Pete Wicks ‘feels like a mug’

Pete Wicks feels like a "mug" after he found out his on/off partner Megan McKenna had been secretly meeting her ex-boyfriend Harry Eden "for months."
The ‘Only Way is Essex’ stars ended their tumultuous relationship earlier this month following a series of blazing rows but, although they refused to divulge why they had called it quits, it’s believed the heavily-inked hunk found out that the brunette beauty had allegedly been sneaking off to meet her former flame behind his back.
A source told the Mail Online: "Megan has been meeting her ex in secret for months and now he feels like a mug for standing by her. Pals warned Pete months ago that Megan was still seeing her ex, but he refused to believe them because he loved her.
"Everyone told him to leave Megan but he was adamant they could make it work. It came out on the show that she had been at after parties with her ex and pals, including some of the ‘TOWIE’ cast, knew then that it was more than that, but Pete chose to trust her and believe she was being honest with him."
The 25-year-old singer reportedly turned to Harry – who she first dated before she found fame on ‘Ex on the Beach’ – after her relationship with Pete hit the rocks earlier this year and now the pair are keen to make a go of things now she’s officially single.
An insider explained: "Megan has always had this bond with Harry. It’s no surprise she turned to him when things got hard with Pete and now she’s single they’re seeing how things go before deciding whether to go for a full on relationship."
