One minute they’re on, the next minute they’re off, but it seems Jeremy McConnell may have never wanted to date Stephanie Davis in the first place.
Irish model Jezza apparently wanted an entirely different romance as a result of his Celebrity Big Brother appearance – he was eyeing up Megan McKenna.
According to Jeremy’s friend and former Beauty School Cop Outs co-star Tara Omidi, the hunk had set his sights on Megan before going into the house.
Tara told the Daily Star Online: “I think originally he thought, ‘I’ll go in there and I’ll try and get this showmance with Megan.’
“Because before he even got into the house he was mentioning Megan. I thought, ‘Why would you even go on about that before you’ve even gone in there and know if you fancy her?’”
However, Tara says that after meeting his fellow housemates, Jeremy decided to steer clear of Megan after seeing her get close to Geordie Shore star Scotty T.
She said: “As soon as he’s gone in there he’s seen Megan likes Scotty and thought, ‘Actually Stephanie’s all right.
“’She’s got a boyfriend and, you know what, that made me do well on Beauty School Cop Outs so, f**k it, let’s try it again.’
“I just honestly think it’s all tactics to see what he can get from it.”
While Jeremy and Tara were on their MTV show together, Jez made it clear he liked Tara but she already had a boyfriend, just like Steph.
And Tara claims Jeremy even used the same moves to try and get close to her as he did Stephanie.
She said: “Everything he did in that Big Brother house, even down to the lines he was saying like, ‘It’s not just friendship, it’s love’, he used the exact same lines on me.
“It was literally like he wrote the lines down, put them in his pocket and took them into the Diary Room and read it off the paper but about Stephanie.”
Ouch!
