Lucy Mecklenburgh and Mario Falcone seem to be getting over their issues and look thoroughly loved up in tonight’s The only Way is Essex episode.

The pair experienced a bit of a rough patch recently, after Lucy discovered that her partner had been sexting various other women behind her back, but after apologizing profusely and making a seirs of grand gestures to win her back, the pair reunited last week, after Mario bought Lucy a new puppy.

As they took part in a photoshoot this week,the brunette beauty insisted that the new addition to their family be given pride of place too and asked Falcone:

“You know that famous shot with the man and he is topless holding a baby?… Do you think we can do that shot with Bentley and Mario?”…

He looked mortified and replied:

“This is so cringe worthy it’s unbelievable”

However being a pet owner isn’t as easy as it seems and Lucy confessed that she’s finding it hard to get up with the pup at night, as he whines for food and company.

Mecklenburgh added:

“You know what? The nights are killing me. It’s like having a baby, Mario”
