‘I’ve known Elle for a long time now and can safely say I know her better than any of the cast, and she is one of the most amazing, caring, loving, nurturing and compassionate people you will ever meet.
‘She doesn’t deserve hateful or nasty DMs or comments on her posts. If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Please and thank you.’
Elle’s antics on the show have certainly raised a few eyebrows, after she categorically denied calling her co-star Sarah St James ‘fake’ to anyone who would ask.
This is in spite of the fact the moment was recorded, with her closest friends later revealing she had used the insulting word to describe the Gold Coast beauty.

It comes as viewers branded the controversial Netflix series ‘awful yet addictive’ following its debut on Wednesday night.
