From Islanders to footballers: A rundown of the Celebs Go Dating 2024 cast dating histories
I miss the Chris Taylor and Maura Higgins era
The 13th season of Celebs Go Dating is currently underway and the new batch of celebrity clients at the dating agency are bringing all the hot goss a good reality show needs. Helen Flanagan allegedly had a boyfriend whilst filming the show, Stephen Webb has been in hot water for being too crude and Chris Taylor has shown more chest than anyone needs to ever see.
The tea is certainly flowing amongst the celebs on the show, but what was did their love lives look like before? From Love Island bombshells to high profile footballers, here’s a rundown of the dating history of the entire Celebs Go Dating 2024 cast.
Helen Flanagan

Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has not kept quiet about her previous relationship whilst on the show, as she’s found difficulty in refraining from bringing her ex up on her dates with other celebs.
Previously in a 13 year relationship with footballer Scott Sinclair, the couple got engaged in 2018 and share three children together, but went separate ways in 2022.
Scott Sinclair has played for the likes of Chelsea, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic and Swansea, whilst he also played for the U17s England team.
Speaking about her break up on the show, Helen told the dating agents that she felt “invisible” during her relationship with Scott, adding that they weren’t “compatible”.
More recently, Helen has been spotted with another former footballer, Robbie Talbot, who she’s been rumoured to have been in a relationship throughout the duration of filming the show.
Chris Taylor

Chris has quite a predictable dating history compared to the rest of the Celebs Go Dating 2024 cast – notably that two of his exes are also from Love Island.
Fresh out the Love Island villa, Chris continued on his relationship with Harley Brash, who he was coupled up with. However, the relationship ended two weeks after the final. A top contender for the quickest post Love Island break up!
After leaving the villa, we all remember where we were when Chris Taylor dropped the bomb that he was dating fellow ex Love Islander, Maura Higgins, in an incredible hard launch Instagram post.
The pair were on the same iconic series back in 2019 and later struck up a romance together, despite nothing happening romantically between them on the show.
Chris and Maura were together for six months and in a dramatic statement on Instagram, Maura shared the reason for their split was because “we have realised we work better as friends.”
Ella Morgan

Ella featured on Married At First Sight in 2023 and initially married Nathaniel Valentino, however, their relationship quickly fizzled out after he accused her of lying on their honeymoon.
Ella then caused a stir by coupling up with fellow contestant JJ Slater, resulting in Nathaniel and JJ’s designated partner, Bianca Petronzi, having to abruptly leave the show.
JJ and Ella decided they were better suited as friends, with the end of their relationship being announced at the finale.
JJ is now currently dating no other than Katie Price, whilst Ella has previously been linked to Bobby Brazier, with the two being spotted have a cheeky snog back at the BAFTAs in May.

The bird watching, ex safari guide posh hunk, Tristan Phipps, had several love interests during his time on Made in Chelsea. Most famously, his relationship with Olivia Bentley lasted three years and was nothing short of tumultuous.
In the past, Tristan also dated fellow MIC stars Verity Bowditch, Sophie Habboo and Ella Willis. He was also affiliated with loads of other stars of the show, sharing kisses with Lauren Sintes and Yasmine Zweegers. Talk about having a type – girl do exist outside of Chelsea, Tristan!
Stephen Webb

The potty mouthed Gogglebox star has not been shy about his recent divorce whilst on the show. Stephen was married to his telly watching co-star, Daniel Lustig, but went separate ways last year after six years of marriage.
After their engagement in 2016, Daniel became a familiar face on the Gogglebox sofa, joining his fiancé and becoming a firm fan favourite.
Stephen previously dated Chris Ashby-Steed, who also appeared next to him on the iconic British TV watching show and continued to appear on the show until 2018, although the two had broken up in 2013.
Jamelia

The superstar who sings Superstar is looking for love at the agency after her two broken marriages. Jamelia revealed on the show that when she was 16 she began a relationship with 25-year-old music manager, Terry Wallen, with whom she had a daughter with in 2001.
She then married footballer Darren Byfield in 2008, who she had another daughter with but sadly, they divorced within the same year.
Following her divorce, Jamelia stepped away from the spotlight and married a mystery man. After five years together and another daughter, the two also went their separate ways.
Hopefully, Jamelia will find Mr Right on the show for herself and her three daughters.
Lauryn Goodman
Lauryn Goodman is set to join the cast halfway through the series, with her first date with the agency airing next month. The influencer has been EVERYWHERE in the press lately after an incredibly messy ordeal with England footballer, Kyle Walker, as their secret affair and birth of their two children all occurred whilst Kyle was married to Annie Kilner.
Lauryn has recently taken the England footie star to family court, where she allegedly demanded a £2.4 million mansion, £350,000 per annum of childcare and a £31,000 football pitch off him. Yikes.
The Lauryn Goodman/Kyle Walker/Annie Kilner lore is all too much for my little brain to even begin to understand, but it’s safe to say Lauryn might bring some drama to the show when she arrives in September.
