Looking cosy beside Lauren, he continued: "For me it was a big thing about her meeting my family before I made anything official. But I left the villa for Lauren and I do think a lot of her. I feel like we'll be boyfriend and girlfriend soon, no doubt."
An extra spanner in the works is the fact Harrison is based in Miami, and he isn't sure if he wants to return to the UK permanently just yet.
However, on social media today, Harrison left fans scratching their heads when he said the pair were moving in together next week.
He said: 'This is us in Harrods. I was buying a Fenty table for our first house together.

Watch moment Love Island's Harrison takes savage swipe at villa couple and says there's 'no chance' they will win
Meanwhile, on his post-villa media rounds, Harrison stopped by Capital radio and revealed who he wants to win the series.
Giving his top three, Harrison said: "Harry and Helena, D[ejon] and Meg second, and then Shakira and Con. I think that would be my top three, if I could choose."
Lauren agreed and added: "That would be my top three, probably. Maybe change to Yas and Jamie for third, but I don't think that's who I think will win."
Both agreed that they thought Toni and Cach would win.
"I think Yaz and Jamie will be there, up there as well," noted Harrison. "But yeah, H and Helen, D and Meg, yeah, no good. There's no chance at all.
"I would like to see them win, of course, because they're my boys in there."
Lauren added: "Helena and Harry, I do think they get on, but I just think they're not very serious, and I think on the outside, Harry would be a little s**t."
Harrison laughed before adding, "Yeah, fair enough!"
The Love Island final date has been confirmed as August 4 when the remaining contestants will find out who will scoop the £50,000 prize.
