Ella can't eat seafood, which is problematic when it comes to her career. "I have a stomach condition where I can't eat certain foods, which is really convenient when you get cast as a lead in a food show," she told Decider. "There was one oyster scene that was the most important scene in the whole season. They're like, 'You have to eat an oyster.' I was like 'If I eat an oyster, I'm taking two weeks off work because I will be so sick.'"
While Ella hasn't revealed any details about her approach to exercise, she can often be found engaging in outdoor activities. Hiking in the mountains, biking, and walking on the beach are a few of her favorite activities.
Purnell is also a big fan of roller skating. "A chilled morning skate with the eagles in the mountains of Vancouver Island // lately I've been focusing on flow; just getting smoother with those transitions and filler moves like disco spins and dips. Still struggling to balance with that heal toe spin at the end but getting better at coming out of them without landing on my ass!" she captioned a recent video of herself skating around.
Ella keeps herself mentally healthy by treating her anxiety and depression. "I have anxiety and have had depression in the past," she told the Evening Standard. "When I was 15 or 16 I had a bad experience at school — some issues with other classmates and somebody I was seeing, we don't need to go into it. I started self-harming and did that for a long time until my mum caught me and I started to learn about it [mental health]." She hopes that by discussing her experiences, it will help people understand issues surrounding self-harm. "Self-harm is not about attention — I hid [my scars] for six months, wore long T-shirts, covered them up with make-up. It's about punishing yourself, for people who dislike themselves or suffer from insecurity or self-doubt," she continued. "I still have the scars and it's something that I did that I will always regret: it hurt a lot of people around me and it's on my body forever."
One way that Ella promotes self-care is by reading. "With a good book," she responded when asked by Conde Nast Traveler about her go-to chill out activity. "I'm reading Raven Black by Ann Cleeves right now, and I think I just predicted the ending. Although I do quite often predict them wrong, so I'll keep reading.'
