Stephen Bear appeared to be refused entry to Essex hotspot Sheesh on Wednesday night while his ex Charlotte Crosby lived it up inside for former Geordie Shore co-star Sophie Kasaei’s 28th birthday.
The 27-year-old Ex On The Beach hunk appeared to clash with bouncers as he attempted to enter the eatery while his former girlfriend’s friends – Marnie Simpson, Pete Wicks and Casey Johnson – all stood in an apparent disagreement.
Sources his rejection was down to his lack of reservation and being in trainers yet he is said to have insisted his ex-girlfriend was the reason for the incident – with Marnie, 24, dragged in when he begged her to bring Charlotte outside.

Heading off: Casey and Marnie were in good spirits as they headed into the bash
While Marnie, Pete and Casey stood outside smoking, Bear and a group of his friends seemed engrossed in talks with the bouncers – as he seen to gesticulate wildly as Charlotte’s pals looked on and weighed in momentarily.
With onlookers stating that his restriction was down to his footwear rather than apparent claims of Charlotte acting in, the restaurant’s dress code confirms this.
The website reads: ‘There is a smart dress code at Sheesh at all times. No sports wear is allowed and no trainers of any type are allowed in the building’.

Pal: Charlotte strutted her stuff with a pal as they walked hand in hand into the eatery
Despite the group being mostly reality stars, there was in fact an A-lister in their midst as Pete’s Game Of Thrones star pal Kristian Nairn joining in the group but was far away from the fracas later in the evening.
Sophie meanwhile was flaunting her super svelte figure in a skin-tight velvet dress with one-shoulder and a diamond choker detail while she was also joined by her mum and dad at the restaurant, making for a family affair.
Having confirmed their split earlier in the week, the coincidental outing comes just hours after Bear revealed he had quit Just Tattoo Of Us, the show they co-host.

Representatives for Charlotte, Bear, Sophie, Pete, Marnie and Sheesh declined to comment when approached by MailOnline.
The group featured various links, as Pete’s ex-girlfriend Megan McKenna locked lips with Bear when they appeared on Ex On The Beach’s second season in 2015.
Additionally, Marnie and Bear starred in Celebrity Big Brother last year, during which she found love with Lewis Bloor and Bear hooked up with Chloe Khan.
