'A lot of people are going to be shocked'

It’s been four years since Ella Rae Wise joined the TOWIE cast as a fresh-faced 18-year-old – and a lot has happened, from wars of words to tropical romances.

It’s been a busy few months for the 22-year-old, who has recently returned from a drama-filled trip to Thailand with her co-stars, moved into her first home and needed daunting eye surgery after finding a mysterious lump on her eyelid.

Sharing her fears on Instagram, the reality star wrote ‘‘Back in two weeks to see what the lump actually is and hopefully rule out what we do not want it to be... tumour or... I can’t even say it.”

Talking exclusively to new, Ella updates us on her terrifying op, dishes on what went on behind the scenes in Thailand and reveals relationship news about her mystery boyfriend…

It was quite a procedure to get my head around, it was daunting because your eyes are so important, so it did scare me. I’m doing OK at the moment, I was feeling quite low after my operation to be honest. The medication I was on made me feel quite down in the dumps and I was anxious about the results. I’m still waiting on those but I’m just positive thinking so fingers crossed. 

Going through that must have been so scary…
