Celebs Go Dating’s Ulrika Jonsson breaks down in tears as she gets friendzoned by toyboy after third date
ULRIKA Jonsson broke down in tears this evening as she ended up getting friendzoned on Celebs Go Dating.
The 54-year-old was about to ask hunky Jad, 31, to come on a mini break with her after they enjoyed three dates together, but he shut her down, saying there “wasn’t a spark”.
He asked her: “Do you feel like something is missing?”
Looking really awkward, the mum-of-four said: “Like what?”
He replied: “Just a little spark between us, like I’m being honest. We’ve got along great as friends, but I feel like we’ve become good friends and I like it where it is.”
Ulrika took the news on the chin, but as soon as her best friend arrived she became overcome with emotion.
She told her pal: “I one hundred percent would have taken him on the mini break. I’m not going to pretend otherwise.”
And as her bestie gave her a pep talk she broke down in tears, leaving those watching at home gutted for her.
One person wrote: “Ulrika friendzoned, oh no. #CelebsGoDating .”

A second added: “Oh no. Poor Ulrika. #CelebsGoDating.”
While a third commented: “Ulrika really liked him, sad times #CelebsGoDating.”
And a fourth tweeted: “I’m devastated for ulrika #CelebsGoDating.”
Earlier this year, Ulrika revealed that she is keen to settle down and find love after revealing she was “done with one-night stands”.
“I was ready to mingle,” she wrote in her column in The Sun. “I had a newfound freedom and, with my children being a bit older, a sense of independence. It energised me and catapulted me into a world of meeting, seeing, dating and having sex.
“I was not looking for a relationship. When you’ve been in one for a lengthy period, you crave space, time on your own, lack of commitment, freedom, a life devoid of boundaries and restrictions. An opportunity to breathe and spread your wings.
“What I’ve concluded is that sex and fun is . . . fun. It’s liberating, exciting and confidence-boosting.
“But it is not necessarily where I’m heading next year. I’m largely done with one-offs and rendezvous of brevity. I want more.”
