TELLY hunk Pete Wicks was threatened by a furious cage fighter who accused him of sending flirty texts to his ex-girlfriend.
Geordie Shore star-turned-MMA fighter Aaron Chalmers had warned the Towie favourite to stay away from influencer Talia Oatway — saying he would “take your f***ing head off”.
Hardman Aaron, 37, believed Pete was hitting on his former girlfriend Talia, with whom he has three children.
He was so incensed, he raged: “Let’s pray we don’t come face to face cos I’ll take your f***ing head clean off.”
The messages, which Aaron put online for several hours before removing, included him telling Pete: “So messaging my baby mom is clever.
“Giving it big man ting to mother of my kids trying to get a ride.”
Aaron and Talia, 33, got together in 2017 and split in 2022 but remain close.
The pair have been praised for the positive way they co-parent but they have a stormy relationship, often posting digs at each other on social media.
Pete, who found fame in The Only Way Is Essex and recently appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, had a public split with ex-Love Islander Maura Higgins this year.
Their break-up was revealed on Valentine’s Day when Maura, 34, stepped out in London with pals.
She directed a jibe at Pete as she left a restaurant with hairstylist Carl Bembridge.
When asked where Pete was, she cuttingly said: “Dunno, probably cheating.”
Ladies’ man Pete, 37, has been seen on the arm of glamorous co-stars including Jess Wright, Megan McKenna, Shelby Tribble, Megan Barton-Hanson, Chloe Sims, Ella Rae Wise and Danielle Harold.
Aaron, who has starred in Ex on the Beach, is now focused on his MMA fighting career.
Sources close to Talia said she had never had a relationship with Pete and that he had sent her friendly texts a while ago.
Her spokesperson declined to comment.
Agents for Aaron and Pete were contacted for comment.
