Pete Wicks LS

Two weeks ago, our world was rocked by the news that Pete Wicks had been text cheating on his girlfriend, Megan McKenna.

We thought Pete was a gentleman! He always said that he was.

But it emerged that Megan had found messages on his phone two weeks before the recipient, Pete's ex Jacqui Ryland, told her story to The Sun.

The couple planned to work through their issues, but when more explicit messages than Megs had previously been aware of appeared in the paper, Megan had Pete had a huge row (filmed for TOWIE), and Pete apparently left Marbella where the cast were recording and was later seen filming sad scenes in a park with James Lock.

Megan has subsequently tweeted a number of angry messages that could well be aimed at Pete / the situation, as has Jacqui.

Pete, however, has maintained a social media blackout. Until now.

Earlier today, Pete posted a tweet that made our hearts feel sad.

It's a picture of his dog, Ernest, who went to the great park in the sky at the end of August.

Excuse us, we've just got something in our eye.

Will TOWIE's golden (well, brown) couple be able to work things out? Cast mate Bobby Norris thinks so.

Speaking to heat, Bobby told us: "Being psychic Bobby, I think give it four or five weeks and it'll all be fine.

"I have known Pete a lot longer than I have known Megs so I know that deep down he does have a good heart," Bobs went on.

"Megan is a lovely girl and I have been in a similar situation in the past so I know how that feels when your partner has allegedly been texting someone else.

"I just hope they resolve it."

Us too, Bobs. Us too.
