Love Island romance revealed as cast ‘give away' islanders secretly getting close off-screen after brief villa romance
LOVE Island's Ben Holbrough and Alima Gagigo have secretly been growing close off-screen after their brief villa romance. The pair hit it off in the villa and fans were quick to spot sparks flying between the pair during the infamous heart rate challenge. 4 4 And it looks like their chemistry is undeniable on the outside too. Their close pals Shakira Khan and Harrison Solomon dropped a huge clue that they are dating. And now a source has told us: "Alima and Ben have grown close since leaving the villa. "Ben is single after his split from Andrada and Alima is also a single lady. "They're enjoying some harmless flirting and are trying to pick up where they left off. "It's very early stages and it doesn't mean that anything will actually come of this, but they're just getting to know each other better. "Either way they're good friends and have a lovely connection." The Sun reached out to their reps for comment. It comes after Ben posted a video of his Astra App search, which is used to generate a sketch of a user's 'soulmate' based on their birthdate. The sketch had a similar resemblance to Scottish beauty Alima, with fans saying he's hinting that she's his "soulmate". Love Island fans beg bosses to sign bombshell to All Stars after savage attack on ex in final He captioned it: "The Astra App be knowing way too much..." Ben looked coy before adding: "Hard to argue with that". Co-star Shakira then fueled rumours by commenting on the post: "Please collect your boyfriend," and tagged Alima. But it hasn't stopped there. Yesterday, Alima dolled up for a night out at a sushi restaurant. She shared snaps of her dining out at the eatery and a video of her walking across a bridge. Her former villa pal Harrison quickly commented: "Who's recording👀?" His message drove fans wild with many speculating that Ben was filming and out with her last night. One fan wrote: "Alima and Ben are back." A second posted: "Ben and Alima content please." In the villa, viewers were quick to spot Ben and Alima's blossoming connection The Islanders turned up the heat in the villa by stripping off and performing provocative moves in a bid to excite the opposite sex. During the task, one couple's chemistry couldn't be ignored by fans. Ben was most stirred by international business graduate Alima. Eagle-eyed viewers noted the pair having secret chats around the pool. One fan noted: "Alima and Ben could be cute." A second noted: "Alima and Ben seem to have a thing which hasn't been shown until tonight." A third suggested: "Alima and Ben anyone?" After the heart rate challenge, Alima and Ben shared a kiss and began to get to know each other on a deeper level. But Alima's time in the villa was cut short after Conor, with whom she was in a friendship couple, chose to recouple with Billykiss. BOOZY SNOG It comes after Ben enjoyed a kiss with Towie star Dani Imbert behind Andrada Pop's back at a celebrity bash. They were seen whispering in each other's ear, holding hands and then proceeded to enjoy a string of kisses at Broadwick Soho. A source said 'There was instant attraction from the moment they met - they spent two hours kissing at the party it was all very intimate. "It's clearly very much over with Andrada as Dani seemed to be the only thing on his mind." Love Island lad Tommy Bradley also revealed he kissed the same girl on the same night. Outing the cheaters, Ben's now ex Andrada told the Aftersun audience at the finale: 'It was the same girl!' Tommy, who left the villa with Lucy Quinn, held his head in his hands and admitted he acted "disrespectfully", telling Maya how he "messed up" for going behind Lucy's back for the secret snog. The next day it was revealed that Tommy had split from Lucy, who he left the villa with after a shock dumping. Speaking on Aftersun Tommy vowed to stay friends with Lucy. But it sounded like Ben's ex Andrada wasn't keen on keeping in touch. Maya asked what had happened and Andrada revealed: "So we came outside the villa he went exclusive with me, and he was about to meet my family next week. "It took one event where I wasn't there and his head turned." 4 4

Love Island fans beg bosses to sign bombshell to All Stars after savage attack on ex in final

It was at that moment that Andrada got her revenge, telling Maya and millions of viewers at home: "It was with the same girl!" Earlier in the night, Andrada was ready to pounce when she was interviewed alongside Ben by Love Island podcast hosts Amy Hart and Indiyak Polack. During the stream on Instagram and TikTok live, Amy asked Ben to tell her the wildest thing that had happened to him since the show. Ben said it was a shock to be recognised at the airport by fans on the way home, and Andrada started making a face. Indiyah spotted her reaction and said: "You're making facial expressions! What's been the craziest thing?" Andrada replied: "Well I think everyone knows by now that this boy has been a bit bold on the outside to say the least. "Look, we've had a conversation I'm mature I know how things go I'm very understanding, all I've asked is for him to be honest." Asked if they could be friends, Andrada said: "We're on good terms." Her sassy remarks sparked a wave of approval from viewers who want to see Andrada back on their screens asap. Watch as Meg clashes with Casa Amor rival Andrada in frosty recoupling as bombshell reveals close connection with Dejon One said on her latest TikTok video: "Andrada Pop for All Stars 2026!" Another said they were starting a petition for her to return, as one more echoed: "Casa girls are usually forgettable but we never forget Andrada!" And this person begged: "I hope you do Love Island All Stars pleaseeee" It comes after Andrada called out Dejon when axed islanders returned to the villa to dump one couple before the final. She didn't pull any punches when addressing Dejon, who was voted off with Meg as the "least compatible couple" by their co-stars. Andrada said: "I don't feel like this couple has been genuine it's been one sided. I just found it really cringe at some point to go really quickly from exclusive to girlfriend and boyfriend to 'I love you'." Addressing Meg, she raised the moment when viewer saw Meg and Dejon bickering before he quickly changed tact, when appearing to spot a camera. She said: "Can I say something, because I can see you are getting upset and I've actually felt for you babe. "I've watched the episode. And that's what I mean by one sided. "I believe you're going at it with a pure heart and when you want to speak about it Dejon is literally telling you, please come here, because the camera is on, and it baffled every single one of us. "It was like, 'cheese for the camera' it was so cheese to watch and we felt so bad for you." 5 5 Love Island winners - where they are now EVERY year Love Island opens its doors to more sexy Islanders who are hoping for a holiday romance that could turn into more.
