The former couple made it to the final vows where he decided to end the union, though they did briefly get back together and attended the series reunion as a couple.
Ultimately, the relationship didn't work out but Ella didn't have to wait long to find her Prince Charming.
Guy and Ella went public in April 2023 and just a year later tied the knot in a surprise ceremony.
Prior to their nuptials, Ella opened up about the possibility of becoming a mother and said she wasn't in a hurry.

"I'm not in any rush to have children, that's about it really," she said.
"Ideally, I would like to say I would like to have kids in a year and a half to two years but I don't know how long that could take."
Ella and Guy said I do at a ceremony in Melbourne and their romantic vows were captured on video.
She told him: "I believe every experience we've been through in life has prepared us to be ready for each other now.
"Guy, you are my best friend, and I love you so much. Thank you for choosing me and what I come with, quirks and all, I can't wait to do the rest of my life with you."
While Guy was equally as gushing, telling Ella: "You are the single most beautiful person in the world to me every single day, you're my best friend my confidant and my life partner and I'll always feel blessed to have you by my side and I love you."

Nicola Adams admits one huge reason she split from girlfriend as she discusses co-parenting
The former professional boxer has opened up on one thing that had a big 'impact' on their relationship as she explained how they are navigating co-parenting their young son. Olympic gold medallist Nicola Adams has confessed that her ex-girlfriend Ella Baig's career on an adult website put a strain on their relationship as she opens up on their 'difficult' split and navigating co-parenting their son. Nicola, 42, who was the first British woman to secure an Olympic gold medal in the ring at the 2012 Olympics, ended her relationship with 27-year-old Ella at the beginning of the year after seven years together. The former couple reportedly struggled through the nature of Ella's OnlyFans career. Nicola and Ella first started dating in 2018 after they met on a night out. After several years into their romance, they decided they wanted to become parents and chose to use fertility treatments. Ella gave birth to their son Taylor in July 2022 via caesarean section. Since their split earlier this year, Nicola has admitted that Ella's OnlyFans career did have a negative impact on their relationship, the Mirror reports. Speaking to the Daily Mail, the former professional boxer said: 'I have always been incredibly supportive of Ella's career and the choices she has made, including her work on OnlyFans. "However, as much as I respect what she does, I can't deny that it has had an impact on our relationship.' She also opened up about how the difficulties of going through a breakup in the public eye but insisted they are managing to co-parent pretty well. She added: 'Co-parenting has been really good, because our son's always at the top of it. It's always difficult doing breakups, especially when you're in the public eye - and it's not something that you always you want to be public. "But I guess once you've been [in the public eye] it always ends up being that way... but we've navigated that quite well. 'I've always believed in handling things with respect and maturity, and we shared a lot of good memories together, and I'll always be grateful for the good times. "And I guess the main thing is our son now, and we see ourselves as, like, pretty good co-parents. I think... I feel like we've got good co-parenting girls here. I'm just happy that he's happy, and it hasn't really affected him that much.' It comes after Nicola lifted the lid on her new career move as she revealed that she has been taking acting lessons and is now set to make her acting debut in a film next year.

From Zendaya to JoJo Siwa & Olivia Rodrigo… why American girls simply can't resist a British boy
Find out which seven British men have proved irresistible to US celebs Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FORGET Labubu dolls or Dubai chocolate, there is one must-have item on every American starlet's wishlist this summer – a hot British boyfriend. Just ask the famous faces who have been descending on our shores and picking up a home-grown lad as a souvenir. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 8 Heiress Nicola Peltz only has eyes for Brit nepo baby Brooklyn Beckham Credit: Instagram Whether it's the accent or not, Englishmen are certainly having a moment. Globally, Google searches for 'British men' went up 21 per cent over the past year. And according to dating site 65 per cent of its 108,000 members are American women. Meanwhile, US director Lena Dunham's new semi-autobiographical Netflix drama, Too Much, tells the story of a New York woman who moves to London following a break-up and falls for an English musician. READ MORE ON CELEBRITY DATING ROCK IN THE PARK Zendaya flashes £200k engagement ring on London dog walk with Tom Actress Lena married British composer Luis Felber in 2021 after also moving across the pond. Just a few of the stars following in her footsteps and bagging a Brit hunk are singer Olivia Rodrigo, actress Zendaya, and billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz, who earlier this month renewed her wedding vows with Brooklyn Beckham. More recently, Love Island UK's first transatlantic winner Toni Laites admitted that she sees 'no reason to be in America any more' after falling for East London lad Cach Mercer on the ITV show. Here are seven of the British men who have proved irresistible to US celebs. Tom Holland opens up about 'one day becoming a dad' as GMA shares sweet photo of star with girlfriend Zendaya Louis Partridge and Olivia Rodrigo 8 US singer Olivia Rodrigo has fallen for Brit actor Louis Partridge Credit: Getty TAKING to the stage at Glastonbury in June, Drivers License singer Olivia made her allegiances known. 'I love England so much,' the Californian told the 120,000-strong crowd. 'I love how nobody judges you for having a pint at noon. I love English sweets… and, as luck would have it, I love English boys.' Specifically, she loves one English boy – actor Louis Partridge. The pair, both 22, first sparked romance rumours in October 2023, when they were pictured with their arms around the other's waist in London. They then made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Venice Film Festival in August 2024, where Louis was promoting his TV series, Disclaimer. The pair have more recently been spotted together at Wimbledon. They have mostly remained coy about their relationship, with Londoner Louis telling British Vogue last year: 'Dating probably shouldn't be done in the public eye… I think she's got tons and tons of eyes on her case.' So Olivia's very public tribute to the Enola Holmes star on stage at the Worthy Farm festival is testament to their strong feelings. Tom Holland and Zendaya 8 Zendaya has moved from California to London to be with Brit Tom Holland Credit: Getty ONE of our most famous transatlantic couples, Tom and Zendaya got engaged earlier this year, with the British actor proposing with a £200,000 ring. Since meeting Tom, 29, on the set of Spider-Man in 2016, Zendaya, 28, has proved herself to be a true anglophile. She has moved from California to Richmond, South West London, where the pair reside in a £3million mansion close to where he grew up. Residents are said to leave them alone and they are frequently spotted walking around Richmond Park. Last year Zendaya, 28, confirmed she is Tom's biggest fan, paying tribute to her man while promoting her own movie, Dune 2. 'I think someone who has beautiful charisma, not on the Dune cast, but personally works for me, is Mr Tom Holland,' she said, adding that 'he's great at just talking to people, getting to know people.' And last week Zendaya was spotted supporting Tom while he filmed scenes for their upcoming Spider-Man flick in Surrey. Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel 8 Londoner Matty Healy is engaged to Californian Gabbriette HE did not receive a glowing review from his American ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift, who slammed him in songs The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived and I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can). But Londoner Matty's charms have fared better on Californian Gabbriette, 28. The 1975 frontman, 36, started dating the model in 2023 and they got engaged last year. But Gabbriette has revealed they are in no rush to wed. 'It might take a while because I'm bad at planning stuff,' she said last month. 'But the wedding bells are somewhere up there.' Meanwhile, the model has another fan in Matty's famous mum, Denise Welch. The Loose Women star recently appeared on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live! and took the opportunity to pay tribute to her future daughter-in-law, while also taking a subtle swipe at Taylor. 'Matty has taken it all in completely good grace,' she said. 'He's very happy with his amazing fiancée Gabbriette – who is gorgeous – so we've moved on.' Leo Woodall and Meghann Fahy 8 Meghann and Leo have a 'great deal in common' despite their hometowns being worlds away Credit: Getty AS co-stars on season two of The White Lotus in 2022, Meghann and Leo had their fair share of on-screen romance with other people. But it was not long until they only had eyes for each other – and after the private pair were spotted kissing in New York in 2023, they finally hard launched their relationship on social media in early 2024. Though her hometown of Massachusetts is worlds away from Leo's West London roots, Meghann, 35, has said they have a great deal in common – not least their high-profile careers. She revealed earlier this year: 'I think that it's just really great to be deeply understood… There's so many weird things about this industry and what we do, so I think there's just something really lovely about being with somebody who really gets that.' As for Leo, 28, he has called their relationship his 'safe space,' which leaves little confusion as to why, like Bridget Jones in the series' latest film, Meghann is Mad About The Boy. Harry Charles and Eve Jobs 8 Eve Jobs looked across the Atlantic to find her happy-ever-after with Team GB champion Harry Charles Credit: Instagram SHE is the American heiress who could have her pick of any fella in her home country. But Eve Jobs – the daughter of late Apple founder Steve – looked across the Atlantic to find her happy-ever-after with Team GB champion Harry Charles, 26. As an accomplished equestrian – once ranked the world's fifth best rider under-25 – it is no wonder Eve, 27, has fallen for the Olympic-gold showjumper, from Hampshire. The pair reportedly met due to their shared love of horses and started dating in 2022. They got engaged two years later, around the same time the former Tatler It Girl and model was cheering Harry on at the 2024 Paris Games. The couple wed last month in a lavish £5million wedding in the Cotswolds, with a celebrity guest list including former US Vice President Kamala Harris. Last week Eve shared their first official wedding portrait, telling her social media followers it had been 'the most magical week'. George Rollinson and Ashley Roberts 8 Ashley has been loved up with Brit artist and tattooist George since 2023 Credit: GC Images RADIO host Ashley made the UK her home many years ago, but she didn't initially commit to the British-boy assignment – famously dating Italian stallion Giovanni Pernice in 2018. The former Pussycat Doll, 43, has since discovered the local fare and has been loved up with artist and tattooist George, 25, since 2023. The pair went public in early 2024 and have posted snaps from holidays to Dubai and Italy, as well as their visit across the pond to see Ashley's family in Phoenix, Arizona. Ashley said last year: 'American men are overwhelming, they are too much. I'm like, you need to calm down.' And she is not the only Pussycat Doll singer to fall for a British man. Hawaiian Nicole Scherzinger, 47, is engaged to 40-year-old Scottish former rugby player Thom Evans. And Missouri-born Kimberly Wyatt has been married to singer Max Rogers, both 43, since 2014. Nathan Louis-Fernand and Rachel Zegler 8 Snow White actress Rachel is dating Londoner Nathan SHE is currently taking the West End by storm as the leading lady in musical Evita. But off-stage, Rachel is making sweet, sweet music with co-star and back-up dancer Nathan. The 24-year-old has temporarily relocated to London for the show – and it seems the New Jersey-born star is enjoying the local delights. The Snow White actress was pictured kissing Londoner Nathan, 27, last month at Sabrina Carpenter's headline gig at the BST Hyde Park Music Festival on July 6. In the weeks since, Rachel has posted snaps of Louis on her Instagram, including a blurry photo of them embracing one another and another of him kissing her cheek. The pair were also seen walking Rachel's dog in London's Primrose Hill two weeks ago, with Louis wrapping his arm around the actress.

Man Utd hardman Roy Keane shows his softer side with wholesome Instagram post and nine-word message on 54th birthday
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FOOTBALL hardman Roy Keane has shown off his softer side with a wholesome Instagram post. Keane celebrated his 54th birthday on Sunday by posting a series of heartwarming photos and videos of himself soaking in some sun alongside his family.

Keane was seen sunbathing on an inflatable while wearing glasses. He captioned the post: "Happy Birthday to me. All the gifts I need." And Keane's next pictures and videos showed exactly what those presents were, as Keane showed he is a big softie at heart with his grandchildren.

He then shared pics of him playing alongside another of his grandchildren with the sand at the beach. The next pic showed him in the pool with two of them, with Keane all smiles as he hogged an inflatable dragon. One of his grandkids was filmed jumping in the pool next, with Keane delighting as he then picked him up and threw him up in the air. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK The final image of Keane's birthday post showed him pushing a buggy with one of his grandkids in it. Birthday wishes from scores of his 2.3 million followers and fans came flooding in. Roy Keane takes time to sign autographs for kids at the Cork City game vs Sligo Rovers The Overlap account said: "Happy Birthday Roy!" A fan said: "Have a great one, sir. You're nothing but a breath of fresh air." A second fan added: "Imagine your grandad being Roy Keane man." Boxing coach David Coldwell said: "The main man. Happy Birthday!" A fourth fan joked: "Looking after the grandkids? That's his job." A fifth said: "Birthdays? Do me a favour." Keane has revealed he has three grandchildren, but is usually notoriously protective of his private life. The latest member of the Keane family was welcomed in April, with Keane introducing him to the public via a beaming Instagram post. His daughter, Leah, is engaged to one-cap England and Southampton star Taylor Harwood-Bellis. However, the 23-year-old has likely heeded Keane's advice and kept shtum on talking about their private lives too much. Last month, the former Republic of Ireland international was seen signing an autograph for a kid while he attended a game for his hometown team of Cork City. Keane will doubtless have plenty of chances to show off his famous barbed tongue this season when he returns to the studio as a pundit for Sky Sports. His old club, United, always seem to be in the headlines for the wrong reasons in recent years, and many would be shocked if that did not continue despite talk, once again, of the club heading in a new direction. 6 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
