Premier League footballer 'accused of cheating with Love Island's Meg Moore before splashing out on a £40k Audi to apologise to partner'
A Premier League footballer has been accused of cheating with Love Island star Megan Moore.
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.

I spent £37k & get fillers every week to have the biggest lips in the world…breathing is hard & people call my pout ugly
A CONTENT creator has admitted to spending over £37,000 on lip filler to ensure she has the 'biggest lips in the world.' Vienna Würstel, who lives in Majorca, Spain, and is widely known for her huge pout, claimed that strangers call her extreme lips 'ugly', but doesn't plan to stop the filler anytime soon. 4 4 4 Speaking to Truly on a recent episode of Hooked On The Look, Vienna said: "I have the biggest lips in the world, but I won't stop there and want to go even bigger." The influencer began cosmetic procedures at the age of just 18, when she first got lip filler and now, her body has 'more plastic than body fat.' She has had multiple procedures and surgery to achieve her unique look, including a breast augmentation, a lip lift, an eye lift, a BBL, as well as cheek and chin implants. In total Vienna has spent around $160,000 [£119,565] on surgery and $50,000 [£37,365] just for her lips. So dedicated to her plumped-up pout, Vienna jets from Majorca to Frankfurt to get her filler fix, as she explained: "I get lip filler sometimes every week, mostly it's between two and four weeks. 'I want them really big, really extreme. I want to really stand out." But Vienna receives a lot of negative attention over her large lips, as she admitted: "I get a lot of judgement because of my appearance. 'People film directly in my face, people scream at me at how ugly I am. I get a lot of stares." Not only this, but online trolls have urged her to 'sue' her plastic surgeon', called her look 'nasty' and claimed that her surgeon 'should be arrested.' And it's not just judgement that Vienna has to deal with - she also finds breathing a challenge as a result of the size of her pout. She confessed: 'Having big lips totally affects how I talk but also how I drink or eat or breathe. Sometimes it's even hard to breathe.' But despite the judgement, Vienna is determined to continue looking exactly how she wants, as she acknowledged: "I will never stop getting plastic surgeries because it makes me the person I want to be." Social media users react YouTube users were left gobsmacked by Vienna's plump pout and many eagerly flocked to the comments to share their thoughts. What are the risks of lip fillers? THE RISKS of dermal fillers depend on whether the procedure was done correctly and the type of filler used. The NHS recommends you speak to your practitioner about the risks beforehand. Serious problems are rare but can include: Infection A lumpy appearance under the skin, which might need to be treated with surgery or medicine The filler moving away from the intended treatment area, which may need to be removed using surgery Scarring Blocked blood vessels in the face, which can cause tissue death and permanent blindness You should see your GP if you have any complications that need medical attention and speak to your practitioner if you're not happy with the results or experience lumpiness. Source: NHS One person asked: 'What kind of beautician and plastic surgeon allows this?? Surely this is almost illegal??' Another added: 'She looks like she had an allergic reaction to something. What physician would allow this?' A third commented: 'She doesn't look human.' Meanwhile, someone else wrote: 'It looks so painful!' Not only this, but another gasped: 'That looks very uncomfortable.'

Our UK seaside village is inundated with tourists after TV show made us globally famous – it's forcing us out our home
A POPULAR TV show is forcing residents to leave their picturesque coastal village - because it has become a mecca for tourists. Residents in the Cornish village of Port Isaac have fumed that droves of Doc Martin fans arriving each year have made their town unlivable. 9 9 9 Tens of thousands of 'Clunatics' - the nickname for fans of the show and star Martin Clunes - flock to the peaceful fishing village annually. During the summer months, the town's narrow winding lanes are so crowded that locals steer clear of the historic harbour. Fans from the UK, USA, Australia and mainland Europe has turned the once quiet village into an international tourism hub. To some in Port Isaac, this has brought new opportunities including walking tours, cafes and merchandise shops. Rubber-necking tourists reportedly flock to view iconic landmarks such as the home of Martin Clunes' character Dr Martin Ellingham, and Aunty Ruth's cottage above Squeezy Belly Alley. But locals have suggested that their home has become a "victim of its popularity". Over the past two decades, house prices in the area - renamed Port Wenn on the show - have quadrupled. Mum-of-two Anne Wilce, 44, a lifelong Port Isaac resident, told how it had become "unrecognisable". She fumed: 'It is horrific, there is no affordable housing available for anybody now. 'My sons are 19 and 22 and they won't ever be able to afford to buy a house at this rate. 'Without more affordable housing in the village the younger generation will move away because there is nothing here for them. 'My house is 30 years old and it's part of the last affordable housing that has been built here. 'I don't go down to the village centre, I have no reason to because it's all second homes. "Even when something does come up for sale it's ridiculously priced - nobody around here can afford it. 'Doc Martin brought a whole load of money into the village which has created jobs for people and helped this community. "But it is also a victim of its popularity and it doesn't feel like our village any more.' Tourism has long since overtaken fishing as Port Isaac's main industry. Local businesses have thrived as a result of the town's worldwide fame. 9 9 9 John Cleave, who was brought up in the village and runs the Boathouse fashion and gift shop, agrees that the show has changed village life. "The locals talk about BDM – that's Before Doc Martin. "It was always favoured by comparatively few people who simply saw it as a beautiful, typical Cornish fishing village. "As a business you could close your doors from October to Easter and it wouldn't make a lot of difference. "Thanks to Doc Martin we now have all-year-round trade." The British comedy-drama first aired in 2004. On the outer edge of the village - next to Port Isaac's real GP surgery - sits a small housing estate containing some of the village's only affordable homes. They were constructed around 30 years ago and according to residents they were the last affordable homes built in the village. There are now just two active fishing boats remaining in the village - compared with 174 holiday lets on Airbnb alone. In the past year, semi-detached properties in Port Isaac sold for an average of £810,000, with terraced properties fetching £616,250, according to Rightmove. Shop worker Elisha Scott, 19, and her family have lived in the area for 10 years. She said: 'Nobody my age can afford to rent let alone buy a house here, all my friends still live with their parents. 'I'm not really thinking about house prices though because I don't think I'll stay here for a long time, there just aren't the job opportunities. 'Doc Martin definitely made a difference to Port Isaac, there are always fans of the show looking around the village. "What has come with that is a lot of people buying second homes here which has made it too expensive for locals.' Earlier this month a new plan was unveiled to build more affordable homes for local people. Tre Haven Community Land Trust (CLT) has started negotiations with Cornwall Council to purchase land for 25 affordable housing developments. The proposal has support from the area's Lib Dem MP Ben Maguire and local celebrity chef Nathan Outlaw. But critics point out the site sits on a main road several miles from the village - with almost no public transport links to shops or schools. Unemployed Ciaran Patching, 20, said: 'It took me two years of searching and I feel incredibly lucky to be here, before that I was living with my mum in the town. 'I would love to be able to buy my own house here but it doesn't feel like that will ever be an option at the moment. 'Port Isaac is definitely very popular in summer but in winter it can be dead. "The popularity of Doc Martin has helped a lot of businesses around here but it has made it hard for year round residents.' 9 9 9
