MARK’S FLIGHT OF FANCY
LOVE rat Marc Bannerman is preparing to head back Down Under to be with Cerys Matthews after being dumped by his girlfriend.
The 34-year-old ex-EastEnders star caused a sensation yesterday by sending Cerys, 38, a “love note” revealing he would come back for her if she wanted him to.
Later in an emotional Bush Telegraph video message, the overjoyed singer appealed for Marc to come back so they can pick up where they left off.
And now the actor has been reportedly shown the door by a furious Sarah Matravers, 32, it seems likely he will fly back in the next few days.
According to a source close to Sarah, the actress finished with Marc in an emotional phone call.
And Marc’s very public letter to Cerys seems to confirm his two-year relationship is definitely over.
In the letter – which was read out in the jungle after the celebrities won a challenge – Marc said: “Keep singing, songbird, you are doing amazing and I am rooting for you...
“There are many problems in London and I have had to go back to try and sort them out but I may well return to greet you when you come out, if that is your wish – Marc.”
And it didn’t take the former Catatonia singer long before she gave him her answer.
In an emotional video message in the Bush Telegraph, Cerys said: “I’d definitely like him to come out if he wants, ’cos he knows all the answers now.”
Marc and Cerys’ flirty bush romance has been the talk of this year’s show.
After his eviction on Wednesday, Marc came out to discover Sarah had already flown home in disgust. She said she had been humiliated on national TV.
Last night Marc landed back at Heathrow with a “face like thunder”, according to one onlooker.
As he made his way to a waiting car he said to reporters: “Come near me one more time and I’m going to knock you one.”
