'Whilst I am usually an open book, on this occasion when it come to my medical recovery, I will take my time before giving more details as I am still awaiting some test results and would request privacy during this period.

Ella shot to fame when she appeared onMarried At First Sight in 2023, and made history as the first transgender bride on the UK version
Taking to her Instagram Stories, she said: 'I'm really excited about this journey, but I nearly quit the other day. It was just getting so much.
'It was quite triggering. I don't know what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be a bit of a breeze and a walk in the park.
Ella explained that taking part in the E4 dating show is more of a 'solo' experience than MAFS but doesn't want to use her platform to only talk about her transition, which she began at the age of 16.
She continued: 'This is definitely more of a solo journey than MAFS. With Celebs Go Dating you're working out what you do right, what do you wrong, what you need to work on.'
She concluded: 'Now I'm going to have to be fully vulnerable and be myself, which isn't just crazy, loud, fun Ella. I'm obviously a lot more serious and tame.'
Ella made history as the first transgender participant on Celebs Go Dating, and her time on MAFS famously saw her couple up with JJ Slater, who is the current boyfriend of Katie Price.
Ella was left 'betrayed' by Katie when when the ex-glamour model stole her ex and Katie is now said to be nervous about what Ella will reveal.
Other stars who may join the show are Coronation Street's Helen Flanagan and Love Island OG Chris Taylor.
