Ever since it was announced that the cast of TOWIE had started filming series 34 – in Cyprus no less – a million and one questions begun whirring through our reality TV obsessed brains.
QUESTIONS LIKE: Will Amber Turner be in attendance?
Are Ella Rae Wise and Dan Edgar back on, despite rumours of his infidelity and Ella's constant cryptic social media stories?
Will Harry Derbidge rock the schlong thong again?
Well, we may not know much on Harry's swimwear choice but we do know that Ella and Dan are very much back on and have confirmed as such by frolicking in the ocean.
The duo enjoyed a summer fling during the cast's last trip abroad and the romance continued once they all returned to Essex and it looks like it never actually came to an end. Our bad.
Pictures of the couple kissing and playing in the sea have surfaced online and does this mean that Dan is ready to commit and all is forgiven after he was rumoured to have 'cheated' on Ella with his ex, Hannah Rally?
The Daily Mail posted photos of Dan and Ella sharing a steamy kiss and they look happy as Larry.
Ella previously revealed that she was 'single' during an Instagram Q&A, but it looks as though the Cypriot sun and seeing Dan Edgar in a pair of trunks has swayed her. She is only human, after all.
Last season saw Ella clash with Amber and her 'Girl band,' as well as her former bestie Harry, after she started her love affair with Dan.
Although if we're being honest, Amber seemed the least bothered by the romance, with Chloe Meadows the most upset that her BFF and Dan were no more and he was instead getting it on with Ella.
The start date for the new season is yet to be confirmed but we expect all will be revealed in the next few weeks.
