TOWIE power couple split after ‘constant rows’

And it's all over again!

They rekindled their romance in June with a make-or-break holiday to Las Vegas.

But sadly it doesn’t appear to have worked as the latest story coming out of Essex claims TOWIE power couple Megan McKenna and Pete Wicks have split AGAIN.

A source told The Sun: “After an amazing start they have been arguing a lot again and neither of them can handle the stress and pressure of constant rows.

“They are constantly falling out – there’s no guarantee that they won’t rekindle again.”

The fiery pair have had their fair share of ups and downs since hooking up back in 2016, but the latest break up will come as a shock to fans given they seemed stronger than ever.

But let’s rewind for a minute…

Megan, 24, and Pete, 28, began dating back in February 2016 but endured an explosive split earlier this year, after a sexting scandal tore them apart.

Pirate Pete was accused of sending naughty messages to another woman and it was all too much for poor Megs to get over, hence the break up.

But just a few months later they were spied sunning themselves poolside in Las Vegas on a make-or-break holiday, signalling they were back together.

They even said the time apart had made them stronger than ever, with Megan telling OK! magazine in August: “I feel like if it was going to work, we needed that proper break.

“We couldn’t be having that rubbish where you start seeing each other again after a few days.”

Pete added: “Since getting back together it’s been like a new relationship. It’s the beginning.”

Sadly that wasn’t to be.

Despite Pete being a supportive boyfriend and pining for Megan when she spent the summer chasing her music dream in Nashville, it seems it wasn’t enough to keep them together.

Neither Megan nor Pete has addressed the split claim though, inevitably, if true, it will all play out on screen.

Megan’s currently in London furthering her music career, while Pete has been over in Dublin filming TOWIE scenes with co-stars over the last few days.

If the split news is true, at least Megan has work to keep her busy.

She spent weeks in Nashville over the summer pursuing her dreams of country music stardom, which was filmed for an ITVBe reality show called There’s Something About Megan.

The series ended with Megan putting on a showcase at an iconic Nashville music venue – and being given the good news a record label had picked up her debut single.

That track, High Heeled Shoes, incredibly managed to top the UK iTunes chart on release, knocking Taylor Swift off the top spot!

An overwhelmed Megan said it was her “dream come true”.

Pete may want to watch out, though…

If Megan does indeed follow in country queen Taylor’s footsteps, he might find himself the subject of a rather unflattering song one day…
