MARRIED At First Sight bombshell Ella Morgan has spoken for the first time since 'collapsing' at the Baftas.

The 29-year-old reality star sparked concern when her legs gave way on the red carpet at the Royal Festival Hall, London, on Sunday afternoon.

Ella was assessed by medics at the time and declared fit to attend the ceremony.

Explaining what happened on Instagram last night, she wrote: "To everyone asking how I am after my Baftas 'collapsing' incident...

"I am perfectly OK now, I was just very hot, my body had overheated and felt weak, I hadn't eaten enough or drank enough that was all, hence why I was very light headed and felt faint.

"I was fine after I'd seen the medic, sat down, and been checked over!

"All good here now folks, lesson learnt, drink more water!

"Still looked iconic in my outfit if I do say so myself."

Onlookers on the day told us how Ella had made it clear the heat was affecting her.

They said: “The cast and crew from Channel 4 grabbed hold of her and helped her stay on her feet before it was decided to call in the medics.

“The crew rallied around her to create shade from the sun while she was being evaluated."

Ella found fame on E4 series MAFS last year and made history as the first ever transgender bride, entering into a messy relationship with groom Nathanial Valentino.

She controversially ended the show with co-star JJ Slater after they both cheated on their partners to find romance.

However, it didn't last and JJ is now dating Katie Price.

Ella, who has signed up for the new series of Celebs Go Dating, was quickly back to her usual bubbly self at the Baftas after the medical intervention.

And she had plenty of energy left for the glitzy event's afterparty.

She was caught on camera snogging Strictly star Bobby Brazier multiple times in a surprise hook-up.

A partygoer said: “Bobby and Ella were going for it, it was a proper snog and he went back a couple of times for more.

“They were sharing flirty banter and then they pulled each other to one side for a snog by the bar.

“Later, they had their arms wrapped around each other for another snog, too.”

Bobby, who has played Freddie Slater on EastEnders since 2022, began dating Strictly winner Ellie Leach, 23, in January this year.

Two months later he was linked to Walford co-star Jazzy Phoenix but he said at the Baftas: “She’s not my girlfriend!”

Bobby, 19, showed off his dance moves at the afterparty on Sunday and hung out with Sid Owen, 52, who played Ricky Butcher in EastEnders.

The source continued: “Bobby and Sid were having a great time chatting at the bar.

“It was like watching a real-life episode of East­Enders with the older man schooling the young lad who then went off and enjoyed a kiss or two.”
