It doesn’t seem like the last series of TOWIE finished that long ago but the cast are already about to start filming series 34 and do you know what? We thank them for their dedication to delivering all the drama.
The likes of Junaid Ahmed, Courtney Green, Chloe Meadows and James ‘Diags’ Bennewith jetted off to Cyprus earlier today (Monday 1 July) for the start of season cast trip that is now customary.
But, when we saw one of Ella Rae Wise’s recent Instagram posts, we couldn’t help but wonder whether she’d be making it on the trip amid her rumoured relationship drama with Dan Edgar.
Ella took to her Instagram story to share a cryptic quote, which read, “Every time I detach and focus on myself, I win.”
Well we certainly hope you’re not detaching yourself from TOWIE any time soon, Ella.
Of course, fans immediately began speculating that Ella had quit the show after she shared the post but it seems there was nothing to worry about as she later posted a number of snaps from the airport.
As well as a picture of a luggage trolley heaving with all her suitcases, Ella uploaded a picture of her bestie Freddie Bentley and Junaid with the caption, “Series 34 is going to be interesting… 👀.”
The last time we saw Ella on-screen she was being comforted by Dan after a blazing row with Harry Derbidge and his boyfriend Joe Blackman, however it appears that things may have cooled down between Ella and Dan since then.
Back in May, it was reported that Dan allegedly hooked up with former flame Hannah Rally while Ella holidayed in Dubai.
It was claimed that Ella then confronted her love rival in her DMs, leading Hannah to call her out on her Instagram story.
Hannah shared a meme which showed a rather graphic image of a giant hand holding a miniature naked man by the penis with the caption, "Your man was in my DMs again sis, I believe this is yours."
She then added, "More than DMs, but now you can get out of mine, love @ellaraewisex 😘."
Let’s hope series 34 sheds some light on exactly what went down.
