Love Island star Ella Thomas' shock A-lister friendship as they party in LA together

Love Island star Ella Thomas has opened up on her unexpected friendship with Kylie Jenner after the pair were seen partying together in Los Angeles.

Back in March, Ella, who recently recalled a terrifying incident she experienced while walking her dog, left fans stunned after she posed for pictures with Kylie and Kris Jenner while attending the launch of the TV personality’s debut fragrance Cosmic, which was released through her brand Kylie Cosmetics.

But now the 24 year old has shone light on her unexpected friendship with the Kardashians family and has revealed how she ended up being “personally invited” to the lavish party by Kylie herself.

Speaking on the Saving Grace podcast, Ella explained that she works with Kylie Cosmetics regularly and as a result was invited to LA for the launch of the perfume alongside “one other girl from the UK”.

She said: “It was fun, it was a little vibe. We went to the launch party, you know Kylie personally invited us. She personally chose every single person, the team were like told all the girls that they work with, choose who you want to come.”

Having met 26 year old Kylie at the event, the former Love Island star gushed over the TV personality. “She was so lovely. She was honestly such a babe!,” she told podcast host GK Barry.

To make things even better, Ella revealed that Kylie’s pals made reference to her time on the ITV show as they referenced her iconic saying - ‘shut it down’.

“All of her friends were shouting at me 'shut it down, shut it down' , I was like no way!,” she explained. “She [Kylie] didn't say 'shut it down', her friends did.”

The news of Ella’s friendship with the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star comes after she and former partner Tyrique Hyde dropped hints that they may have reconciled their relationship after they uploaded Snapchat stories from the same London shopping centre, at the same time.

While former footballer Tyrique posted a photo at one shop alongside the simple caption “Forgive”, Ella appeared to be in the same location when she posted a picture of a Louis Vuitton shopping bag.

Back in February it was reported that the pair had allegedly split for good after six months together and that the couple, who met on Love Island last year, had “decided it's time to go their separate ways.”
