Pete Wicks and Sam Thompson enjoyed mingling at Marvin Humes’ birthday party after their respective relationship dramas.

The reality TV stars, who host podcast Staying Relevant together, were seen partying the night away at London’s Savoy Hotel alongside the likes of Girl Aloud stars Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts as well as Marvin’s JLS bandmate Aston Merrygold.

Sam, 32, and Pete, 37, shared snippets of their night on their Instagram pages, enjoying a pre-party dinner with drinks.

The duo posed alongside Marvin, 40, for several snaps, with Sam sharing one on his Instagram Stories alongside the message ‘Love you brother.’

According to The Mirror, the I’m A Celebrity winner was also spotted flirting with two mystery women at the bash following his split from Zara McDermott, 28.

He was allegedly seen ‘with a hand on one woman’s arm’ before hugging another in a pink dress ‘as they stood in the foyer.’

Sam and Love Island contestant Zara were together for five years before announcing their split in December.

It has been rumoured Zara is moving on with One Direction star Louis Tomlinson after the pair were spotted holding hands and laughing as they ate and drank, seemingly smitten with each other on a day out in Suffolk.

A source told Metro at the time: ‘Sam is hurting after seeing the photos of Zara and Louis on a date.

‘He’s been dealing with the heartbreak of his split from Zara – it’s only been a few months and they were together for five years as well as living together.

‘Seeing her move on so quickly isn’t easy, but he’s focusing on himself and has a lot going on in his career going forward.’

Strictly Come Dancing star Pete, meanwhile, was recently seen spending time with reality TV star Becca Edwards following his split from Maura Higgins.

Pete and Love Island star Maura, 34, called it quits on Valentine’s Day, reportedly due to a series of arguments.

The long-time friends are believed to have started dating in August, having been spotted on a series of romantic outings and locking lips in the months following.

Pete seemingly took a jab at Maura following news that she appeared to share a kiss with Danny Jones that shocked everyone when they were filmed looking very cosy at a Brit Awards afterparty.

Maura and the McFly singer, 38, sent social media into a meltdown when the video started making the rounds, given that Danny has been married to Georgia Horsley for over 10 years.

Pete is currently on reality TV show "Strictly Come Dancing", while Maura is rumoured to be joining reality TV show "I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here", in the coming days. So it appeared the two were having a much needed night together, before Maura travels to Australia. The new couple went to watch pianist Ludovico Einaudi, and appeared to find it amusing to be spotted by snappers, as Maura laughed while they made their way to a waiting taxi.

Following Maura and Danny’s shock kiss, an insider close to Pete told OK! Magazine: ‘This sort of attention is exactly what Pete doesn’t want.

‘He’s seen this sort of media circus happen when he was on Towie and it’s not the sort of relationship he wants.’

They added: ‘It’s a shame because it will probably bring his guard back up and he just wants to find someone he can genuinely love.’

Other stars partying at Marvin’s bash included Radio One DJ Melvin Odoom and DJ Rickie Haywood-Williams, who posed alongside Sam and Pete in a selfie

The singer was also joined by his wife Rochelle Humes as well as their children Alaia-Mai, 11, Valentina, seven, and Blake, three.
