Romantic Tensions in Vietnam
In tonight's episode (May 17), available on ITV2 and ITVX, tensions within Girl Band reached boiling point. Meanwhile, Dani addressed her relationship status after a tender moment with Jonnie during the cast's Vietnam getaway. Harry quizzed Jonnie directly: 'I want to ask a question Jonnie. On the last night I seen you basically spooning Dani on the sofa.'
Jonnie responded: 'Listen, I think um, I said this on the last day when we was with Elma and Dani, I don't even know how it happened, we just got comfortable with each other we spent more time with each other.' He added: 'There was one night, we had a kiss but we've not really spoke about that what's going on since we've been back. It's just been chill, I said I don't want to put pressure on anything that's going on.'
Scream Therapy on the Beach
Later, viewers saw Dani and Ella head to the beach for 'scream therapy'. Letting out frustrations, Dani yelled: 'I hate that I'm a cougar, release me from being a cougar.' She continued: 'I hate it here.. keep Jonnie away from me please.' When Ella asked about her feelings, Dani confessed: 'I'm such a cougar... It's just still like quite light hearted, it's just a flirt but I don't think it's anything, it's not anything...'
Exclusive Podcast Revelations
Off-screen, TOWIE fans are backing the potential pairing. In an exclusive snippet on the You Alright, Hun? Podcast, Dani revealed: 'I think now we're off, but that's only for now. We're back in contact a little bit, we haven't seen each other and like we've had conversations. We know we miss each other but we're not sure where it's going to go, so I feel like there's a lot of conversations to be had. That's the exclusive, we're in contact again and we wasn't so that's a step in the right direction.' She added: 'We're in contact, we're talking. But I haven't seen him in four weeks so I can't really say we're back on.'
