The relationship between Tes McFly and Kadeena Cox
Tes McFly and Kadeena have had an on-again, off-again relationship since they were teenagers. The pair initially met on Facebook when Kadeena was chatting with Tes’ cousin.
While their initial breakup remains a mystery, we do know that in 2014, after Kadeena was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, Tes contacted her and they got back together. “He still has some love for me in his heart,” Kadeena shared on the set of Eating With My Ex at the time.
Two years later, Kadeena was nominated for Sports Personality of the Year and the couple attended the event together, suggesting they were still together.
However, news of their split soon emerged. It was reported that their relationship ended when a friend of Kadeena’s told her that Tes had moved in with another woman.
In November 2021, Tes and Kadeena appeared on BBC Three’s celebrity special I’m a Celebrity, where Tes revealed that he had cheated on Kadeena so many times that he had “lost count”. He explained that he treated her badly because Kadeena put sport first and her boyfriend second.
Kadeena immediately retorted, “Don’t you dare say that to me. This is why we always end up in this situation. Because you’re the one who’s wrong, but you still try to make me feel bad about it.”
Kadeena had a great start to her Paralympic cycling career in 2016, winning a gold medal and setting a new world record on her first attempt. She then went on to win two more gold medals in running and cycling at the Rio Paralympic Games.
To further her skills, Kadeena participated in I’m a Celebrity season 21 alongside other celebrities such as Danny Miller and Richard Madeley.
