Reality star Pete Wicks has some harsh relationship advice to offer: ‘Do it by text’. The 36-year-old Towie star has amusingly taken on the role of a relationship advisor in a campaign where he, self-dubbed as ‘Cupid’s Nemesis’, provides tips on how to swiftly end a relationship if it’s not working out.
In a humorous video, Pete is seen frolicking around an estate reminiscent of Saltburn with his butler Bertie, even getting a fake heartbreaker tattoo, while emphasising the simplicity of quickly ending a relationship.
According to a new study commissioned by Sky Mobile, May 1 is the day when people are most likely to be dumped, with nearly seven out of 10 Brits (69%) agreeing that it’s the best month to break up. It’s considered the ideal time for a fresh start, particularly as over eight in 10 Brits prefer to be more ‘carefree’ during the summer.

However, breaking up isn’t easy and over half of Brits (56%)) prefer to break up via text to avoid confrontation.
In the spoof video, Pete suggests, “It’s not that hard! The golden rule? Do it by text. No need for all that conversation, begging you to stay malarkey”.
TV heartthrob Pete Wicks quipped: “Don’t worry everyone, I’m only breaking the hearts of mobile networks this summer. Cutting the cord can be hard, but when breaking up with your mobile network it’s all over with a text. Trust me it’s no hassle and no drama. No love lost – this summer is all about you moving on to something better.”
A whopping 41% of those surveyed are itching to ditch their current mobile phone provider. When hunting for a new mobile contract, a massive 87% value flexibility above all, with 86% craving the freedom to tweak data plans according to their needs and 69% wanting the option to swap phones mid-contract.
Amber Pine at Sky Connectivity remarked: “The first of May symbolises new beginnings and fresh starts. Just as Brits get ready for a summer of fun, it’s the perfect time to text-to-switch to something better for you. Sky Mobile is all about flexibility and freedom, we’re the only network that lets you change your plan and your phone to suit you.”
Sky Mobile is rolling out some cracking break up deals on select data plans this May. To make the switch, simply fire off a text with PAC to 65075 and snag your switching code.
