"The boys that have DM'd me I haven't actually met in person yet, so don't know," she smiled.

The interviewer asked whether she could reveal exactly who had messaged her she said: "Well I don't really care, Munveer did slide in, tell a lie, I have seen him - I said hello but nothing's really continued.

"I spoke to Omar briefly, but yeah we'll just see. There's no date on the cards or anything like that, it's just a friendly little DM, little like of the story you know."

But fans have called her out on revealing the identity of the boys, claiming she was being rude.

"Nothing wrong with it just weird of her to out them like that," one wrote.

"Exactly, her outing them shows she isn’t interested which is a bit rude to them to do publicly!" a second commented.

"Lmfao Munveer and Omar slid into Ella B's dms," a third said with a crying face.

"Mind you Ella B was the one who followed Omar first on Instagram," remarked a fourth.

Ella looked incredible with her honey-blonde hair in soft curls and make up that showed off her natural beauty.

She wore a dress with a panelled cut out feature, revealing her impressive figure.

Ella was asked her thoughts on Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury's recent shock split.

"I can't believe it. they were only engaged a year ago. I'm actually really sad because they're the power couple - when you think of Love Island you think of Molly and Tommy," she said.

"I'm hoping they get back together," the bombshell added.

The dancer entered the villa on day 39 alongside Josh Brocklebank.

Ella instantly caught the eye of Mitch and coupled up straight away.

The model was involved in an awkward love triangle with Mitch and his ex Abbie Moores, despite her being in a couple with Scott van-der-Sluis.

On day 56 Ella and Mitch were dumped from the villa and they only lasted a few weeks before splitting.

In an Instagram post, Ella said: “Just wanted to come on here and keep you all updated, as you deserve to know as I wouldn’t be where I am without you.

“Unfortunately myself and Mitch have decided to end our relationship. I really wanted things to work out and I’m gutted that our journey has come to an end.

“I wish Mitch all the best and hope he finds happiness. It’s time for both of us to start a new chapter.

“Thank you so much for all the love and support. It means the world to me.”

Mitch added: "Morning everyone. As you have most likely seen Ella’s post, sadly out relationship has come to an end.

"We had no intentions of ending, but with our busy lives at the moment and living the other side of the country made it extremely hard for it to work.
