‘Do you? Really? Is that your job title?’ questions the girl.

Many fans are convinced that new girl Ellie will turn the head of Ron Hall, who is currently coupled up with Lana Jenkins.
Ellie, 25, was originally introduced at the beginning of the series when the public was given the option to vote for either her or Tom Clare to be the first bombshell.
She describes herself as ‘confident’ and ready to bring the drama to the villa.
Surprise: The Islanders were enjoying a 90s themed party when they received a text instructing them to gather around the firepit
Speaking to why she’s single she said: ‘I’m single because I fall in love really quick, but I fall out of it just as quickly.
‘I could literally fall in love with a chair and then a week later be like, “Oh wait, no, that’s a chair…”
‘I fall in love quickly because I build up a character of someone in my head and then they breathe in the wrong direction and I’m like, “Next!”
Her type is confident but arrogance gives her the ick and she fancies Travis Fimmel, Matthew McConaughey and Bradley Cooper.

Ellie also has a scar on her leg from an accident when she was drunk and climbed over a gate – nearly losing her leg in the process.
She says: I was in hospital for two weeks but they stitched me back up’.
She thinks she’s the ‘whole package’ and after being single for three years, says she’s ready to find ‘my husband’.
Meanwhile, Spencer says he’s ‘loving’ and has zero filter which he admits can stir up drama that he finds funny.
