Kyle Christie thinks his ex-girlfriend Holly Hagan is a "keeper".
The 'Geordie Shore' star split from his co-star earlier this year following a number of heated rows during the filming of the current series of the MTV show in Greece, but he's now confessed he still has feelings for her.
Speaking on the 'Geordie Shore' Confession Cam, he explained: "Yes I might have flirted with Holly, but they [the rest of the cast] think that because I broke up with her, I instantly hate her. You know what? I don't f***ing hate her. I'll say it and I'm not arsed. I still f***ing love her and I fancy her to bits, I always will.
"After the whole bust up, after all the arguments and after the whole house turning against us, that girl was still there sitting next to us.
"At the end of the day, that's a f***ing keeper."
Meanwhile, the 22-year-old hunk announced earlier this week that he has quit the show after his grandad was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
He said at the time: "I had to put my family first. He's got stomach, pancreatic and bone cancer all in one. It's been hard because he's my best friend.
"If I'd gone back for the next series it wouldn't have been fair on production."
And Kyle admitted Holly, 23, had put their differences aside to offer him her support during this hard time.
He added: "When she heard about my grandad she got in touch and said, 'Can I be there for you?' She's been supportive."
