Houghton, Preston back on?

Former lovers Chantelle Houghton and Samuel Preston are reportedly dating.

The pair have now been seen on a number of dates including one last Sunday at Preston’s flat in Brighton, reports the Sunday Mirror.

A source told the newspaper: "No one can believe they’re seeing each other. Everyone thought the marriage was dead.

"She’s been calling and texting him, begging for another chance.

"He’s also been realising how much he missed her."

The insider continued: "It’s early days, but they’ve met three or four times.

"She’s really keen, but stood him up a couple of times, apparently to keep him on his toes."

Houghton and Preston met on Celebrity Big Brother in 2006, got married and then divorced after a year.
