PETE Wicks has shared it all in the Real Full Monty, even with a very surprising guest who sat in the front row.
The former reality star turned podcaster will bare it all in ITV‘s festive special, The Real Full Monty: Jingle Balls, to raise awareness of the need to check for signs of the life-threatening disease.
Pete, 35, has now revealed that he bared it all to a very awkward guest.
He is amongst 10 other celebrities who are starring on the Christmas special, including Gemma Collins, Julia Bradbury and Ben Cohen.
Viewers will watch as Pete and fellow famous faces perform a festive dance before throwing off their costumes.
But, everyone at home won’t be the only ones watching Pete get his kit off.
In fact, one extremely unlikely guest will be sat on the front row in the audience – Pete’s mum, Tracy.
He revealed to Heatworld, when asked whether his mum was in the front row: “I think it was more awkward for her than it was for me. She got slapped around the chops with a bollock.”
Pete has also explained his reason behind doing the show, after experiencing a shocking cancer scare.
He shared that he found a lump in January, but ignored it for three months as it grew, blaming fear and male ego for not getting it checked.
The star, whose uncle suffered from testicular cancer, did finally decide to go to his GP and later received inconclusive results before finally finding out that the lump was not cancerous.
Pete told The Mirror: “It was affecting parts of my life, I was seeing someone and became self-conscious, but once I got through that stage it was, ‘Woah, if it is cancer, what would that do to my mum?’, so I plucked up the courage to stop being a big wimp about it.”
Familiar faces Vanessa Bauer, Paul Burrell and Ashley Cain will also take part in an attempt to raise awareness of cancer checks.
Like previous series, the celebrities will also be joined by hosts Coleen Nolan and Ashley Banjo.
