Michelle was previously engaged to The Wanted singer Max George, but she called off the engagement in July 2012 after claims surfaced that Max had been unfaithful.The 25-year-old singer, who was asked how he felt about his ex-fiancé's news in an interview on Daybreak, clearly has no hard feelings towards the lovebirds."I'm actually really happy for her, she's a wonderful girl," said Max. "I've met Mark and he seems like a really nice bloke so yeah - I wish them all the luck in the world."
