Celebrity Big Brother fans are predicting a show romance between two contestants just days into the new series.
ITV2 viewers seem convinced they spotted ‘chemistry’ between Love Island star Chris Hughes, 32, and TOWIE’s Ella Rae Wise, 24.
During Tuesday’s episode, the pair teamed up to clean the kitchen, where fans were certain there was some flirty banter between them.
Later in the episode, when housemates were finally given access to the bedroom, the pair then picked beds next to each other.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they shared: ‘Chris and Ella are gonna have a little romance #CBBUK;
‘Ella and Chris romance looms #cbbuk;

‘Is there going to be romance between Chris and Ella or is it just me getting those vibes? #CBBUK’
‘Chris is Ella gonna give us a mix between TOWIE & Love Island #CBBUK;
‘Oh Ella and Chris are so getting together. I’m calling it now. Why do I feel like they know each other though;
‘Oh here we go. The Ella and Chris storyline begins. #CBBUK; Not Chris and Ella flirting already lmao. The romance EVERYONE saw coming. #CBBUK #CBB.’
It comes after TOWIE’s Dan Edgar was reportedly left feeling blindsided as his ex Ella made her Celebrity Big Brother debut on Monday night – after their shock split.
It was revealed as the episode aired that the reality TV couple had called it quits after an on-off relationship.
And during her opening VT, newly-single Ella cheekily remarked: ‘I could literally float with a loaf of bread. I could flirt with anything! I’m flirting with the camera.’
And pals have now told The Sun that Dan was hurt by her comments after believing their breakup had been fairly amicable.

A source told the publication: ‘They were still chatting after the big row on Wednesday as had both agreed it just wasn’t working.
‘But everything was pretty amicable. They were just chatting as normal, the odd text and that, and spoke on Sunday just before she went into lockdown.
‘But he was blindsided by the comments she made about being such a flirt last night, and how she flirted with everyone constantly, as that’s just not nice to hear.’
Representatives for Dan and Ella have been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
Ella confirmed her break up on Monday and entered the Big Brother house single as she revealed she has called it quits with her co-star after 18 months of dating.
‘We can’t just be together because we have a great sex life,’ the reality star said as she told The Sun of their shock break up.
‘We are not together – and it’s really, really sad that we’re not together, we split up a week ago,’ she said.
Ella insisted the split had nothing to do with her entering the CBB house – despite her just days ago reportedly promising Dan she wouldn’t flirt with Love Islander and fellow housemate Chris Hughes.
She went on to say that while Dan is sweet, there was ‘something missing’ between them and she didn’t want to waste each other’s time.
