Insiders told The Sun: ‘Ella is fuming and feels really betrayed by Katie for talking to her ex JJ. Ella and Katie have become friends over recent months…
‘So it surprised her that Katie would do that. She doesn’t have any feelings for JJ, she’s just livid that Katie went behind her back and broke girl code.’
John, also known as JJ, is said to have caught Katie’s eye when they met following his appearance on the most recent series of MAFS UK last year.
A source previously told The Sun: ‘They’ve met a few times and are texting each other constantly. She’s really into him – this is the first man she’s actually been interested in since Carl.’
Katie and Carl have been in a turbulent relationship since July 2020, they were last seen together on December 21
