Premier League footballer 'accused of cheating with Love Island's Meg Moore before splashing out on a £40k Audi to apologise to partner'
According to reports, the sportsman allegedly hooked up with the 25-year-old payroll specialist shortly before she jetted off to Majorca to join the ITV2 dating show.
It is said that the football ace, who has not been named, went on to buy his partner a £40,000 Audi as a way of an apology amid the accusation.
The Sun reports that Megan (known as Meg) and the footballer were seen getting 'increasingly tactile' as they downed shots together on a night out, while his girlfriend remained at home.
Friends of the girlfriend were said to have informed her of the footballer's actions after Meg had already flown to Spain to film Love Island.
However, she was reportedly cheered after her partner purchased a brand new motor 'straight off the garage forecourt' as an 'apology gift'.
A source told publication: 'The footie ace and Megan have known each other since they were teenagers. At the start of June, days before Meg left for Love Island, they were out with mutual friends and met in a pub.
'Megan and him had a few drinks together and started doing shots. They were side-by-side all night.
'Everyone went out into town, but the two of them veered off from the group and went back to Meg's place. They spent the night together.'
The insider added that the girlfriend and her pals have been tuning in to Love Island and have been voting against Meg 'at every opportunity'.
They went on to add that the WAG and the sportsman, who've been together for over a year, are 'still together', but she 'feels worthless' following his alleged dalliance with the Love Island beauty.
MailOnline have contacted Premier League, Football Association and Love Island representatives for comment.
Meanwhile, on Love Island, Meg has been enjoying a romance with another footballer, Dejon Noel-Williams, 26.
The blonde beauty coupled up with the professional footballer from London on day one, with their relationship facing plenty of ups and downs since.

The pair have been embroiled in a number of rows, most recently amid comments of a threesome between bombshells Toni and Yasmin.
However, the couple have so far stuck together, with Meg seemingly forgiving Dejon for his flirty antics.
Ahead of joining the villa, Meg revealed how she dropped out of last year's series.
Meg had applied for 2024's season but didn't end up entering the villa. Now, she has admitted she 'felt like I wouldn't really have fitted in'.
The 25-year-old from Southampton continued living her normal life until she was approached again this year and thought, 'what have I got to lose?'
She explained: 'So I applied and did a few Teams interviews or Zoom and then I went up to London, and obviously met the casting, had an interview with them.'
Meg was then kept up to date with things about the show in a WhatsApp group where she would say who she 'fancied' and who her 'top three' would be.
'Then it just got to the point where I felt like I wouldn't really have fitted in, like I just didn't really think, yeah, we'd really get on with that person,' she admitted.

'So they always kept me in the loop and then it just all happened really quickly, to be honest,' Meg added.
'I didn't really think about it, I was still living my normal life. So then obviously, it come around again this year and then they said, 'Meg, would you go for it again?' And I was like, 'Well, nothing's changed',' she revealed.
The new islander went on, 'We've been on no dates, I'm still single, so what have I got to lose?'
This series marks the tenth anniversary of the ITV show and despite there being plenty of stars in the villa, Meg admitted she hasn't really 'looked up' to any of the previous islanders and celebrities.
Instead, she feels like 'you just have to be you' and get to know others for who they really are.
'I think you take you for you, and I think that's what people need to do, and that's what I'll be doing anyway, because I don't think you should change for anyone,' she added.

Millionaire family who blow £40k per holiday muck out sheep on Lancashire camping trip, in Rich Holiday, Poor Holiday
A MILLIONAIRE couple, who have £2500 a week in disposable income were left horrified when they had to muck out alpacas as a "fun" activity on Channel 5's Rich Holiday, Poor Holiday. After giving the Leaf family a glimpse into their lives by taking them to a hotel in Malta that cost more per night than their monthly rent, the Dissont family were whisked off to rural Lancashire for a budget break. 3 3 Health and Aesthetics clinic owners Sam and Andre, who earn up to £80,000 a month, blow up to £40,000 on a single break, so they were less than impressed by the Leaf's glamping holiday, with Andre describing the glamping pods as akin to a "sewage silo." "It's smaller than some of the bathrooms in the hotel's we've stayed in", said Sam, who is used to five star luxury. "I've never been on a holiday where I could touch all four walls at the same time", Andre admitted. The couple and their 14-year-old daughter were immediately unsure whether they would be able to hack the trip. "There's no holiday feel to it, it's just endurance", said Andre, after having to lug his suitcase across a muddy field. The posh family, from Cheshire, who blew £155 on a guided tour in Malta, were shocked to find that the same cost was their entire spending budget for the four-day Lancashire trip. "That is so tight", Andre fumed. "We spend that much money just on getting to the airport." The holiday doesn't get off to a great start, with Sam moaning about the cold temperatures and the fact they're "stuck in a field", with nowhere to go. The couple were horrified by the communal bathroom, and couldn't believe that they had to cook food for themselves. Inside 'real-life Love Island' where super-rich 'drop £3k a day' and kinky clubs sweep up boozy Brits booted out from Ibiza "When it comes to a holiday, I want to be catered for", Andre said. Sam completely refused to use the shared shower and decided to fast rather than eat a breakfast of eggs on toast. Activities on the trip included volunteering with alpacas and paddle boarding, which Andre described as "holiday hell." And although the family did enjoy cuddling the animals, they were less than impressed when it came to mucking them out. Top Hacks for Holidaying with Kids IF you've got plans to go on holiday with your little ones this summer, here's some advice to take on board. Plan Ahead: Book accommodations with family-friendly amenities. Research kid-friendly attractions and activities. Make travel arrangements that accommodate your children's schedules. Pack Smart: Create a packing checklist to ensure you don't forget essentials. Pack a mix of familiar and new toys to keep kids entertained. Bring snacks, extra clothes, and emergency supplies in your carry-on. Travel Comfort: Use neck pillows and blankets for a more comfortable journey. Download movies, games, and music on tablets or phones. Schedule travel during nap times or overnight to maximise sleep. Stay Organized: Use packing cubes to keep clothes and items sorted. Keep important documents, like passports and tickets, in a dedicated folder. Utilise apps for itinerary management and navigation. Engage and Entertain: Plan interactive activities like scavenger hunts or travel journals. Explore local parks, playgrounds, and kid-friendly museums. Involve kids in trip planning to get them excited and engaged. Maintain Routine: Stick to regular meal and sleep times as much as possible. Bring along comfort items, like favorite blankets or stuffed animals. Allow for downtime to avoid overstimulation. Stay Flexible: Be prepared to adjust plans based on your children's needs and moods. Embrace the unexpected and make the most of impromptu moments. Keep a positive attitude to set the tone for a fun and memorable trip. These hacks can help make your holiday with kids smoother, more enjoyable, and will ensure that you return home with wonderful memories! "I work hard anyway, I don't need to do that when I'm on holiday", Andre fumed. The Dissont's couldn't wait to get home to their huge mansion, after admitting that their perspective on budget holidays hadn't changed. However, daughter Kasia said she enjoyed the £900 Lancashire break just as much as the £16,000 Malta getaway. The rich family showed their generous side though, by offering to pay for the Bolton-based Leafs to go on holiday to Greece. "You totally deserve it", they told the "selfless" family. In floods of tears, the grateful family said the gift was "incredible".
