Gogglebox star Ellie Warner looks downcast as she’s spotted for the first time since her boyfriend’s horror accident
GOGGLEBOX star Ellie Warner has been seen for the first time since her boyfriend’s horror accident.
The 31-year-old looked downcast as she left Wetherspoons pub The Three Hulats in Leeds with friends.
Pink-haired Ellie stepped out in her glasses as she went make-up free wearing ripped jeans.
It’s the first time we’ve seen the reality star since her boyfriend Nat was knocked down by a car.
He’s been in intensive care fighting for his life after he was injured three weeks ago.
The hairdresser, who has appeared on the programme alongside her sister Izzi for the past six years, hasn’t filmed this week because she’s been by Nat’s bedside.
More on Ellie Warner
West Yorkshire Police have said that there are no updates on the case.
It comes after it was revealed that Ellie was taking an extended break from Gogglebox so she was able to look Nat.
Show bosses are paying Ellie her show fee in full while being off-screen as they rally to support her after her boyfriend’s accident.
Producers have told her to take all the time she needs – and keep her monthly £1,500 per household payment.
Channel 4 had no comment.
A source told The Sun: “Bosses paid Ellie her full fee for the show – they didn’t want her or Izzi worrying about money.
“Of course they’ve honoured the payments – they take duty of care very seriously on the show.”
