Grant Coulson, star of Towie, is said to be upset after finding that his partner Scott kissed a woman only days after coming out.
The 31-year-old disclosed his new romance last week, saying he was ‘finally happy’ after sleeping over 30 women to live up to the MTV reality show’s ‘alpha male’ heterosexual characters.
However, it has been reported that their relationship is now on the rocks after Scott, whom Grant previously regarded as “the one,” was caught kissing a woman.
Grant appears to have deleted all traces of Scott from his Instagram account after allegedly being distraught after seeing the photos.
‘Grant has been left devastated by this. He was out supporting his brother DJ’ing and was told Scott had kissed a woman. He’s seen pictures of it and can’t believe it just days after they went public,’ a source told The Mirror.
Grant had previously told The Sun he was living with Scott and their dog Hugo and had planned to marry him in the future.
‘He just brings out the best in me and I bring out the best in him,’ he added about Scott.
Grant explained that after coming out as gay he felt ‘more comfortable’ within himself.
‘For years I hid the real me and now I am finally happy, I feel like everyone needs to know the real me. I feel like I have been hiding myself for such a long period of time, it just a bit of a weight lifted off my shoulders,’ he said.
‘I think I have known for years but more people are more open to it now. It’s not the 1800s, no one’s really bothered anymore.’
Grant also stated that declaring his sexuality on Geordie Shore would have ‘ruined the chance’ because the show was filled with ‘alpha male’ heterosexual guys.
He continued: ‘And that’s the kind of people they wanted on the show at the time, yeah. So I had to go along with that, it wasn’t who I was but for so long I had to pretend to be that kind of thing.

Grant said he was hospitalised, fought with anxiety and avoided socialising for months because he was ‘lying’ and ‘becoming a person I’m not’ before coming out.
Grant, who starred on Geordie Shore in 2014 and had a relationship with Chloe Ferry before returning in 2018, allegedly said on This Morning that he was “too famous to work.”
However, his statements were not well received by the broader public, with someone afterwards tipping decaying fish guts on his beautiful new Mercedes.
