The heavily-inked hunk has desperately been trying to persuade Megan McKenna to take him back after he was caught sending sexy messaged to his former lover Jacqui Ryland, but it seems his challenge is about to get a lot harder as the brunette model is keen to have it out with the turbulent couple on camera for the ITVBe show.

Speaking to OK! Online, Jacqui said: "If Megan wanted to meet I would do that, but I think she's blocked me on Twitter. I can understand - she was upset and angry, and a lot of that was aimed at me. I would go on the show - I don't think they'll let me on, but they should be thanking me right now- I've changed the whole story line - it's much more dramatic! I watched it last night, and it's all pretty much about them [Pete and Megan]. What was the storyline going to be if it wasn't them?"

And, although Megan is refusing to give Pete the time of day at the moment, Jacqui is convinced the former 'Celebrity Big Brother' star will take him back before long.

She explained: "She's going to take him back. I've been in that situation before - when you love somebody it's so hard to cut ties with them, so you tell yourself you'll make it work and he'll treat you differently but to be honest, I don't think you can teach an old dog new tricks. I don't think you can change him."

Pete has been crying his eyes out since Megan called time on their seven-month relationship but Jacqui thinks it's all a stunt because he's been painted in a bad light.

She said: "I think a lot of it is crocodile tears - publicly this doesn't make him look very good, and he's obviously getting a lot of stick at the moment.

"I could be wrong - he could have grown up, and realised what he's lost. I don't know what she's like, but she is a beautiful girl."
