Celebs Go Dating star Steph Pratt has spoken out against axed dating expert, Nadia Essex, saying it was a 'conspiracy' to get Eden Blackman to quit the show, and says she thinks she was also targeted in her online trolling.

Celebs Go Dating star Steph Pratt has shed further light on the trolling controversy that saw Nadia Essex axed from the show mid-season, branding her a 'mean-hearted, unhappy person' who had a 'conspiracy' to get rid of her co-star Eden Blackman for a long time and is 'glad she got caught'.

'Celebs Go Dating' Dating Expert Nadia Essex Axed From Show For 'Twitter Trolling'

The reality star, who appeared on the show and briefly dated co-star Joey Essex, revealed she and Nadia didn't get along during filming, saying: "When I was on the show Nadia was awful to me on and off camera, awful."

"I’m sure that some of her fake accounts were also trolling me".

"I was dating Joey and I knew Nadia before this and she wanted to be this Patti Stranger millionaire matchmaker and I think she’s been on this campaign to get Eden off the show since day one".

This Nadia Essex story is so messed up. Creating fake profiles to troll people is pretty low. Regardless of whether you're in the public eye or not. Glad C4/Lime have decided to axe her from #CelebsGoDating.

The dating expert was axed from the show earlier week when show bosses found her to be 'mis-using social media', setting up fake Twitter accounts to 'troll' people, including reportedly her co-star Eden Blackman.

Eden, according to OK! Magazine, got help from analytics specialists who linked accounts that had sent him 'torrents of abuse' to Nadia's mobile number.

Nadia is yet to comment on her suspension or the Twitter accounts.

The show, which will air this Autumn on e4, announced Nadia will appear on the first part of the new series, before her replacement steps in. This series features Love Island's Eyal Booker and Olivia Atwood and TOWIE's Chloe Sims.
