Leeds-based Ellie will be off the show for the foreseeable future, following Nat’s hit and run incident two weeks ago.
According to The Sun, Channel 4 bosses have been extra supportive about the situation, telling her to take as much time as she needs before she is ready to come back.
A source told the news outlet: “Channel 4 take duty of care really seriously.

“Obviously Ellie and Izzi are two of the most loved regulars on the show but it wouldn’t be right for them to have to film a light-hearted show when Nat is in such a critical condition.
“Producers have made it clear there is no pressure to return to filming and they can take all the time they need.”
Nat was involved in a horrific accident
On Friday 18 March, Nat was on his way home from the pub when he was struck by a white Seat Leon just after midnight.
Nat, who lives with the Gogglebox star, suffered extensive injuries from the horror accident, including a broken neck, broken back and two collapsed lungs.
