It’s just been revealed that Love Island 2024 cast member Ronnie Vint previously knew new bombshell Matilda – but she’s just one of many Islanders he knew before getting on the show.

During the Euros four years ago, the pair of them met at Ballie Ballerson, and kissed!

Ronnie should know exactly how to play it in the villa, because he dated 2017 winner Amber Davies. A source said: “Ronnie and Amber enjoyed getting to know each other but things were not meant to be.” Asked if he had dated a celebrity, he told The Sun on Sunday: “Yeah a couple but they are both in relationships now.”

Ronnie is also linked to Love Island 2024 bombshell Matilda
