A Naked Attraction star found herself brought to tears after criticising her date for having "small balls".
Returning with a big splash this Wednesday evening (March 6), Channel 4's show featured Illy, a 33-year-old model from Mansfield, back on the market for a new man. Fans may remember Illy from her 2021 appearance on the show where she failed to spark romance with her then-date Iain.
The model had two possible matches but decided on Tom. Cutting straight to the chase, Illy said: "I picked Tom because he's fit as f**k. Straight 10."
For their date, they chose a cocktail bar. Illy confessed to feeling nervous when Tom walked in, but it was a successful date as the sparks flew between them and even led to a kiss outside the bar.
They concluded the night by heading back to the hotel. Illy hung a 'do not disturb' sign on the door, leaving fans guessing about what happened next.
Two weeks on, they caught up again and recapped how things went. "The date was absolutely fantastic," Illy heartily shared.
"I had a proper cracking time." She further revealed that they extended their stay by another night since they were thoroughly enjoying each other's company.
However, their brief romance took a downturn just days afterwards.

"I think it was about four days later I got hit with the friend zone," Illy described. She went on to read out the text she received from Tom.
The TV star started off by saying, "I'd just like to say I'm sorry for how I've been these last few days. I've been working stupid hours. I've realised I've not got time for anything."
Illy was upset and threw her phone when she read the last bit of Tom's message: "I'm really sorry but I wish you all the best."
She then cried and was angry, saying: "I feel f***ing stupid that I let my guard down and let myself be vulnerable."
When Tom sat with Illy, things got even more tense. Illy was mad and asked, "So I'm not your type then? Why didn't you say that?
She said if he really wanted to make it work, he would have found the time, but he wasn't brave enough to say so.
She fumed: "If you wanted to make time for it to work then you would've done, but your balls aren't big enough to say that."
Illy said she wouldn't stop looking for love and then walked away from Tom.
Naked Attraction episodes are available to stream on All4.
