Megan McKenna ‘cools romance’ with childhood sweetheart Harry Eden on the same day the other Meghan and Harry announce their engagement
MEGAN McKenna has cooled off her romance with childhood sweetheart Harry Eden just weeks after reigniting their romance.
The former Towie star and Harry sparked speculation that they had called it quits after they stopped following each other on social media, and her rep confirmed the news telling us: “Megan is single.”
An insider close to the couple told The Sun Online: "Megan and Harry were never officially boyfriend and girlfriend, but they're not even seeing each other now."
The news that their romance is dead in the water comes on the same day their royal namesakes, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, officially announced their engagement.
Both families are delighted by the news and the high-profile couple are expected to tie the knot in the spring.
Megan, 24, and Harry, 27, first dated in 2012 but split shortly before she found fame on The Only Way Is Essex in 2016.
She reconnected with him in October, just days after her split from Pete Wicks, amid rumours she had cheated on him with former child actor Harry.
A Towie insider told the Sun's Bizarre column at the time: “Megan has always had this bond with Harry.
“It’s no surprise she turned to him when things got hard with Pete and now she’s single they’re seeing how things go before deciding whether to go for a full-on relationship.
“Pete will be absolutely distraught to find out they’ve been speaking and meeting up.
“He’s always been wary of Harry and always believed Megan’s words that they were no longer in touch. This will make him doubt whether this was the case.”
Prior to leaving Towie, Megan broke down in tears on camera over accusations she had cheated on Pete, fuelled by James Lock.

She sobbed: “I’ve never cheated on Pete. It makes me look bad and it’s not true!
"I was totally honest about what had happened [when we were on a break]. How can he sit there and put on this poor Pete act?
“I wish I’d never met him.”
She was later seen on various nights out with Harry and he was even seen sneaking out of her house, as they tried to keep their romance under wraps.
Shortly afterwards Harry's ex-girlfriend Nicola Clare hinted that Harry was in fact still messaging her, despite dumping her for Megan.
