Ella revealed – in rather explicit detail – how she’d decided to axe her relationship, just as she went into the house, so it couldn’t have failed to escape Chris’s attention.

A TV insider said: “Hitting on a pal’s ex so soon after splitting up just isn’t the done thing – particularly if you do it in front of millions of viewers on a national TV show.
