Charlotte Crosby has been accused of interfering with Gary 'Gaz' Beadles' relationship with Lillie Lexie Gregg.
Gary 'Gaz' Beadle and Charlotte Crosby
The 'Geordie Shore' stars have recently decided to give their on/off relationship another go but news they're back together didn't come as a total shock to his fashion designer ex, whom he split from last month, as she saw it coming.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's felt that Charlotte has been constantly stirring it up, since Lillie and Gaz got together. Charlotte's career on 'Geordie Shore' is dependant on attention and controversy. Especially as the recent additions to the cast are ramping it up a notch."
Friends close to Lillie believe Charlotte and Gary have only started dating again to get more airtime on the MTV show.
The insider added: "There's an onus on her, as one of the few original cast members left, to continue to generate press headlines and keep ratings high.
"The 'chaz' relationship was one that was a main attraction on the show, and since Gaz got shacked up with Lillie - ratings dipped and Gaz lost airtime.
"He's one of the biggest stars and he was virtually non existent in the previous series."
However, Gaz, 27, is adamant their relationship is the real deal and they're just taking things slowly for now.
He explained recently: "We've been stuck in the house for so many years and spent so much time with each other, we just needed to spend some time with each other with no cameras and no pressure, no one around us, so it kind of feels like last night was a first date but it wasn't."
