As Strictly Come Dancing heads another step closer to reaching its climax, one celebrity is now facing the risk of being eliminated in the quarter-finals.
Last week, fans bid a heartfelt farewell to Jamie Borthwick, who was eliminated alongside his professional partner Michelle Tsiakkas.
It was the first time the EastEnders star found himself in the bottom two, however, the judges unanimously decided to save Montell Douglas following her third dance-off of the series.
Now, former TOWIE star Pete Wicks is in danger of leaving this weekend, according to the latest betting odds. The 36-year-old, who is partnered with Jowita Przystal, is at 3/5 of exiting the competition after Musicals Week.
Despite avoiding the dance-off once again last week, Pete's days may be numbered as BetMGM have him down as the favourite to be shown the exit door.

Montell, who avoided elimination once again during last week’s episode, is the next closest contender at 5/4 with the leading bookmaker.
UK Director at BetMGM, Sam Behar, said: “Pete Wicks looks set for his last dance on Strictly this weekend as we are seeing lots of money on the former TOWIE star to be the next eliminated.
“He’s currently the heavy favourite to be the next to exit the show at 3/5 with former Olympian Montell Douglas currently at 5/4."
After the results show, Pete took to social media to thank fans for their support and even apologised as he compared himself to his fellow celebrities.
He began: "Firstly, THANK YOU, I never expected to be anywhere near a quarter-final of this show and the fact that I am is purely down to you at home."

“I’m not sure why you’re voting (for me)," he admitted, but added: “I’m so thankful that you are.”
Overcome with gratitude, the reality star gushed: “I could thank every single one of you individually.”
Later in the post, he said: "I know I’m not as good as the rest and I’m sorry for that but I’m trying my best, we all are. I'm not a dancer, I'm not a performer, I'm just a bloke trying to get a little bit better each week."
The TV personality went on: "I have put everything I can into this for the past 3 months, I’ve thrown myself at it and I feel very blessed to be continuing this rollercoaster with Jowita."
Pete and Jowita will be returning to ballroom routines as they are set to dance a Waltz to 'Somewhere' from West Side Story in the quarter-finals.
