TOWIE favourite Ella Rae Wise has revealed she was bruised and left with a fractured bone after wrestling Love Island beauty Arabella Chi.
The two blonde bombshells went head-to-head as part of a task for the Channel 5 show but things didn't quite go to plan.
Speaking about her injury, Ella explained: "So in one challenge I fought against Arabella.

"I was like 'What am I going to do? because I don't know how I'm going to wrestle her. I'm tiny compared to how tall she is,' but I did it anyway and ended up fracturing a bone in my hand.
"It was annoying. I was bruised black and blue. We all were. We all had bruises everywhere. We had bruises, we had sort of carpet burns on our knees. We were in the wars.
"But basically when I was on top of Arabella wrestling her to get the ball off of her, she had sort of flipped me round. But where she had flipped me round, my hand was still in the same position as I was before she had flipped me and I felt it pop.
Ella, who enjoyed getting to know Ibiza Weekender hunk Callum Izzard while filming the gruelling reality series, says she joined the case to show her different side.
She said: "I think for me, it was to take myself out of my comfort zone from obviously always being glam and having arguments on the telly in TOWIE.
"I needed to take myself out of my comfort zone, show a different side of me, for the public to see that I'm not just all about being glam 24/7, that I will literally give it my all."
Ella and Arabella were joined by 14 other stars battling it out in a bid to win a jaw-dropping £100,000 as well as a spot in The Challenge World Championships against other champions.
Opening up about her co-stars, Ella said: "It did get super competitive but then at the same time, we all were just like a big family.
"We were all sort of pals. It wasn't like everyone was gunning for each other or it didn't feel like we were in a game.
"The only time that people got competitive was when we were doing the challenges.
"Which made sense anyway, because people needed to win, and people didn't want to come last."
The Challenge UK continues 11.05pm on Channel 5
