Love Island star Ellie Brown has denied rumours she is dating Jack Greaylish, after she was photographed enjoying the millionaire’s company on a night out.
The 23-year-old recent contestant on Britain’s popular Love Island television show during season four in 2018 lasted four weeks before being dumped from the villa.
Onlookers claimed she had been flirting with the wealthy Man City star, a claim she did not address in a tweet she posted suggesting she and the England gem had just bumped into each other at a party. Witnesses said 25 year old Greaylish and Brown had ended up at the same party, a credible claim given the star quality of the midfielder and the good looks of the Love Island star.
Doubts over the current status of Greaylish’s long-romance with childhood sweetheart Sasha Attwood has left the door open to speculation that he is a free agent , single and ready to mingle.
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday, Ellie lashed out at reports that she and Jack had enjoyed a flirt-fuelled evening of fun together.
She has argued that they just happened to cross paths while on the way to the toilet – and that a carefully placed paparazzi photographer took a couple of snaps which painted a bigger picture than expected.

Ellie mildly responded to the claims on twitter, saying: “This ‘party’ was an event and If you know the venue that’s where the toilets are.
“Must of said hi for all of 30 seconds but you of course never fail.”
A source had told The Sun: “Drinks were flowing and they were flirting like mad. At one point they nipped outside for a quiet chat with some friends.
Ellie did not address claims he had been flirting with Greaylish or had arranged to be in the same party as him.
Meanwhile a source close to Ellie insisted: “There is nothing between Ellie and Jack. She merely bumped into him outside the event. They have mutual friends.”
Their mutual friends potentially brings both Ellie and Greaylish to similar venues and increases the chances of a romantic encounter, if one has not already been sparked.
With Greaylish good looks and high fly status, not many girls in the Uk can resist the thought of doubling up with football star if indeed he is single. Ellie may be no exception either, but certainly won’t want unverified articles announcing what at best for her may be something she would prefer to keep private.
