Towie’s Pete Wicks was sexting TEN other girls behind Shelby Tribble’s back as she reveals heartache after split
Shelby says Pete received numerous naked images from female admires while they were dating and treated her the same way he did ex-Megan McKenna
SHELBY Tribble caught Pete Wicks sexting TEN women behind her back – two years after he did the same to ex-Megan McKenna.
Towie hunk Pete, 29, received numerous naked images from female admires despite being with Shelby and going public with their romance on the reality show.
In one of the X-rated exchanges Pete asked a woman on Instagram if she wanted to join the Mile High Club with him while complimenting a second girl on her “sexy pictures.”
Shelby, 25, discovered explicit messages on Pete’s phone the night before they were due to fly to Croatia together for a wedding.
Pete told Shelby the password to his mobile – with her feeling a sudden urge to look through his inbox as she packed for their trip.
She quickly realised Pete unashamedly messaged another woman from his sofa while she was asleep in his bed, telling The Sun: “I was devastated, I thought he was The One but after reading those texts I was left heartbroken."
In an exclusive interview she revealed: “He was sexting another girl and talking about joining the Mile High Club with her.
“Someone else sent nude pictures to him. I saw all these messages to other girls on Instagram, other texts in his archive – in fact some of the texts were sent just two days before we were due to go to a wedding together in Croatia.
“He was taking me to a friend’s wedding yet messaging another woman flirting with her saying ‘you need to stop putting up sexy pictures.’ I thought ‘is this a joke?’
“I don’t know any of the girls personally but I was aware of them from Instagram. There were a lot of messages – it wasn’t just with one or two girls, there were at least ten.”
Shelby confronted Pete on camera about messages he sent to other women behind her back at the start of their romance.
But Pete claimed his behaviour wasn’t a betrayal as him and Shelby weren’t “official” at the time while she insists: “We were still inseparable and seeing each other for five months. It’s a rule; is he thick?”
Now she’s revealed the true extent of her suffering, after learning that Pete couldn’t even resist sexting other women when they were in each other’s company.
She said: “He was doing a PA and let me know he wouldn’t be back until around 6am.
“I woke up at 9am and he wasn’t in the bed next to me and I thought ‘where the hell is he?’
“He was asleep on the sofa downstairs and said he had crashed there as soon as he walked in the house.
“But I worked out that while I was asleep upstairs he was messaging another girl explicit, disgusting messages, knowing I was in his bed.”
Pete promised Shelby he would change his ways and even claimed to be pleased she found the messages – giving him the “kick” he needed to realise he was falling in love with her.
But she explains their relationship quickly turned toxic after the trust between them was already lost.
She said: “He kept saying he was scared and glad I had found them because it gave him the kick up the bum he needed and that he was falling in love with me.
“He promised to build my trust back but he probably tried for about two weeks. Every time I asked him questions he would moan at me but I tried telling him he put himself in this position and I wouldn’t be paranoid if it wasn’t for him texting other women.”

Shelby kicked Pete to the curb on Sunday’s episode of the show after he gave her no choice but to end their romance.
And now she’s keen to meet up with his former girlfriend Megan, who endured the same pain in 2016 when Pete was exposed for sending inappropriate messages to his ex-Jacqui Ryland while on holiday with her.
She said: “I would like to go for a coffee with her. It would be interesting. She got so much s*** and me and her are very different characters but Pete treated us exactly the same way.”
