Considering they met a mere few months ago, Stephanie Davies and Jeremy McConnell’s relationship has been more on-again-off-again since the beginning of Celebrity Big Brother in January this year than some couples have over years together.

Ross and Rachel, eat your heart out.

Now, in the latest development in their love story, the former Hollyoaks actress has spoken up in defence of her boyfriend after he confessed to CHEATING on her after he exited the CBB house.

Speaking the OK magazine about their rekindled relationship Jeremy said: “I slept with other girls because of my own insecurities, but I’m getting therapy now.

"It will also help me to deal with my fear of people leaving me.”

And Stephanie was nothing but supportive about her beloved Jezzer, saying firmly: “Jeremy isn’t the type of bloke to sleep around.

"It was just a one-night stand and he did it because he knew how bad things got between us. He felt like that was the only way to draw a line under us.”

As the public fail to keep up with their explosive relationship, the pair are determined to prove their love is real.

Stephanie recently jetted off together to Palma, Mallorca after having a huge falling out with her reality star beau.

However he hopped on a plane and followed her - reportedly armed with a diamond ring, according to some magazines.

Whatever he said to her, it seemed to do the trick, as Steph later took to Twitter to praise her man - and to promise to keep their relationship as private as possible in future.
