A rundown of all the Love Islanders you forgot had rogue relationships with reality TV stars
Jonny Mitchell and Stephanie Pratt’s fling feels like a lifetime ago
The whole premise of Love Island is to meet the love of your life, couple up and live happily ever after. But the success rate of that is less than ideal. Most often, a load of wannabe influencers get dumped on an island, locked in a villa for six weeks and we watch them make up drama and stir the pot, only to get with another reality TV personality as soon as they get back on UK soil. Here are all the Love Islanders who got into relationships with reality TV stars.
Chyna Mills and Neil Jones

Ex-Islander Chyna and Strictly Come Dancing star Neil Jones got together after her bombshell appearance on the show back in 2022. Neil sent her a message on Instagram and they met for the first time at the Reality TV Awards. It was obvious that they were going to get together when they were spotted at the Chelsea after party, holding hands and hitting it off. They left together and the rest is history, with the pair being engaged, sharing three dogs and welcoming their first daughter, Havana, together in October last year.
Eyal Booker and Delilah Hamlin
Eyal left a legacy in the Love Island sphere as a spiritual lover, and went on to date the daughter of Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin back in 2019. Eyal and Delilah were sickly sweet together and dated for two years before going their separate ways.
Liv Bentley and Josh Ritchie
Made In Chelsea royal Liv Bentley was previously involved with two time Love Island alumni, after recently gracing us with lis lovely presence on Love Island: All Stars. The pair met whilst both on Celebs Go Dating and were spotted sharing a cheeky kiss a few years ago and were papped frolicking around together, but Liv has since denied that things went any further. Liv described their smooch as “a friendly kiss one night”. Whatever you say.
Laura Crane and Tristan Phipps
Love Island 2018 star, Laura, got with MIC veteran Tristan Phipps back in 2018 after calling it quits with Jack Fowler from the show. They stayed together for nine months, before announcing their split the next summer. At the time, a source told The Sun: “Laura and Tristan decided to call it day after their trip to Bali. They just felt it wasn’t right for both of them at the moment. It was completely mutual and they are still very amicable. They haven’t ruled out giving it another go in the future, but for now it’s very much over.”
Ella Barnes and JJ Slater
Not that I’m surprised, but MAFS groom JJ Slater was in a three year relationship with ex-Islander Ella Barnes. It was pretty on again/off again, but lasted three WHOLE years. Who has this guy not been with?
Jonny Mitchell and Stephanie Pratt
Jonny was on Love Island back in 2017, when it was basically an entirely different show: The whole hour was basically the Islanders smoking, swearing and getting frisky under the sheets. Despite not finding love from the show, Jonny got with MIC star and all round TV personality, Stephanie Pratt and they dated for three months in 2017 but things ended after cheating rumours broke their romance down.
