Are Megan McKenna and Pete Wicks back together?

No, the one-time couple have never reconciled.

But they have become friends after being forced into counselling on Celebs Go Dating.

The pair buried the hatchet following an emotional chat with experts Anna Williamson and Paul Carrick Brunson before flying out to Tenerife for the show finale.

Megan and Pete's session worked and they've now ended their year-long feud - and they've even given advice on each other's dates.

At the time, Pete told The Sun Online: "Speaking to Anna and Paul is emotional, I had to hold myself back. We got a bit of a telling off.

"We've been through some bad relationships, including our own one so it makes us more sceptical about love.

"It's weird filming with Megan again, the last time we spoke we went through a break up on camera and haven't spoken since.

"One of the nicest things of us doing Celebs Go Dating is we've gone back to being mates again."

Why did they split and how long did they date?

Megan and Pete dated for about a year-and-a-half from 2016 until 2017.

The pair split after Megan discovered Pete had been sexting other girls.

They even talked of “love” until they were rocked by a sex text scandal in September 2016.

The couple reunited a few months later and were officially back together by December that year.

However, their roller-coaster romance hit the skids again in March 2017 after non-stop rows and they split again, with emotional scenes airing on The Only Way Is Essex.

The couple called it quits for good in October 2017 and Pete later dated his Towie co-star Shelby Tribble.

However, their relationship didn't last and on September 18, 2018, The Sun's Bizarre column exclusively revealed that they split because Shelby felt like a rebound after Megan.
