Georgia Steel bedded Sam Bird ‘as soon as’ they left Love Island

Love Island’s Georgia Steel bedded Sam Bird "as soon as" the couple left the villa.
The pair quit the show after realising they couldn’t be apart, despite initially agreeing to break up to keep their places in the famous abode, and now they’ve returned to the UK from Majorca, they are living together and have taken their relationship to the next level.
Georgia said: "Sam I had sex as soon as we came out the villa in Majorca. It was natural. We’re now living with my friend in South London, she loves it. We spend all our time together.
"Night times were weird at first with all the kissing noises, but you soon get used to the environment. Couples are real so they’re going to do stuff when they get into bed. I had to accept it."
The 20-year-old drama student admitted she and fellow contestant Dani Dyer, 22 did not want to disrespect their families and is proud she went without having sex on screen with the 25-year-old personal trainer.
She said: "I know Dani hasn’t had sex as we spoke about it a lot. She had a similar view as me on the matter, we both thought about our lives after the villa. We had a similar upbringing. She didn’t want to upset her family."
The aspiring actress clashed with Megan Barton Hanson, 24, and Ellie Brown, 20, while in the villa and Georgia revealed that her mum found those parts of her ‘Love Island’ journey "really difficult" to watch.
She added to The Sun newspaper: "Face-to-face we got on, but behind my back she had a different opinion. It was never my intention to make her feel insecure and it’s a shame that she feels that way. What Ellie said was awful. It sets a terrible example to use that language. I would be very embarrassed.
"My mum found that really difficult, it was hard for her because we’re so close. She was very upset seeing me go through tough times. It was hard with the journey I went on – I just wanted my mum to tell me everything was going to be OK."
The ‘Love Island’ final airs tonight (30.07.18) at 9pm on ITV2.
