsuit and lets out a squeal of pain as the scales hit his cheek.
The rest of the stars appear stunned yet it remains to be seen why Vicky acted as she did – though it is bound to be in light-hearted jest.
The panel are tasked with bringing the prize pot up to a potential maximum of £100,000.
Meanwhile, Josh is completely unaware all of this is happening – and that he has a team of four famous faces in his corner.
Great Mates
Pete and Vicky have a long friendship and, back in 2019, fans begged for the pair to date.
They previously teamed up for a TV show which saw them take to the skies.
Pirate Pete recently told Vicky he doesn’t date women unless he sees them as wife material, in a chat on her podcast.
Meanwhile, he will play a key role in Vicky’s upcoming wedding to Ercan Ramadan.
