Former Love Island contestant Megan, 29, and The Only Way Is Essex star James 36, began dating in 2021 before their on-and-off relationship finally ended ‘for good’ last year.
However, the pair appeared close during a recent trip to Marbella where the pair enjoyed an evening of cocktails alongside pal Dan Edgar.
Megan and James were spotted laughing with each other, with James also sharing a hug with newly single Dan following his split from ex-girlfriend Amber Turner last month.
Despite their close display and planting a kiss on her cheek, James has insisted the pair are very much just friends, saying they still meet up and ‘enjoy each other’s company’, but are not back together.
He revealed that Megan is ‘very much doing her own thing’ and that he is also very ‘happy’ doing the same.
‘Me and Megan are just friends. That’s it we are just friends. That’s it,’ James told MailOnline.
‘I think sometimes people see us together and say you can’t be friends with an ex. You can be, you can be friends with an ex. When I see her we enjoy each others company and we have a laugh, we have a drink, we reminisce about other things.
‘It’s not like you’re talking to an ex and your getting back with them, people jump to conclusions. She is very much doing her thing, I’m doing my thing and we’re both happy which is the main thing.’
Megan has since been romantically linked to Towie star Demi Sims, 26, four years after the pair called it quits on their relationship.
Back in February, Demi shared a clip featuring Megan with her 233,900 TikTok followers, writing over the footage: ‘Convincing your ex to get back with you’ and captioned the clip: ‘hehe xxx.’
Demi mimed along to a Jacob Jeffries’ track, telling Megan: ‘It would be so awesome, it would be so cool.’
‘But we’re still dating other people, it’s still early days, and we’ve still got more of the show to film.’
However, the pair split in the same year with Demi going on to be linked to Too Hot To Handle’s Francesca Farago.
