Sammy wrote: "Half of me, half of you - due January 2026."

Sammy may not have found love in the villa but she did finally meet The One shortly after leaving the show.
She regularly shared loved-up snaps of her and Jamie on Instagram.
The pair are often seen travelling and enjoying their sunkissed life in Dubai.
In 2023, Sammy hit out at Love Island bosses for " editing" her out of the series.
At the time, Sammy spilled the beans during an Instagram Q&A.
One fan asked if anything surprised her about being in the villa.
She revealed: "Omg yes! Just how highly produced and edited the show is.
"I mean I wasn't naive going in, I'm a switched on girl.
"I knew this was the case but I guess you never fully understand until you see yourself. Unfortunately I can't talk about this until my contract ends after June.
"Just take everything with a pinch of salt when watching."
While another fan asked: "Why were the Casa girls so nasty about the OG girls?"
Sammy hit back at being labelled "mean" and said: "No one was nasty.
"In fact we all spoke highly about the OG girls but it was all edited out so we came across like mean girls."
Sammy was dumped from the island during the famous Casa Amor recoupling.
She was sent packing along with Layla, Lydia, Cynthia and Lynda.

Ibiza Final Boss 'signs five-figure deal with brand' after getting management

Jack Kay, better known as the Ibiza Final Boss, signed with a management agency recently and he's now said to have signed a deal with a fashion brand after going viral Social media star Jack Kay, who is better known as the Ibiza Final Boss, is said to have signed a five-figure deal with a high-profile brand in the UK this week. He's reportedly agreed to collaborate with fashion retailer boohooMAN. ‌ Jack, 26, rose to fame just weeks ago when footage of him dancing in Ibiza went viral on social media, with him attracting attention over his distinctive appearance, which includes a bowl haircut. He's since signed to a management agency. ‌ It's now been reported that Jack has signed a deal with fashion retailer boohooMAN. The brand have previously collaborated with celebrities like footballer Kyle Walker, Love Island 's Toby Aromolaran and singer Burna Boy. ‌ According to the Daily Mail, Jack has now signed a five-figure deal with boohooMAN. Sources told the outlet that he was at the brand's headquarters in Manchester this morning to sign the contract for the collaboration. Jack was spotted in the city earlier, with him seen wearing a black t-shirt, black shorts and white trainers. One photo published by the Daily Mail shows him posing with a boohooMAN t-shirt that had 'IBIZA FINAL BOSS' on the back. The news comes after it was announced that Jack had signed with Neon Management. Other clients of the management agency include TOWIE 's Joey Essex, Gogglebox 's Stephen Webb and Love Island stars like Ronnie Vint. A source previously teased to the Sun that Jack would take advantage of opportunities after signing with Neon Management. They told the outlet that the agency has been "inundated" with requests related to him already. The source said: "Signing up with the agency was a no-brainer given their past success and they've been inundated with requests for him already. It all really blew up in a matter of hours so from TV shows to podcasts - the sky's the limit." ‌ There's been speculation over potential opportunities for his career since his rise to fame on social media. Jack has already released music, with a track titled Ibiza Final Boss, a collaboration with Carnao Beats, released last week. Since the footage of him went viral, Jack has been referenced by several brands in content. Greggs, for example, shared a photo of gingerbread that resembled his appearance, writing in their post on X: "Gingerbread Man final boss." ‌ Jack once said that it had been "a lot" for him to take in after going viral whilst on the island of Ibiza recently. As previously reported, in the same post on social media, he assured fans that he's "just a normal person" from Newcastle. He wrote: "Appreciate all the love and messages off everyone. I will get back to everyone quick as I can it's just a lot for me to take in at the moment. I am just a normal person from Newcastle it's crazy stay locked in got some big news coming."

Love Island: The Reason Ofcom Dismissed More Than 14,000 Complaints This Series

The most recent season of Love Island received the highest number Ofcom complaints in four years with many alleging that bullying, abusive behaviour and misogyny was taking place on the show. Despite receiving 14,154 complaints, a spokesperson for Ofcom has announced that they will not be further investigating the latest series. They made a similar call in 2022 after receiving 7,500 complaints about misogyny and bullying. According to the regulator, the most controversial episode aired on 24 July, which prompted 3,547 complaints about alleged bullying against Shakira Khan. Shakira ended up finishing in second place with her partner Harry Cooksley while her best friend Toni Laites won the show with her partner Cach Mercer. Yas Pettett and Jamie Rhodes finished in third. The communications regulator has decided not to open a formal investigation because the negative behaviour 'was not shown in a positive light', and was in line with what viewers have come to expect from the ITV dating show. 'We carefully assessed the complaints we received about this series of Love Island, ' the spokesperson explained. 'We recognise that emotionally charged or confrontational scenes can upset some viewers. But, in our view, negative behaviour in the villa was not shown in a positive light, and contestants were seen supporting or apologising to each other.' 'We also took into account that the format of this reality show is well-established, and viewers would expect to see highs and lows as relationships and friendships are tested.' The total number of complaints is significantly higher than last year when there were 3,500, and the highest since summer 2021 when there were 36,000 complaints filed. According to the statement, a large proportion of complaints this year were regarding allegations of racism towards Shakira. A spokesperson for ITV responded to say: 'We would take any suggestion that any editorial decisions are made based on race very seriously indeed and would refute this in the strongest possible terms.' Other complaints were about Dejon Noel-Williams' behaviour towards his girlfriend Megan Moore, the misogyny allegations leveraged at contestants such as Harrison Solomon, and the return of Megan Forte Clarke after she was dumped from the villa. ITV's terms say producers have the discretion to 'reintroduce an Islander seen in earlier stages of the competition who was previously evicted'. The channel also says participants get training in advance about 'mutually respectful behaviour in relationships' and 'behaviour patterns associated with controlling and coercive behaviour'. They also get 'comprehensive psychological support' and an aftercare package including 'support to all islanders following their participation on the show', according to a spokesperson for ITV.

The 31-year-old star announced the birth of her baby daughter, Siena Grace, yesterday – her second child with husband Alex Bowen.

A source told Daily Mail: "Olivia could have died during birth if it wasn't for the incredible team at her local hospital. "She lost nearly three litres of blood needing an urgent blood transfusion and emergency c-section." Thankfully, the procedure was successful, with baby Siena born safely and Olivia now recovering form the birth. On Monday, the couple shared a first look at the tot with pictures online – including shots of their protective three-year-old son Abel kissing baby Siena's head. Olivia and Alex first met on Love Island in 2016, coming second place to Cara De la Hoyde and Nathan Massey. They married in 2018, and welcomed their baby boy Abel in June 2022. The couple announced they were expecting their second child at the beginning of this year with a sweet video showing the positive pregnancy test and scans as they celebrated Christmas. Just last month Olivia showed off her blossoming bump at the Rehab hair event, alongside Stacey Solomon and Sam Thompson. Olivia exclusively told The Sun about her pregnancy: "It's different, it's a lot harder because I had a three-year-old to look after at the same time, before all I had to worry about was myself, so it's very different. Love Island's Olivia Bowen breaks down in tears and says she was 'floored' after losing twin baby in heartbreaking miscarriage "It's really rewarding and so lovely to see how excited Abel is to have a baby sister, he always talks about it. "Alex is doing good, he's always wanted a little girl, so he's really happy about that - we're just both really but it's just hard work. "We already have a name for her. I liked Hattie, but Alex did not. We really liked Darcy. But we have picked one - I got Alex a Father's Day present with the name and there's a few reasons why we've picked it." In August this year, it was announced Olivia and Alex had landed their own ITV reality show, called Olivia and Alex: Parenthood. The series is set to follow the pair as they grow their family and expected the arrival of baby Siena. It is not known if the birth, or the complications surrounding it, will be featured in the series. 6 The pair also announced the baby's name in a series of personal photos Credit: oliviadbowen/Instagram 6 Olivia and Alex met on Love Island back in 2016 Credit: Rex
