Love Island’s Ronnie looks loved up with Harriett as he celebrates his birthday with their co-stars
LOVE Island star Ronnie Vint looked all loved up with Harriett Blackmore as the pair celebrated his birthday.
The semi professional footballer, 28 – who was booted out of the ITV2 villa alongside the Brighton dancer, 24 – hit the streets of London for his special day.
Ronnie gave fans a glimpse of his balloon-filled hotel room in the UK capital before heading out with a slew of famous faces.
This included Harriett – who looked sensational in a long-sleeve busty nude crop top and matching skirt.
Se finished off her elegant look with gold strappy high heels.
Harriett – who was involved in a love triangle with Ronnie and Jess White 25, while in Love Island‘s Mallorca compound – styled her brunette hair into loose waves and snuggled up to her man as they arrived at their party venue hand-in-hand.
When inside celeb hotspot Sheesh Mayfair, they were joined by a handful of the 2024 Love Island cast including Samantha Kenny and lovebirds Wil Anderson and Uma Jammeh.
While inside, Ronnie and Harriett again showed their bond as they posed for a picture at the dinner table.
She was seen placing a tender hand on his thigh as they cuddled up.
In another snap at the swanky venue – which has an original eatery in Chigwell, Essex – they were seen sitting next to each other.
Last month, fans were left devastated when the duo were dumped from the villa.
It came after a public vote, with one fan moaning at the time on X: “OMG I CANT BELIEVE HARRIET HAS GONE.”
Fans were quick to brand show bosses “evil” for the cruel twist – yet the duo said they were happy to be leaving with each other.
FIRM FUTURE?
Ronnie opened up on his future with Harriett after touching down from Mallorca.
When asked how he feels about leaving with Harriett in his exit interview, he said: “I’m happy. It was a bumpy start with all my triangles.
Love Island's biggest Ofcom complaints
Love Island has been hit with thousands of complaints over the years - here are the most moaned about moments
Dani’s tears: in 2018, Ofcom received 2,644 complaints when Dani Dyer was left in floods of tears over Jack Fincham during the Casa Amor. Viewers felt the show had been manipulated to make it appear Jack was going to cheat, when in fact he wasn’t. And poor Dani didn’t learn the truth for days.
Maura fury: Although she later won over the public, Maura Higgins got off to a bad start in 2019. After arriving as a bombshell, she made a beeline for Tommy Fury – who was coupled up with Molly-Mae Hague – and tried to kiss him while straddling him on a daybed. 709 people accused her actions as ‘sexual harassment’.
Faye explodes: The 2021 series of Love Island remains the most complained series about yet. 4,330 complaints were made to Ofcom after Faye Winter received a postcard from Casa Amor, which appeared to show her fella Teddy Soares kissing a bombshell. But a whopping 24,763 complaints flooded in when Faye came face-to-face with Teddy again. Faye’s shocking outburst even sparked a reaction from male domestic abuse charity, ManKind Inititive, who branded her ‘unacceptable’.
Bish bash: The following year, the fallout from Movie Night sparked 3,617 Ofcom complaints. Fans of the show were horrified by Luca Bish’s harsh reaction when Gemma Owen was shown speaking to bombshell Billy Brown.
Muggy Mitch: Almost 1,000 Ofcom complaints flooded in last year in the final week of Love Island. Viewers were unimpressed with Mitchel Taylor’s treatment of Abi Moores and felt he was ‘targeting’ her. Fans even urged Love Island bosses to check on Abi’s ‘mental health and welfare’.
“But everything came full circle and I felt like that last week we’ve [Harriett and I] been really good.
“We had a lovely date and we’ve been getting to know each other more and spending more time together.
“At the end of the day I’ve gone there to find someone and I’ve come out with Harriett, wherever that goes, who knows.
“But it was really nice with her in there.”
Jess – who has also now been given the boot – previously branded Ronnie “desperate” over their love triangle with Harriett.
Yet the pair seem to be going strong – and were spotted cuddling as they re-adjusted to life in the real world.
Harriett also broke her silence on their exit
“Maybe just the journey it took for us to get there.
“Obviously we had our date and re-coupled and stuff. But he was getting himself involved in all of these triangles!”
She then said: “It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and anyone would be silly to turn it down.
“Regardless of whether I left now or in the final, I had the most amazing experience and done things I wouldn’t necessarily get to do, so I’d definitely tell someone to go for it.”
arriett’s eviction came after a tough time for the star.
She had burst into tears after Ciaran took a wild swipe at her during a game of Never Had I Ever, in which fans branded the Welshman “evil.”
