Ella Rae Wise takes savage swipe at ex Dan Edgar saying ‘things happened behind closed doors'
ELLA Rae Wise has once again lashed out her Towie ex, Dan Edgar. The Sun revealed how Ella, 24, had ended her on/off relationship with Dan, 34, just before she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house last month. 5 5 5 Now Ella has spoken out about how "things happened behind closed doors that I couldn't get over," which lead to her decision to dump Dan. She said in an interview with Daily Mail that "I hope we stay friends," because "nothing bad happened, there was no cheating or anything." Ella insisted the couple still speak but she decided to end it because "for once, I put myself first." Her comments come as the Towie cast are preparing to film the show's 15th anniversary special in Portugal and she is likely to run into her ex. The reality TV star also revealed how hard it was for her to get emotional about the break-up while competing on ITV's Celebrity Big Brother. "I also didn't know what was happening outside the show and what he was saying, so it took a lot for me to be so open on TV, where everyone will have an opinion," she said. On the show, Ella was quizzed on her relationship status by housemates Angellica Bell and JoJo Siwa, who were shocked to learn how recent she and Dan had broken up. She told them: "It was a week ago." Dan himself made some bombshell accusations after their split, including that he never formally asked Ella to be his girlfriend. He made the confession during an episode of Towie when Roman appeared confused about their relationship status and asked Dan: "Are you going to ask [Ella] to be your girlfriend?" Dan Edgar was spotted cosying up to a mystery blonde on holiday Dan answered back: "It wasn't that I was never gonna ask her, it just got to a stage where I felt we were both happy and just going with the flow of it." An insider had told The Sun at the time of their breakup that Dan had been questioning their whole relationship. "He believes that her intentions for dating him weren't right and feels she never really liked him," they said. "Ella lives a luxury lifestyle and wants someone who spoils her and Dan didn't do that, so in the end it wasn't going to work. "The best thing for them to do is distance themselves from each other. "Their breakup has caused some tension among the cast as things are very awkward between them at the moment." 5 5

EXCLUSIVE TOWIE's Ella Rae Wise opens up about split from Dan Edgar and says 'things happened behind closed doors that I couldn't get over and I put myself first for once'
has opened up about her split from her TOWIE boyfriend Dan Edgar in a rare interview. The reality star, 24, had been dating Dan in the lead-up to going on Celebrity Big Brother which launched back in April and believed they were in a good place - until things changed behind the scenes. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline about the breakup, she shared: 'I'd known about going on the show for a while and honestly thought I was going in with a happy relationship. 'But things happened behind closed doors that I couldn't get over. For once, I put myself first.' Despite their relationship coming to an end, Ella insists things ended amicably: 'Nothing bad happened, there was no cheating or anything, and we still speak. 'In fact, we messaged the other day. I hope we stay friends.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Viewers saw Ella break down in tears inside the famous Celebrity Big Brother house as she opened up about the breakup just days into filming. Reflecting on how vulnerable she felt, Ella added: 'It took a lot of courage for me to be open up and vulnerable about my relationship on the show. 'I was very emotional but honest about how I felt at the time. 'I also didn't know what was happening outside the show and what he was saying, so it took a lot for me to be so open on TV, where everyone will have an opinion.' The reality icon, who left the show in a triple eviction alongside Patsy Palmer and Angellica Bell, also revealed she was surprised by the lack of support from her fellow TOWIE castmates after her exit. She said: 'I only got messages from Freddie (Bentley), Saffron (Lempriere), and Dani (Imbert), like those are my three best friends. But no one else, which surprised me, I'm not going to lie. 'It was a bit sad because I would've messaged them if they were on a show, but I didn't hear anything. 'But then again, I don't know what they were going through at the time, so I don't hold it against them. I just know I would've messaged.' Looking ahead, Ella confirmed she will be joining the cast for the upcoming TOWIE 15th anniversary special, which will begin filming next month in Portugal. 'I'm so excited! I feel like it's going to be explosive. The last couple of series have been pretty tame, so it's time for a big one. And everything's just better in the sun,' she teased. Away from TOWIE, rumours have swirled that Ella may also be heading to the Love Island villa later this year. When asked if she could confirm the speculation, she remained tight-lipped. She said: 'I can't confirm or deny, but I'd love to do it. I'd love to do a show with like people out of the public eye. 'Even though I'm a celebrity, I still think I'm a normal girl. I still go down to the shop in my pyjamas and slippers. I'm just a regular girl.' As for her next project, Ella is launching a brand-new podcast titled 2 Girls 1 Gay with her best friends Dani and Freddie. She shared: 'I've got a podcast coming out later this month where fans will get to know me and my friends better away from the cameras. 'It's going to be great because fans can send in juicy questions, all anonymous, and we will answer it all for them.'

Towie bosses splash huge six figure sum on 15-yr anniversary trip to Portugal – but one star's future is ‘up in the air'
TOWIE bosses have splashed £150,000 on a cast getaway to Portugal to celebrate the show's 15th anniversary. Fan favourites will fly out next month to stay at the five-star resort in the Algarve for a two-week trip. 3 3 However, one cast member's place is under threat after angering show bosses. Ella Rae Wise was blasted for dumping boyfriend Dan Edgar off-screen days before going on Celebrity Big Brother. Although it's expected she'll make the journey, tensions have been high since the 26-year-old went 'off-script' and left producers in the lurch. A source told The Sun: 'There's going to be no expense spared on the Towie trip this year as the cast celebrate making it 15 years since its launch. 'The slap-up hotel will be a welcome change in location for the stars after the last dramatic series. "There have been ongoing discussions about Ella going on the trip after she dumped Dan off-screen. "It causes a major headache for producers who would have ideally wanted their split recorded instead of Celebrity Big Brother benefiting from the storyline. "She'll still end up going on the trip but she's definitely ruffled feathers behind the scenes and has some making up to do." Our show insider added: "It's gearing up to be one of the show's most extravagant overseas shoots to date. "Fans are being promised big moments, bold fashion, and plenty of unexpected twists. Towie favourite sparks engagement rumours with stunning reality star girlfriend after fans spot hidden clue - did you see it? "The cast themselves are already in prep mode – from glam squad bookings and outfit fittings to storyline planning. "There's a real buzz building around this trip, and it's clear the team are treating it as a major tentpole in the TOWIE calendar." Filming is set to begin on June 6 in Portugal, with the entire cast being flown out for a two-week stay. There will be a production team of over 95 people involved, making it one of the largest international operations the show has ever undertaken. The Westin Algarve has been chosen as the cast's base. The resort, that just opened with its five-star facilities, beachfront setting and high-end suites, is expected to serve as the glamorous backdrop for much of the upcoming drama. Producers have also flown out ahead of schedule to scout the best beach clubs, bars, and party hotspots across the Algarve. From luxury daybeds and DJ sets to sunset views and private lounges, every setting is being handpicked to deliver high-energy content and unforgettable scenes. The team behind the show sees Portugal as the ideal location – glamorous, sunny and accessible with only a short 2.5 hour flight from the UK. Ella upset Towie bosses when she blindsided Dan when she said their great sex life wasn't enough of a reason to stay together. It was rumoured she planned for a showmance with CBB co-star Chris Hughes but grew jealous in the house when he became fixated on JoJo Siwa. Despite initially insisting their relationship is 'platonic', JoJo and Chris have fuelled speculation they are more than friends. Series 36 is due to air later this year as it makes a return to ITV2 and ITVX. 3

Yazmin Oukhellou flashes her cleavage in a blue minidress as she joins TOWIE co-star Dan Edgar and Mia Sulley at the opening of new hair clinic
The stars of British reality TV and celebs attended the opening of a new London hair transplant clinic on Sunday. The Only Way Is Essex star Yazmin Oukhellou, 31, stunned in a blue minidress that she paired with thigh high boots and a denim jacket and bag. She was joined by co-star Dan Edgar, 35, who wore an all-white outfit consisting of a white jacket, shirt, and trousers that showed off his glowing tan. Make-up artist Mia Sulley, 27, also opted for a white outfit that showed off her enviable assets and legs, bringing together the look with tan heels and a bag. Meanwhile, actor Tamer Hassan, 57, showed off his impressive hairline in a dark blue jumper and trousers that he paired with a clutch bag. They looked delighted as they posed outside the new City Clinics Group Limited establishment on Harley Street - decorated with gold and white balloons for its grand opening. Tamer Hassan, 57, showed off his impressive hairline in a dark blue jumper and trousers that he paired with a clutch bag While it is not known whether Dan himself will be enjoying any of the treatments offered by the clinic, Tamer has already been undergoing a process known as enhanced PRP to stimulate the growth of his own hair. The unique approach to tackling hair loss involves extracting plasma from a person's blood and injecting into their scalp to accelerate healing and growth. The new Harley Street branch of City Clinics Group Limited advertises itself as offering similarly undetectable treatments for those experiencing hair loss. It stresses that its solutions are tailormade to the individual and aim to treat the root cause of the problem, regardless of sex. City Clinics Group Limited already claims to have a roster of celebrity clients, although their names are not readily available. Dan's appearance at the event comes amid a difficult time in his personal life following his recent split from Ella Rae Wise before she entered the Celebrity Big Brother House. The TOWIE star is reported to have ben left shocked by comments from his ex-partner about their sex life. Ella said of the split: 'We can't just be together because we have a great sex life, it's got to be deeper than that.' This prompted Dan to hit back at Ella's comments as she appeared to flirt with her fellow Big Brother star and Love Island alumni Chris Hughes. The couple were together for 18 months before their relationship came to an end in April. Dan told The Sun: 'The past week has seen a strange turn of events and things have been said that I didn't really want to comment on. 'But, to put it straight, Ella and I agreed to go our separate ways amicably last week, and were speaking right up until she left to go into the house. 'I think we both have our reasons for why it wasn't working out, but there are certain things in life I would rather keep private.'
