Celebs Go Dating viewers leap to Chris Taylor's defence as he clashes with date during debate about men having female friends in painfully awkward scene

As a seasoned observer of human dynamics and relationships, I must say, I wholeheartedly stand with Chris Taylor during his debate on male-female friendships. In my vast experience of navigating the complexities of interpersonal connections, I’ve found that trust is the cornerstone of any successful relationship, romantic or otherwise.


Viewers of Celebs Go Dating rallied support for Chris Taylor when he had a disagreement with a date over the topic of whether men can maintain friendships with women, causing some tense moments in the show’s episodes that aired on Monday.

In the most recent installment, the Love Island noteworthy figure aged 34, along with other popular personalities, encountered their former dates. This encounter stirred up lingering tension and even blunt revelations about past experiences.

Indeed, Chris found himself right in the thick of things when an ex-date voiced criticism towards him, claiming that he had dashed any chance of a romantic relationship due to his unwillingness to limit the number of female companions he kept.

During the discussion, the woman hinted to Chris that she might feel uneasy if her partner had female friends. However, Chris countered by stating that he couldn’t be in a relationship with someone who dictated his choice of friends, expressing that such behavior clashed with his personal beliefs.

Meanwhile, the confrontation during the event drew some surprised reactions, but those watching at home generally supported Chris. Many commented that he was correct in standing up against date controls who tried to determine his choice of friends.

They penned: ‘He said nothing wrong she just didn’t like how fast he made up his mind. I wouldn’t like it if a guy said I couldn’t have male friends.’

‘Regarding Chris’ team, it’s best to be straightforward if something is an immediate deal-breaker. Pretending otherwise can lead to unnecessary time-wasting, especially with so many people who seem interested but eventually disappear in the dating world.’

‘He’s definitely not my favourite on here, but I completely agree with him. That’s crazy.’

If our beliefs and principles don’t match, there seems little purpose in continuing this discussion, as it may not lead to mutual understanding or progress.

‘He was right. A relationship like that wouldn’t be healthy.’

1. He was correct, and on the specified day, I felt he was respectful and honest as the agency suggests they should be.

During their seating arrangement on the couch facing each other, Chris was informed by his date that in a conversation about male-female friendships, she expressed discomfort with men having numerous female friends.

Chris quickly interjected, remarking: ‘You said any! You said any. Not a lot, you said any.’

It seemed the interruption didn’t sit well with the date, as she gave a disapproving expression, while Helen Flanagan and Tristan Phipps exchanged surprised glances.

Next, the shot shifted to Stephen Webb as he addressed Ella Thomas with this query: “Doesn’t she expect to encounter someone without any female acquaintances?”

The awkward exchange continued as Chris said to the woman: ‘I have a lot of girl friends, friends that are girls. I personally couldn’t be with somebody that wouldn’t ‘let’ me have friends that are girls.

‘Because for me, that’s coming from a place of mistrust.’

In his explanation, he stated that he ended any possibility of a romantic relationship due to a significant difference in values, expressing doubt that the connection could progress any farther at this time.

In response to his remarks, the captivating brunette told dating consultant Paul C Brunson, “I sensed he closed off completely, denying me any opportunity. Following his mention of a friend, it seemed as if you no longer wished to hear my thoughts.”

In the given episode, Stephen encountered some of the harshest criticism the show has ever witnessed, leading to a rigorous interrogation by the agents due to his subpar humor during dates.

Ella discovered herself in a tricky situation when it was uncovered that she had lied to the agents regarding the outcome of one of her dates.
