Marnie Simpson and Lewis Bloor reportedly hooked up before they entered the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house.
The pair have grown closer over the past 13 days inside the famous abode but it seems their romance may not be as innocent as it seems as the ‘Geordie Shore’ star’s former boyfriend Ricky Rayment is convinced they shared a passionate smooch just months before they joined the show.
Speaking to new! magazine, he said: "I know that when we first broke up, within a week she was seen in a cab with Lewis, and I was told they kissed.
"Because they’ve already hooked up and they’ve got the same management, it makes sense that they’d get together."
The pair’s fellow housemates – including Aubrey O’Day and now-evicted Saira Khan – accused them of getting together as part of a "showmance" in order to keep them on screen.
However, the 24-year-old beauty’s manager is adamant her relationship with Lewis was not "pre-planned."
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Marnie had not pre planned any kind of romance in the house with Lewis. They have met once before they were even with the same agent. They were not aware of each other going into the house and haven’t planned any kind of relationship for screen time. These claims are completely factually incorrect."
Meanwhile, their relationship seemingly hit the rocks earlier this week when Lewis decided to sleep in his own bed.
