The reality star was dumped from the villa early last month alongside Jordan Odofin, having initially entered as a bombshell this series.

Taking to her Instagram yesterday (March 1), Ellie posted a new look with blonder highlights, captioning the post: "Thank you @beautyclublondon for my cut and colour today!!!!".

Meanwhile, following her exit from the series, the star took to social media to claim that there was unaired drama between contestants that viewers didn't get to see.

"There was a girl divide, there was a boy divide, everyone was feuding. There were arguments like left and right that never got aired and I'm like: 'This is TV gold'," she shared via TikTok.

"I get it's a dating show and they only have 40 minutes. They can't show everything but I was there for the drama. So I'm so surprised that none of that got shown. But it makes more sense when you understand like the underlying shit that's going on in there. And there was a lot of tension."

Fellow contestant Tanyel Revan also revealed last month that she was involved in an argument with Ellie over Ron Hall that never made it to air.

"I had a really, really, funny, bad argument with Ellie. I think it would have shown my more fiery side. I literally had word vomit, I could not help how I felt. Honestly, just everything I felt, I said it," she told Digital Spy.

"I think it would have been nice for them to see my fiery side and how I've always been direct to say how it is, but I really said how it was."

Love Island airs nightly on ITV2, and is available via catch up on ITVX and BritBox.
