The reality star’s floor-length pastel coloured gown beautifully resembled a transgender pride flag and featured a fitted basque as well as long layers of tulle.

Talking about signing up to MAFS, Ella previously said: ‘I’m so open. Going into this I knew I’d get a lot of backlash and hate.
‘I don’t like labelling myself as a trans woman because you feel a sense of shame sometimes. But the amount of support I have has shown me how amazing the public are but it has shown the negative side.
‘It’s 2023 and I’m making history. It shouldn’t be making history. I’m the same as the other girls. I’m 90 per cent crazy, 10 per cent trans. Feeling like you’re the voice of the community. I can only talk for myself. But I hope I’m doing them proud.’
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat ahead of the season’s premiere, Ella said she felt ‘honoured and privileged’ to represent the trans community on such a large platform.
‘When I was younger, before I physically transitioned I didn’t have anyone like this to look up to.
‘It makes me happy that hopefully there’s a generation of trans boys and girls who may have hope because they’re going to see someone like me on their TV.’
