Megan McKenna and Pete Wicks are ‘sweet’ ahead of Celebs Go Dating

Megan McKenna insists things are "sweet" between her and Pete Wicks after he signed up for ‘Celebs Go Dating’.
The 26-year-old beauty – who dated Pete before they split in 2017 – initially thought "it was a joke" when she heard that the dark-haired hunk would appear alongside her on the show, but she has now claimed there’s no bad blood between the pair.
Speaking to the Sun Online, Megan said: "I mean, I never thought in a million years I’d be back doing a show with Pete. I thought it was a joke!
"It’s alright, we’ve been out a few times a group of us, but let’s put it this way, if I was a viewer, I’d definitely be like tuning in. We’re sweet – the thing is it was a very awkward first scene."
Megan – who split from former ‘Love Island’ star Mike Thalassitis last year after dating for seven months – also said that although it’s "still early days", she’s glad she chose to do the show.
And despite still having some inhibitions, Megan is determined to "go for it."
She explained: "I’m so glad I’ve done this show because I’m having such a fun time. It is very eventful; I’ve never been on so many dates in my entire life! But like, it’s interesting.
"It’s still early days, there’s still a lot of filming left but I just think like, some of the boys can be a***holes, I’m like what is going on here? There’s been a few moments where I like cut things short, but you know I’m just going for it."
