Love Island's Ellie Brown has been having the time of her life since her villa boyfriend Charlie Brake dumped her with a statement on Instagram. Although the couple seemed pretty solid after the end of the show - with Ellie even briefly moving into Charlie's home in Chelsea - he revealed that they'd parted ways on Instagram, something that apparently came as a shock to Ellie, who was out partying with Laura Anderson at the time.
But since then, Ellie has been out loving life, going to plenty of events and partying away - even reportedly sharing a kiss with TOWIE's Pete Wicks. However, there's another Essex boy she's had her eye on, and it looks as though she's now confirmed it.
Taking to her Instagram Story, Ellie shared a few videos of herself embarking on a 'scary' evening with fellow 2018 Islander Adam Collard, before meeting up with Joey, who she was linked to last month at Amber Davies' birthday party.
In the clip, she has one arm around Joey as he brings her in for a close cuddle. Ellie tells the camera, 'Absolutely smashed it! I'm very proud,' before sharing a kiss with Joey and laughing, 'I can't post that!'
