Ollie Williams is back together with his ex-girlfriend after quitting ‘Love Island’.
The 23-year-old landowner left the villa on day three, telling his fellow Islanders he still had feelings for former flame Laura Nofer, and now the couple have rekindled their romance.
Speaking to The Sun Online, Ollie recalled: "As soon as I landed in the UK I rang Laura to tell her I was deeply in love with her.
"We were both crying and she was like, ‘Why has it taken it this to realise?’ I asked her straightaway to be my girlfriend again.
"My main worry is that she could be seeing someone else – the longer I left it I felt she could have met another guy. I couldn’t risk losing the love of my life."
And the couple are planning to move in together over the next few months, but Ollie is already thinking about their future together.
He said: "I now realise that Laura is the girl I want to marry. I’m so grateful she has taken me back.
"We’re going to move in together in London over the next few months. I can’t wait to start a life with her."
The pair first dated for 18 months after meeting at Royal Holloway University, but split in September as Laura moved to London whilst Ollie returned to Cornwall.
He then decided to sign up for the ITV2 dating show to meet someone new.
Ollie explained: "I was twiddling my thumbs and my mates suggested I go on ‘Love Island’ – it seemed like fun.
"I told her about the show at new year, I wanted her to hear it from me, she wasn’t happy and had her suspicions as I had been up and down to London for various different promos for the series. The execs said I had to keep it a secret or I would lose my spot."
After coupling up with Paige Turley, he soon found out his heart was with someone else and realised his mistake.
He continued: "I obviously didn’t want to start dating other girls before Love Island, so Paige was the first girl I got to know. She was lovely and easy to talk to, but it didn’t feel right."
