Demi Sims reveals she's single after steamy Megan Barton-Hanson reunion

Demi Sims has revealed she's single despite her steamy reunion with Megan Barton-Hanson earlier this year.

Former The Only Way Is Essex star Demi, 26, first dated Love Island beauty Megan, 29, in 2019 after meeting and falling for one another on Celebs Go Dating.

But the pair went their separate ways and Megan began dating Chelcee Grimes and things turned sour for a while.

The pair appeared to patch things up as they reunited for a steamy OnlyFans shoot, which sparked flames for the pair again.

Demi later confirmed she and Megan were back together in February this year as she told Celebrity Skin Talk podcast of the shoot: "We had to stand nose to nose and hold each other, and it was just one of those moments when you can feel the energy. I just knew we were going to get things back on."

But, just a few months later, Demi has revealed things have cooled off between herself and the Love Islander – but this time, the pair have ended on good terms and left the door open.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with the Mirror, Demi – who did a joint interview with her sister Frankie Sims – explained: "So I was very open with it in previous... I done a podcast and stuff. We've always been single but we were sort of linking up, you know, chatting, and just spending time together. But for me, personally, I really need to focus on myself and I've been single for two years and I think I need a bit longer and that's what I'm doing.

"But I think I'm always gonna have that little flame, that little spark and, yeah, just gonna leave the book open there and we can pick up whenever we wanna pick up.

"I always want her to be happy so if she ever wants to..."

Frankie suggested: "Be friends."

Demi said: "I don't think she'll ever want to be just friends with me. But if she wants to move on I'm happy for her. So whatever happens."

Demi featured in episodes of TOWIE alongside sisters Chloe and Frankie and is now joining her siblings – and brother Charlie – in their new reality series House of Sims.

When asked what she wants to show the viewers, which she wasn't able to show in the past Demi revealed: "I just really wanna get my personality across in this series.

"I want people to know who I am because the person I started off as four, five years ago isn't [me now] I've grown up so much since then and I'm interested in different things and my personality is different, my humour is different.

"So I just want that to all come across and we haven't been on TV for a couple of years now so I'll think it'll be refreshing to see how far we've come."

It comes after Megan denied she had reunited with her TOWIE ex James Lock.

Rumours began circulating over the bank holiday weekend that the former couple were working on their relationship after being spotted looking cosy.

However, a representative for the Love Island star confirmed to the Mirror that Megan has not reunited with James and is "still single" while a representative for James confirmed he is also "very much still single".

We spoke to the Sims ahead of the launch of their brand-new reality show, House of Sims, available to stream on OnlyFans’ OFTV from 3rd May.
