Throughout the day, a tearful Megan had admitted she was scared of seeing her ex later on at the launch of James 'Lockie' Lock's new bar, breaking down in tears whenever their split was raised.
Yet the CBB star found the courage to approach her former flame during the event, with the pair both admitting it was an 'awkward' encounter.
Megan sighed: 'I don't want it be awkward, it's weird being in the same place as you.'

She began: 'Now we're face-to-face I want to say...' but was cut off by Pete jumping in with 'I don't want to hear it.'
Visibly hurt by his comments, she snapped back: 'F**ks sake, why you trying to shut me down?' but softened as he replied: 'You're single, you don't need to explain anything to me.'
Whilst he was referring to rumours that Megan had been 'all over' her ex-boyfriend moments after she split from Pete, she remarked: 'It's not about that. I just wanted to say when I was with you I was 100 percent faithful.'
She added: 'It's just a shame it never worked, because I felt like it could have. It's hard standing here. I didn't think we'd get to this point. It got weird and it was s**t'.

Megan and Pete have been locked in a convoluted love story since she entered the structured reality programme in March last year, with their dramas captivating viewers following many bumps in the road.
The most shocking twist in their romance came last September when he was outed for 'sexting' his ex-girlfriend Jaqui Ryland, in which he sent messages stating he 'wished he didn't have a girlfriend' - naturally to Megan's chagrin.
After mending their relationship, he admitted the scandal was hanging over their heads as Megan admitted in a recent episode of TOWIE that she constantly thinks of the betrayal particularly when they argue.
Remorse: Megan reasoned ''It's just a shame it never worked, because I felt like it could have. It's hard standing here. I didn't think we'd get to this point. It got weird and it was s**t'
Whilst they have called an end to their romance, the pair were pictured having a blazing row on the street this week, in which Megan had to be physically restrained by security.
Sources claimed during the row in the street Megan accused Pete of being unfaithful while staying in Scotland, presumably during his solo mini-break he took in January after a blazing row with Megan at the NTAs.
The other woe said to be facing their relationship is claims he has 'grown close' to Chloe, after images emerged of the duo looking extremely close at London's Mayfair Hotel last month.
There is no evidence to suggest Chloe was the cause of their split.
