Love Islander ‘hard launches new girlfriend' on TikTok after hooking up on rival show – but fans slam ‘showmance'
ALL IT SEEMS? Love Islander 'hard launches new girlfriend' on TikTok after hooking up on rival show – but fans slam 'showmance' LOVE Island star Scott van der Sluis has fans convinced he's got a new girlfriend after another reality show stint – despite walking off from her on screen. The Welsh reality star has been keeping himself busy with a string of dating shows across the years, with the latest being Netflix's Perfect Match. 5 Scott and Juliette looked close as they danced together for a TikTok 5 The pair sparked a connection on Perfect Match – but their romance soon collapsed Advertisement 5 Despite ending the show on a bad note, the pair not look extremely close The series – which puts former reality stars into a house to compete in challenges and spark romantic connections with each other – saw Scott form a connection with Siesta Key's Juliette Porter, going on dates together and heavily flirting. However, their romance spectacularly blew up when Love Island USA's Carrington Rodriguez told him she had slated their connection to him, saying Scott was "too immature" for her. Rather than confront her, Scott and Carrington opted to immediately walk off the show together – in the process ensuring Juliette would be axed from the show as well, as you can only remain in the house if you're in a couple. Advertisement However, nearly a year after the show was filmed, it seems the pair have healed their connection, performing a TikTok together on Juliette's socials. Surrounded by other members of the Perfect Match cast, including Carrington, the duo were seen passionately lipsyncing to Beyoncé's Tyrant to each other outside a bar. With Juliette having a drink in her hand, she at one point pulls Scott's head to her chest, and he responds by grabbing her face, seemingly trying to pull in for a kiss she pulls away from. Although the TikTok was posted five days before the finale – which saw their dramatic fallout – fans are unconvinced that they're now a couple. Advertisement "after watching the finale and now seeing this, i'm just laughing so hard," wrote one. "Scott will do anything for attention," wrote a second, while a third said: "You deserve each other and I mean that in the worst way possible." However others thought they were "made to be a couple", with one noting: "They have to be dating as he's had a style upgrade". Love Island fans 'work out' show star is 'in talks for The Traitors series 3' after he accidentally drops massive clue "Please, I need them together," added a third. Scott is yet to confirm any new romance since the end of Perfect Match, which ended last week. Advertisement However, he has announced that he's "retiring" from dating shows after appearing on Love Island, Love Island USA, Love Island Games and now Perfect Match. Celebrating the finale, he wrote on Instagram: "Anywaysss after 4 TV shows, trips to Fiji, Mallorca and Mexico, and 2 years of incredible memories, it's finally time to say SCOTTISHA IS RETIRED. "Peace out people, hope you all enjoyed the journey. ✌️" 5 Their Perfect Match romance ended when Juliette said Scott was immature 5 Scott has revealed he is now 'retired' from reality dating shows
