Love Island star Ellie Brown has confirmed her relationship status after rumours started to swirl she was dating Michael Griffiths.
The star took to Instagram with a picture of herself posing in front of the camera with her hand raised up to her head.
And while there was no mention of her fellow islander in the caption, she did tease she was seeing someone.
‘When ur mans giving u a migraine,’ the 21-year-old wrote to her followers.
However, the reality star’s Ex on the Beach pal, Sophie Kasaei, was quick to comment and called her out on the phrase.
‘Who’s ya mandem then,’ she quizzed underneath the snap.
Replying to her buddy, it turns out Ellie is actually not seeing anyone, as she confessed: ‘I couldn’t be anymore single just thought it was a funny caption.’
The post comes just days after it was rumoured Ellie was secretly seeing Michael – who previously dated Love Island’s reigning champ, Amber Gill.
A source told The Sun: ‘Ellie and Michael hit it off during filming on Ex On The Beach and now they’ve started dating.
‘They were supposed to keep the relationship under wraps until the show had aired of course, but it seems they just couldn’t keep quiet.’
The insider added: ‘They both know what it’s like to be caught up in the drama of a big reality TV show and they really bonded during their time on the programme.
‘Now there’s a new Love Island couple on the block.’
Michael is yet to address the speculation, however it seems as though he’s keeping busy as it’s said he’ll be joining the cast of Ex On The Beach.
Talking about his venture, the star’s ex Amber told Metro.co.uk: ‘Good for him… That’s a good opportunity for him, I have to say. That is a good opportunity.’
But she insisted we wouldn’t be seeing her rocking up to said beach anytime soon, as she continued: ‘I haven’t got time to be doing things like Ex On The Beach…’
