Chanelle said: “Calum’s always texting me and he perves over my pictures online and sends me compliments.

“He literally only messaged me last week and asked if I wanted to meet up in Manchester. I said no and he didn’t message me back. When I didn’t meet him in London he threw a b***h fit.

“He’s a really nice guy but I think until he finds the right woman he will play the field.

“I thought about meeting up with him but when I see stories about him and other women…it puts me off.

“I’m not the kind of girl who’s willing to meet up just for a shag. I know I’m not the only girl he’s texting!”

It’s not just Calum’s heart Chanelle has managed to capture, with the stunning brunette admitting “Gaz Beadle and Scotty T have tried it on too.”

But it’s her fling with X Factor star James Arthur that she’s best remembered for.

Chanelle met James during a night out at Whisky Mist while she was filming Take Me Out and he was starring on The X Factor in 2012.

She remembers their time fondly and reveals she’s still good pals with the Impossible singer.

Chanelle explained: “We still speak and we still text every now and then.

“He’s so nice! He went through a playboy stage but now he’s settled down and he’s grounded!

“We dated for a few months and had a some fun while he was on The X Factor but when he won they whisked him off. I’m proud of him, he’s doing really well for himself.”

In Tuesday night’s Ex On The Beach, Chanelle makes her debut on the show and it’s set to cause fireworks.

Last week, her rift with her co-star Zahida Allen came to light when the Geordie Shore star accused Chanelle of being racist.

Chanelle hit back and claimed Zahida’s accusations were well below the belt.

Now she’s got ex Josh’s fans to contend with and she teases they might not be keen on her after the show has air.

Chanelle said: “Josh doesn’t like me because I slapped him! I didn’t want to be fake, so I told the truth and told them he had a little dick. He thinks he’s something that’s he’s not.

“I didn’t like Zahida or Becca – I thought she was a b***h. They’ve all blocked me on social media it’s hilarious!”

Speaking to The Sun Online about her claims, a friend of Calum's denied he'd spoken to Chanelle, saying: “Calum doesn't even know who she is.”
