Charlotte Crosby didn’t know Stephen Bear had dumped her until she found out on Twitter.
The former ‘Geordie Shore’ star had been gushing about how much she loved the former ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ contestant just hours before he took to the social networking site to announced their split but, despite claiming he was sad by their break up, the blonde beauty wasn’t aware anything was wrong between them until she logged in and saw the tweet herself.
A source told the Sun Online: "Charlotte literally had no idea Stephen thought their relationship was in a bad way. They kissed and said goodbye when he flew to Las Vegas and he had been a great support to her over these past few days with everything to do with Gaz [Beadle, her ex].
"She’s given interviews in Ireland where she’s talked about Stephen and how much she loved him. She logged onto Twitter and saw his message, she’s in pieces and can’t believe her fairytale ending has been shattered."
Stephen, 27, who is currently in Las Vegas with friends, wrote on Twitter last night: "Sadly me and Charlotte have split up.
"We have had a good run but we wasn’t right for each other. (sic)"
The news of their split comes at a bad time for Charlotte, 27, after her former boyfriend and ‘Geordie Shore’ star Gaz revealed he is expecting his first baby with Emma McVey.
An insider said: "Charlotte is devastated after her split with Stephen. The timing couldn’t have been worse."
Charlotte, who is currently promoting her Flique cosmetic range in Ireland, broke down on live TV while thanking her fans for their support but continued to smile during the launch.
Sources close to the reality TV star said: "Charlotte is such a professional, she’d never let down her fans or those she’s made a commitment too.
"But this is so hard for her. She’s getting tearful when she’s alone with her friends and family."
Stephen’s shock split announcement comes just weeks after Charlotte got drunk and revealed the couple had ended – although a day later she backtracked and blamed the alcohol.
