Megan McKenna’s highlight of ‘Celebs Go Dating’ was “becoming friends” with her ex Pete Wicks.
The 26-year-old beauty – who was with Pete before they split in 2017 – regrets drinking “too much wine” when she had to sit through “dry dates” on the Channel 4 series, but the highlight of appearing on the show was getting the opportunity to making amends with her former flame.
Speaking to New! magazine about the best part of ‘Celebs Go Dating’, Megan said:
“Becoming friends with Pete. My lowlight is drinking too much wine on my dates. I had so much alcohol during filming that I felt sick. I had to drink because some of the dates were so dry.
“It’s painful to sit at a table and start a conversation with someone who doesn’t know what to say to me. I had many awkward dates, but it’ll make great telly!
“Me and Pete are friends and I wish him all the best. I’m sure he wishes me all the best, too. I want him to find someone – we’re clearly not right for each other.”
The ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ star also insisted that she doesn’t like drama despite being known for confrontation on ‘TOWIE’, which she quit in 2017 – but admitted she would love to star in other reality show’s like ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.
She added:
“Being on ‘TOWIE’, the cast gave me a hard time. I don’t like arguing – people think I do, but I don’t. Ask any of my friends, they know I never want agg. I just want an easy life and to get on with my own s**t. So no, I wouldn’t return – but I wouldn’t say no to ever doing reality TV again.
“I’d love to do ‘I’m A Celeb’. I went on ‘Extra Camp’ and did a bushtucker trial and got six stars. But if anyone asked me to do ‘The Island With Bear Grylls’, it’d be a no. I’d die on that show.”
