Serial texter Mario apologises to Lucy

We all know that each episode of TOWIE is filled with its own batch of drama and upset, but last nights episode was truly explosive.

Much to the shock and horror of the majority of female viewers, serial texter Mario tried to defend his behaviour by announcing that what he had been doing wasn't actually cheating. Last Wednesday's episode saw his girlfriend Lucy find endless amounts of emails from other girls on his iPad, some even asking for naked pictures, but Mario is adamant that he hadn't done anything wrong.

As he discussed his situation with a friend, Mario maintained that he hadn't done anything wrong - using Lucy's infidelity with Mark Wright as his defense.

He said: 'This isn't as bad as what she did. I don't see texting as cheating. On a scale of one to ten, I'm on a one for what i did, and she's on a 10.

'From the moment that I wake up to the moment that I go to bed, what Lucy did drives me f*****g crazy. To be honest, I wanted her to find out so she could feel a smidgen of what I feel. But overall I do want her back.'

And talking to best friend Lydia Bright about the situation, Lucy said: 'I'm just so drained, I can't keep any food down. I'm just like a wreck. I didn't plan what happened with me, it happened and it was a drunken mistake.'

To make matters worse, Lucy's close friend and newbie to the show Cara admitted to Lucy that she had received text messages from Mario too.

She said: 'I wanted to come around Lucy and tell you that I received a few messages myself from Mario. Basically, he has messages me how are you, and then I feel like he's stepped the mark with me by saying to me, "When are we having a night in together?"

'And I replied to him saying in your dreams, this was the other day. I just feel so sorry for you Lucy.  I think he's doing this to you to get you back.'

Lucy said: 'That's just humiliating because you are my friend.  It's like he wanted to get caught. I don't understand.'
She added: 'Texting hundreds of girls isn't revenge - it's a problem. What a d**k.'

Adding fuel to the fire, newbie Georgina also admitted that she had received calls from Mario. Talking to Lauren Pope in the toilet, she said: 'Mario has messaged me before. He'd call me and say, "Ok, well, can we go for dinner?" And I'd say, "You have a girlfriend, are you mad?"

Little did they know that Lucy was in the toilet cubicle though. She came out and shouted at Georgina: 'You're still texting a guy that has a girlfriend, that's the point isn't it?'

Confronting Mario about the situation, he simply came back with "I'm sorry" before giving her his new mobile number.

Oooh, what do you think? Will these two get back together? Would you take him back?
