Celebrity Ex On The Beach ‘sets its sights on Columbia’ for 2021… ‘hoping to attract bigger names’ with the tropical South American location
Celebrity Ex On The Beach is eyeing up Columbia as the location for its next series, according to reports.
According to The Sun, the series is going all out for 2021, having had to cut back on the 2020 series.
The last series was set in Spain – featuring the likes of TOWIE’s Joey Essex and reality TV veteran Calum Best – but the next one seems to be heading much further out.

A source said: ‘They’ve found an incredible location in Colombia in South America and plan to fly out the eight single stars for filming in the New Year.
‘Obviously a jaunt that far afield is going to attract bigger names than the idea of a two-week holiday in Spain so they have high hopes for the talent they want to sign up.
‘Everything is dependent on Covid and travel restrictions but at the moment, the show has the green light and casting has begun.’

‘So I’ll explain it from my my point. So from the get go, I said to Ellie that I didn’t want anything to kind of progress any way because I thought that I would hurt her.’
Interrupting, the outspoken beauty agreed: ‘Yeah, when we left the villa we said we weren’t in a relationship. That was always like set in stone.’
The former firefighter concluded: ‘So I was like, I don’t want it to go anywhere because I know I’m gonna hurt you. And I don’t want to lose the friendship that I’ve got with you because I like, I adore Ellie, like I do.’
