THE Only Way is Essex best pals Freddie Bentley and Ella Rae Wise had a dramatic falling out while filming in Portugal.
The explosive row led the pair to unfollow each other on Instagram - leading friends to fear their friendship was over for good.
Freddie and Ella weren't on speaking terms before finally calling a truce over the sorry affair.
They have kept quiet about the reason behind the mysterious fallout, but the scenes are set to play out on screen.
Insiders say it was tense situation, but getting their issues all out on the table really helped and they have made up.
A source said: “Ella and Freddie are normally thick as thieves so everyone was really shocked to learn that they had had a bust up.
"The exact reason behind their fallout was something of a mystery but at one point, they weren’t communicating with each other at all.
"Luckily, they managed to clear the air with the cameras rolling and their relationship is back on track.
"Bosses were happy it all unfolded on camera, as it will make for loads of drama when the show returns.”
Fans were delighted when they spotted Freddie and Ella had refollowed each other on Instagram and started leaving comments under their snaps.
They were then pictured enjoying a seafood dinner along with their fellow Towie pal, Dani Imbert.
The Sun has contacted a rep for Towie as well as Ella and Freddie for comment.
