‘We’re going really well’: Harriett finally shares all about being with Ronnie after Love Island

They’re meeting each other’s parents!


Ever since they were mercilessly dumped from the Love Island 2024 villa way before their time, the whole entire nation has been hooked on Harriett Blackmore and Ronnie Vint. No, I’m not exaggerating.

From *that* pic of them emerging like a 00s footballer and his WAG after a cheating scandal (you know the one I mean, it’s now framed in my lounge), to Harriett doing her iconic villa strut on TikTok, it’s been clear as hell we’ve been robbed of two TV icons.

But now Harriett has been on the Saving Grace podcast with TikToker GK Barry, and has shared all about their relationship since the villa. It’s good news you guys – the nation’s sweethearts are going strong and we have potentially a new running for the title of the most iconic reality TV couple right now!

“Things with Ronnie are actually really good,” Harriett said. “We’ve been non-stop speaking since we landed. I’ve seen him quite a lot, I haven’t seen him for a couple of days now. It’s so weird, I haven’t seen him for like two days now and that feels really unnatural because we were together for five weeks.”

She continued: “Yeah we are going really well, I’m seeing him later. Yeah, it’s going really well.” Harriett went on to say Ronnie is “very different” outside the Love Island villa, and is “really reserved” in real life. “That scene, where he was really sticking up for me and came over to me when I was really upset – that’s what he’s like all the time,” she said.

Host Grace then asked Harriett if she and Ronnie have met each other’s families yet, to which Harriett said no, just because of the limited time they’ve had. However, the big meeting of the parents is coming very soon!

“He is coming down to meet my parents soon,” Harriett said, before explaining her best friend and YouTuber Saffron Barker met Ronnie “the other day” over a dinner. When asked if she’s nervous to meet Ronnie’s parents, Harriett admitted it’s “a bit scary” but said she’s confident and a big talker, so isn’t too worried.

They’re making big moves!
