A source told the publication: ‘They were holding hands at the after-party, they seemed to be a proper couple again as they were talking to pals there as a pair.
‘Pete and Megan were deep into conversation and looked really comfortable in each other’s company.
‘Pete was a proper gentleman and gave Megan his jacket as she was wearing just a dress and was freezing.’

Megan and Pete’s turbulent romance was documented on TOWIE, before they explosively split in October 2017.
The pair – who had a famously fiery relationship – called it quits when Megan discovered in September 2016 that he had been sexting his ex Jacqui Ryland.
The star-crossed lovers briefly got back together while Megan was pursuing her musical ambitions in Nashville, but it sadly wasn’t meant to be.
However, the pair manged to quash any animosity after they both signed up to Celebs Go Dating last year.
Pete was also incredibly supportive of Megan after her ex-boyfriend Mike Thalassitis committed suicide last March.
Mike passed away aged 26, with Metropolitan Police confirming that he was found hanged near his Edmonton home in tragic news which came to light hours later.
Megan channelled her heartache into her singing and entered the Celebrity X Factor, which she went on to win.
