Australian model Ellidy Pullin has upset loyal fans after admitting her podcast has put a strain on her friendship with co-host Chloe Fisher.
During a recent episode of her Darling, Shine! podcast, the 31-year-old was asked by a listener about her friendship with Chloe.
‘We’ve never had a fight. The only fights we have are f***ing to do with the dumba*** podcast, which stresses us the f*** out,’ she said.
‘Cause I had other s**t going on, so does Coco.’
In a Facebook group, one fan claimed Ellidy’s comment was a ‘kick in the gut as an OG listener’.
Ellidy also said she doesn’t have time to call her friends who live interstate as she is ‘busy and doesn’t like sitting on the phone’.
‘My friends should know I’m a bit of a long distance person,’ she began.
‘I love you all so much. I make an effort. I go to Sydney all the time. You name it, even if your guinea pig is having its birthday, I’m hopping on a plane and I’m going to be there.’

‘I make an effort, but if I’m not down there, I’m not talking to you all the time. I hope you’re well.’
She said some of her friends get ‘devastated’ when she doesn’t respond to their text messages or call them back.
‘I sometimes get people being like devastated I’m not responding or calling them back. But I’ve been busy and please don’t take this personally but I can’t sit on the phone,’ Ellidy continued.
‘Don’t base our friendship on how many minutes I speak on the phone to you and all that s**t.’

It comes after Ellidy recently said she is finally open to new love, four years after the shocking death of her partner, Alex ‘Chumpy’ Pullin.
The Olympic snowboarder was 32 when he drowned while spearfishing on the Gold Coast in July 2020 but through an incredible IVF and sperm retrieval process, Ellidy was was able to have his baby, a girl named Minnie.
She recently opened up on life with her daughter and their beloved kelpie-cross dog Rummi.
She said there is still some of her late partner’s sperm available if she wanted ‘another Chumpy bubba’, but she is considering other options.
‘I do see myself having a baby one day with someone else, maybe in like five years’ time, but I can’t really see myself getting married,’ she told the Gold Coast Bulletin.
Ellidy revealed that while she is not yet at the point where she wants to date anyone long-term, she has had some flings while on holiday.
‘What goes on in Bali can stay in Bali. But I couldn’t imagine bringing anyone home,’ she told the publication.
‘We’ve never had a fight. The only fights we have are f**king to do with the dumb a** podcast, which stresses us the f**k out,’ she said
‘Right now I’m just really happy with the three of us – me, Minnie and Rummi.’
She said Rummi gave her reason to get up in the morning after Chumpy’s sudden death in the winter of 2020.
The kelpie needed her walks, so they would get up at 5am and walk on the beach for an hour, which Ellidy said was ‘therapy and meditation’ for her and kept her grounded.
Rummi was Chumpy’s dog, who loved him so much that the model sometimes felt like a ‘third wheel’, but now the kelpie never leaves her side.
She said that part of Rummi, and part of her, are still waiting for Chumpy to walk back in the door and that she even has a recurring dream where that happens.
