Sharing her thoughts, Ella suggested that Dan is "very set in his ways," adding that she can't "expect someone to change". She added: "And if he's comfortable in how he is and if he thinks what he gives in a relationship is enough, that's okay because that can be enough for someone." Ella continued by stating that it's "just not enough" for her though.

He said in a statement: "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."

He added in the statement issued last week: "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. I wish her all the best and hope she enjoys her experience."
