Katie Price is said to have sparked a new feud with Married At First Sight star Ella Morgan after being pictured with Ella’s ex John Joe Slater.
Former glamour model Katie, 45, seemingly confirmed her rumoured romance with Married At First Sight UK star JJ, 31, as they were spotted looking ‘very cosy’ on a night out in Newcastle last week.
After pictures emerged of the pair looking close, sources close to Ella, 29, say the reality star, who is transgender, is furious and feels ‘betrayed’ as she had become good friends with Katie.
‘Ella is fuming and feels really betrayed by Katie for talking to her ex JJ,’ a source told The Sun.
‘Ella and Katie have become friends over recent months, so it surprised her that Katie would do that.
‘She doesn’t have any feelings for JJ, she’s just livid that Katie went behind her back and broke girl code.’
MailOnline has contacted Ella representatives for comment. Katie’s representatives declined to comment.
Katie was spotted with JJ at late night venue Bobby’s bar following her recent split from Carl Woods.
One onlooker told The Mirror: ‘He came in after her and they sat together for at least an hour’.
‘They looked very cosy together, especially when she rested her arm on his shoulder.’
According to the publication Katie later took to the stage to entertain the crowd with a song on the karaoke before shocking revellers as she shouted into the microphone: ‘I f****** love you c****** f****** s******* b*******!.’
When the spark in their relationship fizzled, he went on to exchange messages with bride Ella Morgan behind Bianca’s back.
JJ and Ella were exposed during a dramatic dinner party when Ella’s groom Nathanial Valentino exploded over the messages and stormed out, leaving the show.
John, also known as JJ, is said to have caught her eye when they met following his appearance on the most recent series of MAFS UK last year.
A source previously told The Sun: ‘They’ve met a few times and are texting each other constantly.
‘She’s really into him – this is the first man she’s actually been interested in since Carl.’
Katie made the surprise announcement she was single in a New Year’s video.
She was last spotted with Carl on December 21 last year as they stepped out arm in arm together after her pantomime performance of Sleeping Beauty in Liverpool.
Katie and Carl previously split towards the end of November and unfollowed each other on Instagram but appeared to have reconciled for the Liverpool outing before going their separate ways once again.
Days later, Carl took a swipe at his ex-fiancée Katie Price as he posed while embracing a mystery woman’s legs, adorned with a tattoo reading ‘Game Over’.
