E4’s Celebs Go Dating<\/a> came to an end tonight, wrapping up one of it’s most successful series yet. Not one, but two celebrities found love with clients on the agents’ books, and are still going strong months after filming.<\/p>\n

Ever since the series started in 2016, the dating agents have warned their celebrity clients away from other celebrities, but of course, that never works. Throughout the years we’ve seen celeb on celeb relationships flourish and break down.<\/p>\n

Megan Barton Hanson<\/a> and Demi Sims met during season 7, although things quickly came crashing down. Laura Anderson and Gary Lucy<\/a> met in 2022, and even went on to have daughter Bonnie together. However, things came to an end a year later. Other notable former romances include Made in Chelsea<\/a> star Sophie Hermann and DJ Tom Zanetti, Josh Ritchie and Liv Bentley, and Joey Essex and Stephanie Pratt.<\/p>\n

But how many people have found love with the agents ‘non-celebrity’ clients while on the show? In one of the most successful series yet, Kerry Katona<\/a> and Jon Lee found love with their new partners right in front of their eyes. And they’re not the only ones who have found love with someone outside the limelight in the process…<\/p>\n

S Club star Jon Lee <\/a>came into the agency having been celibate for six years, and never in his wildest dreams could have imagined finding love.<\/p>\n

However, it was love at first sight when he met Jordan halfway through the process, and the pair seem to still be going strong.<\/p>\n

During the finale, Jordan said the relationship “wasn’t going to end”.<\/p>\n

Jon said: “In him, I’ve found someone who’s kind, gentle and and he’s got this really calming energy that I really gravitate towards, he’s a really good guy.”<\/p>\n

Kerry Katona and Paolo Margaglione<\/h2>\n

Kerry Katona<\/a> joined the agency this year six years after her first stint, and shortly after her breakup with ex fianc\u00e9 Ryan Mahoney.<\/p>\n

We saw the former Atomic Kitten star break down in tears earlier on in the series as she opened up about the ‘real reason’ behind their split.<\/a><\/p>\n

Just days later, she went on a date with Paolo and despite the 11 year age gap, which she was wary about at first, the two haven’t left each other’s side since.<\/p>\n

Since leaving the show, the pair have continued to show their affection towards each other on social media, and have even moved in together.<\/p>\n

Ella Morgan and Alex James<\/h2>\n

After her split from groom JJ Slater, who she met on Married At First Sight<\/a>, Ella decided to join Paul C Brunson’s other dating show in 2024.<\/p>\n

She found love with Alex James pretty quickly, with him even getting her name tattooed. Sadly it wasn’t meant to be, as the couple went their separate ways shortly after, with the MAFS star saying that it’s ‘time to focus on myself.’<\/p>\n

“I am so saddened by the decision, but it was the right thing to do to protect myself and ultimately, for us to both be happy,” she wrote at the start of this year.<\/p>\n

Kimberley Hart-Simpson and Shane Finlayson<\/h2>\n

Coronation Street<\/a> star Kimberley found love with Shane in 2021, but unfortunately, things came to an end six months later<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She explained that the long distance between them and the current coronavirus<\/a> restrictions meant they struggled to make the relationship work.<\/p>\n

“After 6 months of dating Shane and I have decided to part ways,” she wrote on Instagram<\/a> at the time. “We are proud of our journey and respect each other immensely. The show has been the best experience.<\/p>\n

“Our journey after that even better but with the distance between us, work commitments and restrictions can naturally take its toll.”<\/p>\n

Alison Hammond and Ben Fusi<\/h2>\n

This Morning<\/a> star and nation’s sweetheart Alison Hammond<\/a> met audio technician Ben Fusi, however, things didn’t last long.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Alison, neither did her memory of Ben’s name as she confessed her mind was blank when asked to recall their love on This Morning. “Oh no, he’s going to be watching! What’s his name?” she repeated, before adding: “I’m so sorry.”<\/p>\n
