Stephen Bear admits cheating to on Jemma Lucy

Stephen Bear has admitted to cheating on Jemma Lucy on \'Eating With My Ex\'.

The \'Ex on the Beach\' star - who dated the reality TV personality in late 2016 - confessed face-to-face that he had played away from her as the pair sat down for dinner together for the BBC Three show.

Asked how he felt when Jemma confronted him, he said: "I could have lied, but I thought \'I\'m sick of lying, I\'ll just come clean\'. I didn\'t know what was going to be said over lunch.

"To be honest I forgot I even did it, I completely forgot how it ended.

"Then she brought it up and I tried to lie to begin with, but then I thought, \'What\'s the point.\' "

And Jemma - who had previously insisted she wanted to confront him over the cheating - thinks it was "quite good" that he admitted to doing the dirty on her, but wishes he had done it soon after their break up and when he "still cared" about her.

She added: "I knew he cheated, I always knew, but for him to actually admit it, even though he did it in a jokey way, was quite good. I wasn\'t looking for closure, because I knew he\'d cheated, it wasn\'t me guessing or making it up, because I had the girl tell me and prove it to me in a few ways. I knew, it was right in front of my face.

"I don\'t even want to say I\'m grateful that he admitted it - the thing is, to be grateful that he admitted it, he should have done it back when he still cared about me and had feelings, because that\'s why he didn\'t admit it then.

"But he admits it now because he doesn\'t care whether I\'m angry about it or not."

Stephen was glad he got a chance to "clear the air" with at least one of his exes, as he says every other relationship he has had has ended in a bad way.

He explained: "It was nice catching up with an old friend. I\'m happy we cleared the air and it\'s another chapter closed.

"With me, I annoy every girl and then never speak to them again. Every single girl I\'ve been with has ended badly. So for me to clear the air with one person I suppose was alright. I look back on my life and I\'ve p***ed every single girl off, I know I\'ve been out of order, it\'s not fair really."

The two celebrity specials of \'Eating With My Ex\' - featuring Stephen and Jemma, as well as Jamie Campbell, Sam Bird and London Hughes - will be up on BBC Three on March 12.
