Love Island's Angel was 'dating The Only Way Is Essex's Dan Edgar' weeks before show
Angelique 'Angel' Swift may be a new face in reality television, but she is no stranger to reality stars - having previously enjoyed dates with Towie star Dan Edgar A new Love Island bombshell enjoyed secret dates with a cast member of The Only Way Is Essex before entering the villa. Angelique 'Angel' Swift became one of the new entrants to ITV's long-running dating show this week. The 26-year-old blonde bombshell immediately turned heads when she entered the villa and seemed to hit it off with the 2025 contestants. However, it seems Angel may be shielding a damaged heart, as it has been claimed she had been entering a romance with a reality star before she jetted to Majorca. A report has revealed that Angel had struck up the beginnings of a romance with Dan Edgar - who reality show fans will recognise from Towie. The 35-year-old reality star has appeared on the ITVBe series since 2015 and who has famously previously dated Towie co-star Ella Rae Wise. Dan and Ella began dating in early 2024 but broke up at the beginning of this year. A heartbroken Ella was subsequently seen on the reality series Celebrity Big Brother. But in recent months, Dan and Angel reportedly got close. However, it seems the romance did not pan out as Angel is now starring on Love Island and looking for a romance. A friend of the dating show star told The Sun:"They were together during one of the May bank holidays in Marbella and spent time hanging out. They were seen at various events, it was casual dating but they had fun together." Conversely, a friend of Dan told the outlet: "It was just one date really, and it was after he split from Ella. Dan was very much single at the time." The Mirror has contacted representatives of Dan and Love Island for comment. Angel drew attention when she made her entry to the villa towards the end of this week - with a possible love triangle emerging. Her entrance resulted in a cheeky conversation with 30-year-old Harry Cooksley, who is coupled up with Helena Ford. Harry and Helena, 29, had already endured various on-and-off-again recouplings - and Angel's arrival looks set to provoke further upset. The new arrival wasted no time getting her graft on and pulled Harry for a chat to see how he's feeling about his current couple. And it didn't take long for their exchanges to turn saucy. Harry made intense eye contact when talking to her about mornings, saying: 'You like the mornings, do you? What about…?" He then stared at her intensely and hinted at a more sexual subject. Harry went on to say: "Cause I'm into that. Ends up with a little spooning.' Angel responded by telling him that she does "like being a little spoon". Harry then asked the bombshell if she was easily attracted to new men she meets. She then confessed: "When I sleep with someone, I get feelings. So I can't sleep with them because I'm just like, 'Ah, I'm in love.'' In a flirtatious response, Harry then joked: 'We might have to hold off on that spoon in the morning then.' And as the conversation drew to a close Angel asked if the 30-year-old was ready to go and join the rest of the villa. But then Harry commented: "I want to stay here with you.' Fans were left wondering how his romance with Helena would advance. Love Island continues on Sunday night at 9pm via ITV2 and ITVX.
