Chantelle Connelly reveals her lesbian ‘relationship’ with Jemma Lucy was FAKED to make cash
CHANTELLE Connelly has revealed her romance with Jemma Lucy was fake and insists she “ain’t a lesbian”.
The former Geordie Shore star was first linked to fellow reality babe last month when the girls posed together for a steamy naked photoshoot.
The pair snogged for the cameras on a number of nights out together, with Jemma also posting lots of Snapchats calling Chantelle her “girlfriend” and “bae”.
But on Thursday Chantelle revealed the whole thing was a showmance, writing on her Facebook page: “Just to let everyone know the whole me and @jem_lucy relationship was [a] laugh since the papers started it we rode it and had the last laugh. I ain’t a lesbian.” She added two pound sign emojis.
It comes just two days after Ex On The Beach star Jemma confirmed the relationship during an Instagram Live session on Tuesday.
As fans tuned into the live stream, Jemma was asked to confirm her romance with Chantelle – to which she replied: Yes, I am going out with Chantelle.”
She also explained the lovers have been growing closer for the past few weeks, adding: “We have been together for about a month.”
The 28-year-old then went into explicit detail about their love life.
It isn’t the first time Jemma has misled her fans.
She cosied up to Charlotte Dawson last year and again confirmed the relationship on social media after the pair flirted at the UK Dating Awards in November.
She wrote on Twitter: “I’d like to confirm me and @CharlotteDawsx are officially a couple. Thank you for all your love and support”.
While a spokesman for Charlotte didn’t rule out a relationship at the time, he did tell the Mail Online, “I’d suggest it to be a joke.”
Indeed the Ex On The Beach star is now loved-up with boyfriend Matt Sarsfield and has been wearing a large ring on her engagement finger.
