Joshua Ritchie turns on 'toxic' Charlotte Crosby hours after joining Celebs Go Dating

Celebs Go Dating have confirmed Joshua Ritchie is returning to the show, this time on the season eight line-up as a singleton following his split from Charlotte Crosby.

Josh and Charlotte appeared on the last series in the couples' therapy special.

During the show, Josh and Charlotte admitted to problems in their two-year romance, with the former Love Island star telling her she was "talking down" to him.

Since then, former Geordie Shore star Charlotte headed to Bolton to live with Josh, but the pair recently confirmed they had split for good.

Now, Joshua has confirmed his place on Celebs Go Dating while also hitting out at his ex, calling their romance "toxic".

Claiming he dumped her as things weren't working out, Josh made a dig at his ex as he vowed to find love on the show.

In a new teaser on the Celebs Go Dating Twitter , he said: "This time I'm at the agency and I'm single.

"I split up with my ex-girlfriend. It got a bit too much, it started to get toxic so I took myself out of that bad energy.

"So now I'm ready to get back onto the map and get dating."

Referencing his ex, he went on: "I was here last time with Charlotte, the agents gave us great advice. But me and Charlotte couldn't put it together and unfortunately we split."

He then said he had loads to offer, before grabbing his manhood.

Confirming his place on the show, he said previously: "Honestly, I'm chuffed to be heading back to the Celebs Dating Agency to dip my toe back into the dating world.

"It's an exciting time for me, and after having been in a relationship for such a while I'm glad I've got the agents to help me get back in the dating game.

"That whole scene can be difficult and I've probably dated girls in the past that weren't the best for me so this time, hopefully, CGD can set me up with some easy going ladies who are fun to be around, full of confidence and won't be on my case too much! I cannot wait! Bring on the mixers!"

Dating agent Anna Williamson said: “After some excellent progress in couples therapy with Charlotte, we never expected Josh to be back so soon! We welcome him back with open arms as a single man to hopefully find the love that’s escaped him’.”
