The on-going saga that is Chantelle Houghton and Alex Reid's rocky relationship has taken another turn after she confirmed that he did walk out on her earlier this month.
The former Celebrity Big Brother winner has admitted that the cross-dressing cage fighter left her and their newborn daughter Dolly, but has since returned to the family home.
Writing in her New! magazine column, Chantelle said: “I can confirm that Alex did leave our house last week.
"He stayed at his mum’s and didn’t come back for a week. Now he’s back but that’s all I want to say about it at the moment.”
She had hinted at the troubles in her column last week, with a source adding that she was ready to give up on their engagement.
However, despite Chantelle confirming Alex's walk out, last week he took to Twitter to deny he had left her.
He tweeted: “I never walked out!... It’s so blooming stupid and boring.”
Errr, so which is it then? *scratches head*

One Direction band member Harry Styles spends a few hours at Groucho private members club, celebrating the birthday of Nick Grimshaw, while other members of his group partied nearby without him. Harry walked a short distance from the club to Shaftsbury Avenue, where he seemed to become rather disoriented, and did not appear to know where he was going. A passing taxi full of men and women pulled over and asked him if he wanted to jump inside to escape the photographers, to which he agreed. The car then sped off with Harry inside.
