Ricky, 25, and 22-year-old Marnie met in January at the National Television Awards, just two months after he and Jess, 29, split for good.
But TOWIE star Jess isn’t bitter. A source told Now! magazine: “He’s been flaunting his romance with Marnie in Jess’s face on social media and now he’s done this.
“[Jess has] been saying, ‘Good luck to him!’ laughing her head off, telling friends it’s never going to last and that Ricky doesn’t have a clue what he wants.”
The only thing slightly irking Jess, the source claimed, is the fact just seven months ago Ricky was telling her all the things he’s now telling Geordie Shore star Marnie.
“Jess knows that she and Ricky weren’t right, but it’s still a pretty cruel blow that he’s moved on so quickly,” the insider added.
It’s a good thing then that Jess has so much to distract her right now. As well as her fashion collaboration with Very, Jess recently became the face and body of Ann Summers’ new swimwear range. She’s also about to release her debut novel.
And she’s practically fighting the men off – after enjoying a brief flirtation with Dan Edgar, Jess has been getting cozy with fellow TOWIE star Pete Wicks.
