Insiders said the pair, who split for good last year, had become closer in recent weeks, despite Demi Sims, 26, revealing she was keen to get her relationship with Megan, 29, back on track.

A source said: “Megan and James seem to have this magnetic pull to one another.

“The attraction between them is pretty strong and they spent time together over the weekend discussing everything that had gone on between them.

“They weren’t trying to hide anything.”

Demi said in February: “So me and Meg, obviously we were seeing each other a few years ago.

“But we were working on a show and we were in a rush. It wasn’t how you would normally go about a relationship.

“And then it ended, and we always had this connection whether it was friendly or a bit more, even if it was friendly we’d have phone calls, we’d disappear and then we’d talk to each other."

Demi continued: “Then I came back to England and I was doing a photoshoot with her with OnlyFans, and she’s standing there in her lingerie. I’m trying to play it cool as I’m getting into my lingerie.

“It’s hard when two exes are standing there in our lingerie.

“We both smiled at each other and I could sense it, I could tell.

“We had to stand nose to nose and hold each other, and it was just one of those moments when you can feel the energy. I just knew we were going to get things back on.”

A rep for Megan said she was "still single" while a rep for James had no comment.
