It was an 'end of an era' last night (Monday 29th October) as dating guru Lady Nadia Essex officially left her role on popular reality show Celebs Go Dating.
Although rumours initially suggested she'd been AXED from the show for inappropriate tweets about her former co-star Eden Blackman, it was later revealed that Nadia LEFT the show off her own back, with her final scenes being aired on the episode last night (Monday 29th.
Ahead of the episode last night, Nadia didn't hold back with a savage post on her socials. Posting a snap alongside her fellow dating expert Paul Carrick Brunson and the lovable Tom Read Wilson, Nadia wrote, 'Well ladies and gents I do believe tonight is my very last appearance on CGD. It has been a true privilege working with these wonderful men. It didn’t have to go down this way and it will never not hurt. I wish more than anything that Paul had come on board from the start. How very different mine and many other women’s lives would be.'
She added, 'I have never laughed so hard and I have never cried so much yet I will always be thankful that I got to do my dream job even if for a short time. I am thankful for every single one of you who have shown me support and love over the past few weeks. I’ve never been so low and your messages have meant more than the world. Thank you for tuning in each series. Thank you for accepting me flaws and all.'
Nadia then ended her post by writing, 'I wish more than ever to go back but I can only control my journey now going forward. Never stop believing in love. Never stop believing in the truth. Never stop fighting to have your voice heard. Thank you for being the best fans in the world. Love you all ❤️ #celebsgodating'. [sic]
