The couple were together for three years before the break-up and some fans were suspicious after it was revealed they'd signed up for Ex on the Beach.

During the trailer, Chloe and Finn seem to be bonding well, but things soon take an unexpected turn when his ex rocks up.

A gobsmacked Chloe says: "Finn is that your ex", as Paige emerges from the sea.

As the singletons get to know each other, things are quickly halted when they receive a text during the evening.

Love Island star Joseph Garrett, who is fresh from his recent brief stint in the All Stars, drops the bombshell news.

The message reads: "Tonight two people will leave the villa."

Although the celebrities were hoping to find love, Yazmin decided to quit the show just days into filming.

The Sun revealed that the star sensationally pulled out of the series for personal reasons.

According to an insider, the star was completely thrown off guard by the arrival of her famous ex-boyfriend, 36-year-old James Lock.

A source exclusively told The Sun: "Yaz knew filming Celeb Ex On The Beach would be challenging as the whole purpose of the show is to create drama.

"But within days of James arriving, she realised she couldn't cope with being in the villa with him and decided to leave.

"She was prepared to give up her time on the show for her own mental health.

"Having been through everything she has been through in the last year, Yaz has realised life is too short to be in situations where she is unhappy or feels uncomfortable."

The show insider added: "It just wasn't worth it to her."
