Despite most Love Island couples from the 2018 series splitting up, Wes Nelson and Megan Barton-Hanson seem completely solid! That was until recent rumours suggested Megan had 'disappeared' with TOWIE's Pete Wicks in a strip club during a night out.

The Sun are reporting that Megan and Pete 'went missing together for a long period of time' during a night out in September, with an insider saying, “Megan and Pete hit it off from the moment they first started talking – they both seemed keen to get to know each other better.

"At first Pete was very cautious and made it clear he wasn’t interested due to her being in a relationship with Wes. But as the night progressed they’d both had a lot to drink and were having fun – going from an award ceremony to a club and then strip bar."

BUT NOW, with rumours swirling online, Pete has broken his silence about the claims, seriously SHUTTING THEM DOWN.

Speaking to OK! Magazine at last night's Pride Of Britain awards, Pete said, “Do you know what, it’s so ridiculous. At the minute I seem to be getting links with a new person every week."

He added, “Obviously Megan’s in a relationship, seems really happy, it’s like a friendly thing. It’s turning into a bit of a pantomime. It’s just ridiculous. There’s no truth in any of it. I just seemed to get typecast of being some sort of pantomime villain at the minute.”
