Marnie Simpson still speaks to her ex-boyfriend Lewis Bloor "everyday."

The couple - who met in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house last summer - called time on their turbulent relationship a few days ago following just six months of dating because they couldn't handle the distance between them, but it seems it won't be long before things are back on between them because they're still in contact with one another.
Speaking to MTV for the first time since their split, she said: "It's just so hard because we live so far away from each other. We both care about each other so much and it didn't end on bad terms. We're still speaking every day and we're trying to come to an agreement on what's best to do, but it's just so tough being in the public eye. There's nothing else I can really say - I just don't know."
Marnie hinted that she and Lewis had gone their separate ways last week when she took to Twitter to announce that she was seeing the New Year in as a "single" lady.
She said: "'Shout out to all the girls starting the new year with a break up. Yeah, ditto."
The split no doubt came as a shock to fans as the now-former couple were spotted looking very loved up just four days earlier when they attended the gym together.
Marnie - who lives in Newcastle - was even thinking about buying a house in Essex so that she could be closer to Lewis on a daily basis and the English capital for work.
It seems she's doing all she can to makeover her life at the moment as the 24-year-old reality TV star wants to get the tattoo she got done in 2015 as a tribute to her fiancé Ricky Rayment, whom she split from four months into their engagement, removed.
Taking to her Twitter account, she said of the 'R' and heart inking she got done for the former 'TOWIE' hunk: "I need somewhere good that does laser hair removal and tattoo removal in london or Newcastle ? Does anyone have any suggestions ? (sic)"
