Ella is currently in the UK filming for the upcoming season following her recent vacation with her former MAFS co-star Domenica Calarco.
The pair spend the summer travelling in Southern Italy, exploring coastal cities like Naples, Positano and Sicily.
It's not the first time a reality star has jumped from one hit show to another, as Stephanie Pratt joined Made In Chelsea in 2013 off the back of the iconic MTV series The Hills, which ended in 2010.
Made In Chelsea follows several young men and women in their 20s and 30s who were born into affluent families.

It sees the group go through various dramas while living in one of London's most exclusive areas, like Belgravia, Chelsea and Knightsbridge.
The news comes after Ella and her podcast co-host Domenica revealed they've 'struggled a lot' with their mental health since participating on MAFS.
The BFFs spoke about their issues with stress and anxiety on their podcast Sit With Us on Wednesday.
'The thing about going back to Australia is I feel guilty when I'm not working, and I feel like it's very different here [in Europe],' Domenica said.

'I feel like when I'm stressed at home, the stress is a lot worse. I feel like the expectation, the comparison, is so much more intense,' she added.
'I've struggled a lot with my mental health in Australia the past few months and being here [in Europe] it's really opened my eyes.'
Domenica added that she feels a lot more laid-back in Europe, and spending the summer abroad had been good for her mental health.

Domenica also said she needs to stop 'comparing herself to others' and that she 'needs to get better at managing her own stress'.
'I think that's the one thing travel has taught me: take care of yourself more [and] stop comparing. I need to just focus on me more and I don't think I was doing that for a really long time,' she said.
Her co-host Ella added that indulging in Italian food while abroad had tested her mental health because she suffers from a binge-eating disorder.
'If I'm not strict with myself, I will lose myself and it's not good for my mental health. That's why I need to workout and exercise 'cause that's what keeps me strong-minded,' she said.

It comes after Domenica recently revealed the bizarre treatment she uses to manage her stress and anxiety.
Speaking on her podcast, she opened up about her struggle with mental health over the years, which began in her teens.
'I've dealt with anxiety and depression since I was 16 years old,' she said. 'I've got every trick in the book.'

The makeup artist explained she carries Vicks VapoRub around no matter where she goes.
'For me, when I smell Vicks, it instantly calms me,' she explained. 'So Vicks is like my safety blanket.
'Look, it's odd but whatever. Everyone's got their own little thing.
'It's always in my bag. If I'm feeling a bit anxious before I get out of the car or I've got a meeting or something, I just smell my Vicks. I put some on the inside of my wrists or a little bit on my chest and it just calms my nerves.'
