Love Island Marcel's ex wife gets matching tattoo with new boyfriend two years after cheating row and All Stars
LOVE Island Marcel's ex wife gets matching tattoo with new boyfriend two years after 'cheating' scandal. Rebecca Vieira made headlines following her messy split from Marcel, which led to a divorce just before of his appearance on Love Island: All Stars. 8 Rebecca Vieira made headlines following her messy split from Marcel Somerville Credit: Refer to Caption 8 Marcel's ex wife gets matching tattoo with new boyfriend two years after 'cheating' scandal Credit: Instagram/rebeccavieirax 8 Rebecca took to her Instagram stories to post pics of her stay at a luxury lodge Credit: Instagram/rebeccavieirax 8 Rebecca Vieira seems all loved up with her new beau Credit: Instagram/rebeccavieirax 8 The influencer also shared a surprise gift she was brought which included a pair of stunning high heels Credit: Instagram/rebeccavieirax Now the mom-of-one has moved on with a mystery new man sharing pics of the pairs matching tattoos online. Rebecca took to her Instagram stories to post pics of her stay at a luxury lodge taking snaps of a bouquet of flowers, hot tub and a bed with flower petals. She went on to upload two stories of her and her new beau's arms side by side with matching tattoos on their ring fingers. The brunette beauty captioned the post: 'Dream.' The influencer also shared a surprise gift she was brought which included a pair of stunning high heels, to which she penned: " The most perfect surprise (heart emoji)." Rebecca has carved out her own path as a social media star. She's especially popular on Instagram, where she shares lifestyle, fashion, family, and travel content and has over 600,000 followers. Plus, her YouTube channel, Life With MR, gives fans an inside look at her goings-on through vlogs about family adventures, daily moments, and behind-the-scenes snippets. From infidelity rumours to Marcel's return to the Love Island villa this year, Rebecca has faced her fair share of ups and downs in the public eye. The former Blazin Squad member, 39, walked out on wife Rebecca when she was allegedly caught 'cheating' on him with a famous US rapper. Awkward moment Olivia Hawkins looks furious at show co-star in painfully tense All Stars final - and it's NOT Grace or Harriett The couple share a son, Roman, who they welcomed back in 2021 and a little over a year later they tied the knot. Things were going well for the couple until January 2024 when Rebecca was caught being 'unfaithful' to the reality TV star with rapper Slim Jxmmi. The mother of Slim's child, KD, had claimed that Rebecca had sent "intimate messages" to her child's father. KD, took to her social media platforms to share what she had uncovered – even tagging Rebecca and Marcel in the posts for them to see. A source at the time, told The Mirror: "Marcel is absolutely devastated. "Rebecca was his life and he'd changed so many things about his lifestyle to make her happy. "Everything he did, everything he worked for was for his wife and his son. "The poor guy feels like he's in a nightmare and he keeps hoping he'll wake up.' In March 2024, Rebecca made headlines when she publicly apologised for what she called a 'huge mistake' and admitted to 'foolish' actions after the cheating allegations surfaced. The exact timing of their split remains a mystery, but fans were surprised to hear that Marcel was heading back into the villa, since he was still legally married to Rebecca. It turned out that the pair were in the process of divorcing. 8 Marcel walked out on wife Rebecca when she was allegedly caught 'cheating' on him Credit: Rex 8 The couple share a son, Roman, who they welcomed back in 2021 Credit: Instagram

Love Island finalist is ‘producer plant' claim fans after spotting FIVE clues
LOVE Island fans are convinced one show star is a "producer plant" just hours before the show final. They have claimed the ITV2 show hunk - who is battling it out for the £50k cash prize in tonight's final - "feels off" with a series of behaviour traits. 6 Love Island fans are convinced one finalist is a producer plant Credit: ITV 6 Barnsley lad Ty Isherwood will battle it out for the £50K cash prize tonight Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 6 Viewers have speculated 'something is off' with his partnership with Angel Credit: Eroteme Now Barnsley-born Ty Isherwood has been put under the spotlight by a variety of eagle-eyed Love Island fans. The 23-year-old entered proceedings at the Casa Amor stage and coupled up with Shakira, with the pair then being voted the most compatible by the public. Yet a few days later, after briefly being coupled up with Lauren, he found a spark with Angel when she ranked him as her number one boy. Despite the duo appearing to go from strength to strength, a portion of fans are hugely sceptical about his place on the show. One took to Reddit to outline their view that the site engineer has been placed in the villa by show bosses and said: "Okay, hear me out. I genuinely think Ty might be a producer plant. "Just my POV, but there are too many things that feel off." They then outlined five reasons why this may be the case and argued: "Starting from Casa — he didn't seem to care much whether he ended up with Helena or Shakira. (Yes, maybe he just wanted to secure a spot, but the indifference felt too flat.). "When Shakira and Ty did the voting to dump a couple he just agreed with whatever Shakira said. "Then when Shakira dumped him for Conor, there was zero reaction. He was just suddenly was okay with Lauren." For the fourth reason, they continued: "Then, just as he's settling with Lauren, boom — Angel enters, and suddenly he dumps Lauren like a formality." Love Island's Ty kisses with his eyes open They then wrapped their argument and put: "And through all of this, no real emotional depth, no strong connections, and almost no air time. "It honestly seems like he's just going with whatever the producers lay out for him. He hasn't actively pursued anyone. No spark, no persuasion — just vibes and scripted transitions. "I feel like they brought in Angel mostly for Harry — and to stir things up. Ty would have been so cool to re-couple with Helena, especially since they didn't during Casa. Anyone else feel like something's off?" Fans were quick to respond to the wild claim. Another replied: "He's just not as attention seeking as other guys. All of them and none of them are producer plants. They are all told what to do by producers." A third then wrote: "I mean this would align with the fact Ty was on the dry run (where he both met and slept with Lauren before the show). "You definitely could be going somewhere with this but I'm unsure how much manipulation the producers can realistically do." COUPLE DOUBT The claims came after fans already had doubts about how committed Angel was to Ty. Eyebrows were raised as Ty asked Angel if they could 'go exclusive' – essentially making them boyfriend/girlfriend in all but name – yet her reaction left viewers believing there's doubt in place for Angel. Throw in their differing lifestyles, and some are thinking that they could already be on the way out. A Reddit poster explained: 'Hear me out. Angel is a fairly big Instagram influencer, who if you look at her instagram seems to be all about the boujee life. 'Her entire feed is her hanging with super stunning models all with huge followings on yachts in Spain, ski trips in the French Alps, constant trips to Dubai and seems to be living a pretty expensive glamorous life.' 'Ty is a sweetheart but does seem just like a genuine working class guy from a normal background,' they added. 'Absolutely nothing wrong with that, I just find it hard to believe this is the type of guy Angel is genuinely interested in with the lifestyle she projects on Instagram.' Other fans are convinced the duo had a connection before the show even started, while others were left confused by Ty's kissing technique. The remaining couples still in the villa and battling it out in the final are: Ty and Angel, Toni and Cach, Shakira and Harry, and Yasmin and Jamie.

Ex On The Beach stars reveal they're ENGAGED after four kids and cheating scandal – and the wedding is just weeks away
EX On The Beach star Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson have revealed they have finally got engaged - and the wedding isn't far off. Helen, 30, and Chet, 35, who shot to fame on the MTV show in 2016, are set to get hitched after being together for ten years and going through a cheating scandal. 6 Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson have revealed they are getting married Credit: Instagram 6 The couple revealed they will wed very soon Credit: Instagram 6 The pair shot to fame on Ex on the Beach in 2016 Credit: MTV 6 The couple already have three children, Ocean, Elvis and Peach before welcoming a fourth in June Credit: Instagram The couple - who share four children - announced the news with a video. They captioned it with: "Today is our 10 year anniversary… & the beginning of something even more beautiful. "In a couple of weeks we are saying 'I do". "We can't wait for this next chapter…." Addressing fans in the video they revealed how it was Helen who popped the question. Chet said: "I was at the gym, and I get this phone call and she's like. 'Do you want to get married?' and I'm like, 'What do you mean do you want to get married?'" Helen added: "If anyone knows me, I always said 10 years and I'll decide if I want to get married or not." BABY JOY This latest happy news comes just weeks after the couple welcomed their fourth child, Honey, in June. They already have kids Ocean, Elvis, and Peach, but expanded their brood by one more. Announcing the news, Chet said: "She has done it again… the strongest, most beautiful woman I know just brought our fourth baby into the world. Ex On The Beach star reveals she's pregnant with fourth baby - two years after shock split with co-star and cheating claims "Watching you become a mother all over again has left me in complete awe. "You are a super mum & our family is whole because of you –and I couldn't be more proud or more in love. I love you so much." CHEATING SCANDAL Meanwhile, Helen and Chet previously shocked fans by announcing their split after eight years together. In 2023, Helen posted an explosive statement on Instagram accusing Chet of cheating, which he denied. They got back together shortly after, and during a Q&A on Instagram, one follower asked: "Are you and Chet back together?" 6 The couple have been together for ten years and went through a cheating scandal Credit: Instagram Helen said: "So this question gets asked a lot so I would only like to address this once. "I jumped the gun and put a statement without even reading between the lines. "Chet always denied the allegation and later down the line cleared his name. "Putting a statement out there was a hasty decision on my behalf, because the evidence I had was nil and void and led to me accusing Chet of something he actually didn't do. "I don't know why I let these trolls get to me and try and ruin my relationship. "Chet an I are working hard to get back on track for the sake of us as a couple and out family, and this is the last time I will speak on this matter." Chet and Helen got back together on series four of Ex On The Beach, which aired in 2016.
