Ibiza Weekender Ellie Young reveals new career after shooting to fame on ITV2 reality show eight years ago
ELLIE Young have revealed her new career after shooting to fame on the ITV2 reality show eight years ago.
The 30-year-old joined the second series of the programme in 2016 as a holiday rep.
Now Ellie has embarked on a new career as a TV presenter.
The reality favourite, who is from Pontefract in West Yorkshire, has travelled to London to take part in a fast track course at The Presenter Studio.
The company’s bio states: “Voted the UK’s No 1 Presenter Training Company – work with BAFTA award winning TV Producers who coach clients in TV presenting & presentation skills.”
Yesterday was her first day and shared some videos of her doing her thing on Instagram.
In one clip Ellie rocked a black and white shirt with matching wide leg trousers as she practised in front of the camera.
She walked towards the camera man while in a park, with what sounds like she was presenting a show called My Secret Date.
Ellie said: “Day one
“Loved it thank you @thepresenterstudio .”
Fans rushed to the comments section to share the love.
One said: “You’ll absolutely smash this and I can see you presenting love island next xxx.”
Another added: “Absolute natural! .”
Celebrity Big Brother winner and Ibiza Weekender co-star chimed in: “Superstar ”
In another post, Ellie confessed: “Sooooo much fun this fast track presenter training programme.”
The Weekender franchise hit our screens in 2013.
Series one to three were called The Magaluf Weekender, and located in Lively Hotel in Magaluf.
Then in 2015 it was renamed Ibiza Weekender.
The show then returned to our screens as Kavos Weekender in 2023.
Last year The Sun revealed how the iconic reality TV series had been scrapped after 10 years.
Despite not being on the show for a number of years, Ellie has a very successful career as a social media influencer.
Last year she splashed out on a £41k car, just months after she was attacked after filming a new TV show.
In April, she was left with a busted lip and clumps missing from her hair following the incident in Pontefract, West Yorkshire.
After her stint on Ibiza Weekender, in 2017 Ellie was offered a place on Love Island, but decided to go on Celebrity Big Brother.
She placed ninth on the show.
Ellie is very loved up with her fiance Matt Clow.
They got engaged in 2021 when he proposed on Valentine’s Day.
