She rose to fame on Married At First Sight and has gone on to appear on Celebs Go Dating, but it seems we shouldn’t to see Ella Morgan star on any other reality TV shows any time soon.

Ella was one of the breakout stars of MAFS UK 2023 after finding herself in the thick of it following her failed romance with Nathanial Valentino and unexpected comeback alongside JJ Slater, but all the drama didn’t put her off looking for love on telly once again and she went on to sign up to the Celebrity Dating Agency.

During her time on Celebs Go Dating, Ella met her match in hair stylist Alex and they’re still together to this day – and after finding the man of her dreams, Ella has admitted she’s done with reality shows.

Speaking on the red carpet at the Pride of Britain Awards earlier this week, Ella revealed she’s throwing herself into work now that she’s got a boyfriend.

‘Work work work. Career. I found my man now, and he accepts what I do when he loves it. He likes being a little bit part of it, but he just lets me get on with it. So career, and all the things I've got coming up,’ Ella said when asked about her plans for the future.

The former clinic consultant went on to reveal she’s staying in the TV industry but focusing on establishing herself as TV presenter instead of doing more reality.

‘The goal has always been to be like Rylan [Clark], Alison [Hammond], Josie [Gibson], all the people that have naturally been organic and come from a reality show, and I'm sure they've been told along the way, ‘you're from reality, so you’ll never be taken seriously,’ and look at them now. That’s what I want to be,’ Ella continued.

‘I love meeting new people. I love chatting, I could chat to you for hours. I introduced Girls Aloud at Pride. Alex was with me before we got announced. He was like, ‘don’t call my name out,’ and I did. I got in trouble with Channel 4 that I said I was with Alex because it was before it aired. He said, ‘smash it,’ and I was shaking, then I met Cheryl who’s my idol. I had the best time.

‘I feel like I’m doing really well. For a girl who married a stranger and then cheated on her husband, I think I’m doing pretty good.’
