Wes Nelson and Vanessa Bauer reportedly enjoyed a 'secret fling' behind Megan Barton Hanson's back

Megan and Wes broke up at the beginning of the year after Megan claimed that Wes' Dancing on Ice partner, Vanessa has interfered with their relationship.

Megan also accused Vanessa of tactfully breaking up with her boyfriend in time for the live shows with Wes.

And now a source has claimed that Vanessa and Wes - who are now both single - enjoyed a fling ever since their Dancing on Ice rehearsals at the beginning of the series, when Wes and Megan were still together.

"Wes and Vanessa were instantly attracted to each other, you only had to be in the same room as them for a minute to see sparks were flying.

"But it wasn't long before Wes decided he would rather stay single. He is the man of the moment and fast becoming a household name.

“Girls are queuing up to knock on his door. The last thing he needs is a serious relationship. Vanessa has come to accept it.", a source told The Sun.

The insider added, “This has been really awkward but they are both being professional and getting on with it. They know that the Dancing On Ice trophy is theirs to lose."

Alex Bowen

Zara Holland was stripped of her Miss Great Britain title after a romp with Alex Bowen within HOURS during the second series. But Alex pied her off pretty much immediately for Olivia Buckland. However, this rat might have redeemed himself, as he proposed to Olivia in 2017 and the pair are set to marry in 2018. Rat Rating: 6

Rykard Jenkins

Rykard Jenkins - who had been cracking on with Rachel Fenton - had sex with Olivia Buckland in the bed next to Rachel while she slept. EWWW. The pair kept it a secret, until Caroline Flack broke the truth to Rachel about what happened between the sheets. But Rachel and Rykard stayed together for 18 months after the show ended. We're assuming they didn't share a bedroom with anyone else this time. Rat Rating: 8

Terry Walsh

Tattooed Terry Walsh cracked on with newcomer Emma-Jane Woodham within HOURS of girlfriend Malin Andersson being booted out of the villa. The cheating pair then went on to have sex in front of the other contestants (which he'd already done with Malin). Sophie Gradon commented: "She was riding him like a bucking bronco." Apparently, Emma-Jane was the 502nd person Terry had slept with. Not that he's counting. Rat Rating: 9

Tyla Carr4 of 7

Tyla Carr

Tyla Carr sobbed when Jonny Mitchell gave up his place so that she could stay in the villa. She gave him an emotional goodbye and asked him to wait for her on the outside. It took exactly three days for her to forget all about him and hook up with Muggy Mike Thalassitis. The public were NOT impressed, and viewers voted the pair out a week before the final.Rat Rating: 7

Marcel Somerville

Things looked good for couple Marcel Somerville and Gabby Allen...until they left the villa. Nine months later, Marcel had sex with another girl while the pair were on holiday and Gabby was downstairs in the hotel gym. OUCH. Suffice to say, the couple are no more.Rat rating: 10

Adam Collard6 of 7

Adam Collard

What is a Love Island love rat list without Adam Collard? Although, technically, he's probably more of an oily snake. Within a month, Adam ditched three girls before moving onto the next (Kendall Rae-Knight, Rosie Williams and Zara McDermott). His regularly used line 'I'd be lying if I said I wasn't attracted to her, like' when new girls enter the villa, has become a meme in its own right. His unacceptable actions include dumping Rosie for Zara just hours after 'doing bits' in bed with her.Rat Rating: 8

Megan Barton Hanson7 of 7

Megan Barton Hanson

Muggy Megan Barton Hanson went straight for Wes Nelson hours after dumping Eyal Booker, despite the fact he was coupled up with her pal Laura Anderson. Within 24 hours, she was snogging him in bed (that's one fast rat). THEN Megan played about 20 guys against each other in Casa Amor before deciding to cheat on Wes with new boy Alex Miller. What will her next muggy move be? Rat Rating: 7
