The truth behind Love Island star Harry's wealth as fans are left shocked at HUGE mansion with a swimming pool
LOVE Island star Harry Cooksley has been a hot topic of conversation since leaving the villa. From his first TikTok to a huge welcome home party, the footballer's fans have been left impressed by his mansion. 6 6 6 Fans of the ITV2 star - who proved controversial for his antics during this year's series - were left convinced the semi pro footballer was "loaded" after he gave an initial glimpse at his family pad. Harry, 30, posted a picture of him with Shakira and his family, he then uploaded another image of the huge swimming pool in the grounds, leading many to believe his family home was quite the pad. But The Sun can now reveal that not all is at it seems, and the huge home actually belongs to his best pal, Harry Hugo. Harry Hugo visited the star during the Meet The Family day in the villa, on this year's series. Harry's pal has shared pictures of his impressive home on his Instagram over the years, from a Christmas dip in the pool to a housewarming in July 2021. A source close to Harry, who chose not to be named, told The Sun: 'Harry Hugo is very well connected and rich and Harry spends a lot of time with him and was doing some trading for him before. 'Harry Hugo has been looking out for Harry C for a while, but Love Island's Harry is far from rich - unless Harry Hugo has him on some insane salary.' Harry hasn't claimed the home is his, but after pictures and a video shared on social media since his return to the UK, fans have assumed it's his family home. Since rising to fame on the hit dating show, speculation has also surrounded Harry's football salary, with fans believing the star is making £7k-a-week in his position as a midfielder for Farnham Town FC. A football expert has shared his thoughts on the impressive figure, saying: 'It looks like the manager was joking when he said that figure. Love Island's Harry Cooksley's ex Emma reveals what he messaged her before he appeared on Love Island 'It's a semi pro club, down in the league system. It's unlikely they'd have a player earning anything close to 7k-a-week.' The Sun has contacted Harry's representative for comment. Previously on TikTok, Harry shared a video where he thanked fans for their support during his time on the show and with his romance with Shakira. However, those watching the short clip were distracted by the background to the clip. Harry filmed himself at what fans thought was his family home in Guildford. The Islander was seen standing on a perfectly manicured lawn. As he moved the camera, in the background a swimming pool could be seen, as well as posh garden furniture. Picking up on what fans thought was a clear sign of his family's wealth, one fan wrote: "Oh Harry you rich rich! I see that garden haha." While another added: "Why is everyone who goes into love island already rich lol" 6 6 6
