The can reveal that Ella and Alex are still together and have dropped the 'L-word' since the series ended. Ella told us: "Life has been amazing since Celebs Go Dating. I've got my man. I love him. I literally love him." Sharing an insight into the couple's next big move, she continued: "We've talked about marriage, moving in and me meeting his son."

She went on: "The show completely changed my love life. After 30 years, I finally have a boyfriend. I'm still in shock that it happened to me. I genuinely never thought I would meet someone after 10 years of not dating. I had started to think that I was the problem and I would always be lonely. Being trans, I have more struggles to contend with. I thought I would always be on my own."

But Alex has restored Ella's faith in love. She said: "I'm really grateful I have found someone that I have an amazing connection with. It's not about being trans, it's not a fetish for him. We actually haven't even spoken that in-depth about it, and that's the first time for me with any guy I've dated. He just says, 'You're Ella to me' and I love it."

Ella attended the POB Awards last year for the first time and was invited back again to celebrate Britain's heroes on the 25th anniversary. She said: "Out of all the events I get invited to, this one is the best. It means something and it's about ordinary people being brave. It's amazing and all I do is cry. It's an honour to be here tonight."

Fans watched Ella and Alex grow closer on-screen after they met on one of the E4 show's retreats. When Ella was unwell and had to take some time out from filming, Alex proved himself a gentleman and sent her flowers to wish her a quick recovery. He then went on to surprise her with a tattoo, which left her stunned but over the moon.

Shortly after the finale wrapped up, a source said: "Ella and Alex have been inseparable since they met on Celebs Go Dating and have remained together since filming wrapped in July." They added to : "They've finally made their relationship official after Ella brought Alex as a plus one to a number of recent high-profile events, such as the Married at First Sight launch.

"Ella has told pals how happy she is and how Alex has made her laugh and feel safe compared to any other man she's dated. He identifies as a straight man and just sees Ella for her, as a woman, rather than a label and has been really supportive of her. They've talked about falling in love and see a future together. Ella has even introduced Alex to her family, as has he."
