But following their split, Megan enjoyed several high profile romances with women.
Megan dated The Only Way Is Essex’s Demi Sims before falling for singer-song writer Chelcee Grimes.
She and Chelcee enjoyed a relationship for several months before suddenly deleting each other from social media.
Megan, however, has now described this period in her life as a “phase”.
Speaking with her good pal Vicky Pattison, Megan was asked whether she is bisexual.
But she told Vicky: “I would say, really the last year or so, predominantly men.
“I don’t rule anything out and for me it’s more about the connection I have with a person.
“If we have similar interests and if a person makes me feel good, rather than, ‘I must get a girl’, ‘I must get a boy’.
“But I do go through phases. When I started dating women and had my first woman relationship, I was like, ‘That’s it for men, they’re done’.
“I was like, ‘Do I even like men?'”

Speaking on Vicky’s The Secret To… podcast, Megan said she met up with a male ex ‘who she’d had a good sex life with’ to find out of she was off men for good.
“I was like, ‘Okay, I do still like sex with guys but just not this one’,” she concluded.
“I was quite narrow minded and thought women are more emotional, so we are going to get on better emotionally.
“That’s what I struggled with with guys. I love being silly and having a laugh but it’s very surface level with guys.
“I’m quite a geek and wanted to go and see art galleries. I thought with a woman it would be so much more interesting.”
But Megan warned: “Explore and be open but definitely if it’s not working out with men, women aren’t the answer.
“We are equally as complicated, if not more, because our emotions are so heightened on everything.”
Megan went on to describe herself as pansexual. This means she would be open to dating someone regardless of their gender or sexuality.
However, she did admit she is on the hunt for an “older man”.
Megan also spoke to Vicky about the recent series of Love Island All Stars, which ended on Monday night.
Fans were surprised she did not make an appearance on the show, which featured islanders from past series’.
But she told Vicky: “…to be honest I think where I am 29, I think I would be in a very similar situation to Hannah Elizabeth.
“Our type of men is just different. All the boys seemed fun and they are stunning guys.”
Megan then added: “But for me at this age I just want an older guy.”
