CHANELLE Hayes has found love with a former Take Me Out contestant after
revealing she has put
on six stone in weight.
The former Big Brother star, 28, has started dating PE teacher Ryan Oates and
has been gushing about the hunk on social media.
She recently shared videos on her Snapchat account as they enjoyed an
afternoon out together and she took to Twitter on Wednesday to boast about
their romantic “date night”.
She tweeted: “Catching up on #BearGrylls #TheIsland with the gorge
@RyanJOates … Date night at it’s best! Steak, PJs, TV, cuddles”
The couple got together earlier this year after she split from fitness fanatic
Josh Singleton but he already seems to have cheered her up.
She tweeted last week: “Haaaaaaappyhappyhappy.”
The handsome PE teacher from Scunthorpe appeared on the ITV dating show back
in January 2014 when he picked a brunette lady named Chloe for a trip to the
show’s Isle of Fernando’s.
However, he later admitted things didn’t go to plan and he wouldn’t be meeting
up with her again.
He later reflected: “We got on OK but after the show has been on, in
hindsight, I made the wrong decision.
“Because the show is such a blur and I had to make an instant decision,
having watched it back and met a couple of the girls who I turned down, I
would probably choose differently but it is one of those things.

Earlier this week, mum of one Chanelle opened up about her weight gain and
said she had decided
to make the most of her new curves.
She said: “I’m really embracing my body – why should there be so much emphasis
on weight? I’d love to be a plus-sized model.
“I want to show women out there that you can be happy and sexy whatever
your shape. I’d love to bring out a range for curvier women.”
After finding fame on Big Brother, Chanelle frequently posed for lads mags to
flaunt her skinny figure but claims she now has more important things to
think about than her appearance, like her five-year-old son Blakely.
She explained: “Besides, my priorities have changed. Blakely is at school and
I’d rather be at home with him in the evening than at the gym.
“There are more important things in life than what size you are.”
Now that she is comfortable about her figure and has found love with Ryan, she
said she is the best she has ever felt.
She told Closer magazine: “Now I’m a mum and nearly 30 my metabolism has
slowed down and I’ve put on weight. I’m a size 16 and happier than ever.”
Representatives for Chanelle have been approached for a comment.
