This Morning star Michelle Elman appeared on the show on Wednesday as she revealed her cheating ex fiancé was found on a dating website while he was with her. 

The life coach and author, 30, who has frequently appeared on the ITV show to give advice about relationships, tearfully took to her Instagram last week to explain that she had ended their engagement after just 24 hours. She learnt on the day he proposed that he had cheated on her.

The TV star teared up as she declared that her partner had 'f***ed up' and 'ruined a really good thing', but insisted she was going to be OK. 

Now she has appeared on This Morning where she told how she was messaged by another woman who found her now former partner on a dating site.

She told hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley: 'We met on a dating app, he was my first date after the pandemic. Love of my life, healthiest relationship I had ever had.

'I was engaged and then a woman reached out and asked if he was my fiancé. I ended up speaking to her for an hour on the phone. He was on a dating app, he was on a business trip and yeah…'

She added of the deceit: 'I fully back myself. I am emotionally intelligent, smart, intelligent woman. I have every tool in my tool kit to notice red flags. If someone wants to lie to you they will. 

'Wholeheartedly I did not see any red flags. As a red flag the second you go on their phone, the relationship is gone. The trust is gone.'

She went on to explain that her partner was with her when she got the first message about him being on a dating site.

She said: 'He was with me when I got the first message. I thought it was a colleague. It took a while to figure out. My first reaction was shock and I kept saying please tell me first ,I don't want to find out from her. 

'He admitted it and to others as well but I think my reaction was just was 'you have ruined a good thing, this is supposed to be happiest day of my life'.

Michelle flew back to the UK over the weekend a day after revealing she had dumped her fiancé Ben for cheating on her.

This Morning's relationship expert shocked fans after she revealed her engagement had ended in less than 24 hours after discovering her partner of three years had been seeing another woman.

Michelle had been on a solo trip 'on the other side of the world', going on dates while she was away yet has returned now to speak of her heartbreak.

Writing on Instagram, the TV personality said: 'I flew back a day early because I didn't expect all of this to blow up so much.

'I was feeling quite powerless half way across the world with rubbish signal not being able to address all of this so I'm home now and I am choosing to speak to This Morning because they have been my greatest champion from day one.'

In a separate post, Michelle shared a clip of her appearing on This Morning last week despite going through her break-up.

The TV star said that she was not going to let her ex 'drag down the joy' her career brings.

It suggests the break-up took place a few weeks ago with Michelle only choosing to go public with the separation this weekend.

'Last week I went on This Morning and it was the hardest thing I've had to do in a while but it was worth it,' she wrote.

'It reminded me of my power and he's taken enough away from me so I wasn't going to let him drag down the joy my career brings me too.

'Part of me wondered if it was too soon but the timing was too perfect to be a coincidence. The day they asked me to be on was the only morning I was free for three weeks and the only day I wasn't staying with my sister or on my solo trip.'

She went on to thank those who work on This Morning - from the editors to make-up artists - for holding her together.

'Everyone wrapped me in bubble wrap, kept me safe so I could go on air and be my best,' she said.

'Genuinely never felt more a part of the family to be surrounded by so much compassion and love and felt myself for the first time coming up for air.'

Michelle, the author of books including The Selfish Romantic, had previously announced her upcoming nuptials with her boyfriend of almost three years with a photo on social media.

However, she explained that later the same day one of her followers messaged her to reveal he had been cheating on Michelle with her.

Michelle became a motivational coach after living through her own childhood experiences of life-threatening health problems, long stays in hospital and fifteen complex surgeries that left her scarred, both mentally and physically.

She had a brain tumour, a punctured intestine, an obstructed bowel, a cyst in her brain and a condition called hydrocephalus - where fluid builds up in the brain, causing, dangerous pressure that can be fatal if untreated.

Explaining her absence from social media last week, Michelle began: 'I don't know how to make this video so I'm just going to get into it. The last you heard from me I was engaged and I'm not anymore.

'The day I posted that engagement photo is the day I found out he had been cheating on me and one of the women he was cheating on me with actually followed me and that's how I found out.

'She's a lovely woman, and she didn't know, and you've got to love his taste in women. You've got to laugh. We're laughing and crying a lot over here.'

She continued: 'The main thing people always say with cheating is "Did you know?" And obviously not because I said yes to marrying him.

'But also does it matter? I think what I've realised through all of this is if someone wants to actively deceive you they will.

'When it comes to life coaches there's this illusion that
