Geordie Shore star Charlotte, 25, and Love Island's Max were snapped kissing in the back of a taxi after attending a Genes for Jeans party at London's Chinawhite on Thursday – but she insists they didn't sleep together.
Speaking to Star magazine, she said: "I met Max a few weeks ago at a PA in Newcastle, but nothing happened. I thought, 'God he's fit', and then I pursued him.
"I made the first move. I didn't really say anything, I just kissed him."
Discussing the events after the party, Charlotte added: "I was a woman on a mission. He came back to the hotel with me but we didn't do anything. We just cuddled."
Charlotte – who split from boyfriend Mitch Jenkins earlier this year – confessed that she wants to go on a date with Max… but she's still waiting for him to ask.
But Charlotte's happiness could be spoiled by Max's furious ex-girlfriend Jess Hayes.
She and Max won Love Island together, but split just six weeks later. Because of this, Jess thinks Max is using Charlotte for her fame.
"He used me to win the show, and I think he's only with Charlotte for fame, too," Jess told Reveal. "He's a player. So good luck to Charlotte or whoever comes along next."
