'It's still early days'

Lillie Lexie Greg dating CBB’s Stephen Bear, says she hopes Marnie Simpson will be ‘respectful’

Ex on the Beach babe says she 'won't' be there if fella does the dirty on her

GAZ Beadle’s former flame Lillie Lexie Greg has revealed that she has found love on the upcoming series of Ex on the Beach with Stephen Bear, but could there be a Marnie Simpson-shaped spanner in the works now that he is competing on Celebrity Big Brother with her?

Fashion designer Lillie opened up in an exclusive Facebook Live chat with The Sun Online.

She said of her fledgling romance: “It’s early days, we’re seeing each other.

“We’ve spent a lot of time together since we got home and it’s probably heading [towards a relationship].

“At the moment it’s just like no pressure and we’re both really fun, it’s fun, we’re happy, we’ll see what happens.”

While the pretty blonde says she is “fully supportive” of him being on CBB, should Bear do the dirty on her while in the house, she “won’t be there on eviction night”.

She explained: I’m fully supporting in [on CBB] and if it’s meant to be then it’ll be and he won’t get up to anything on the program.

“We had a chat before he went in. He wants to be with me, he wants to make it work and I was just very much like,’ well, obviously it’s a massive opportunity, go and enjoy yourself and if it’s meant to be it’ll be’.

“Let’s just hope he can keep his hands to himself [or] I won’t be there on eviction night!”

Despite the show only beginning last Thursday, Geordie Shore star Marnie Simpson has already shown an active interest in Bear which hasn’t gone unnoticed by Lillie.

She said: “Bear’s gorgeous, he’s the type of character that everyone just fancies because he’s so confident and cheeky, I knew the girls would fancy him.

“The thing is Bear and I aren’t official, it’s early days I don’t really know what [Marnie] knows.

“I’m pretty sure she knows that we’re seeing each other so I’d hope she’d have a bit more respect, but I don’t know.”

Ex on the Beach starts Tuesday August 16 at 10pm on MTV.
