TOMMY Mallet revealed he’s no longer in touch with former pal Pete Wicks as he recalled an explosive cheating row from his time on Towie.

Appearing on the latest episode of the Down the Caff podcast, Tommy reflected on his days on the show and how Megan McKenna, 32, furiously tried to confront Pete, 37, after a boozy night out.
The pair’s tumultuous relationship was racked with cheating allegations and it eventually came to an end in 2017, though the pair went on to be friends.
Tommy recalled: “There was one time when Megan caught Pete cheating.”
Host Anna, speaking inside East London’s historic E Pellicci’s caff, interjected: “It was a few times not one time, he used to cheat all the time.”
Tommy continued: “She went mental screaming at him; we were still out. I don’t know about Pete but I was still out. I think it was like six in the morning when we’d come home.
“We used to stay in this place and it was like a council estate. I loved it. I felt so at home. It was like, one block there, one block there, one block there.”
He explained how the design of the estate and its communal garden allowed everyone to see when someone arrived.
“I think it was one of the last nights,” Tommy continued. “And we was all out and all the boys thought f***** hell she’s gonna kill me in the morning.
“Next thing we know the door bang, we’re all trying to jump off the balcony because we don’t know who it’s for yet, and we’re all like what have we done boys.
“It’s Megan kicking the door in to get to Pete, because it’s come out that he’s cheated on her. And that was live. That was direct. Straight away they got the cameras, and that there was, I reckon, 7am in the morning. That was all live. All that stuff was real.”
Anna asked Tommy if he still sees Pete, to which he replied: “Na.”
Even though he’s made millions as a shoe entrepreneur, Tommy still has a soft spot for the show calling it the “best years of my life”.
Megan and Pete initially started dating around April 2016 and things between them became more serious when she joined Towie.
We exclusively revealed how they were rocked by a sexting scandal in September 2016 that involved Pete’s glamorous ex Jacqui Ryland.

They reunited soon after and were officially back together by December.
However, problems persisted and they eventually called it quits for good less than a year later in October 2017.
Pete later dated his Towie co-star Shelby Tribble.
He and Megan would later reunite on TV for Celebs Go Dating in 2019 where they discussed their romance and break-up.
