A FORMER Love Island star has shut down hopes of her returning to the villa by sharing loved-up vids of her new boyfriend.
Mal Nicol, who appeared on last year’s series of the ITV2 favourite, has been posting pics her new beau on Instagram.
The comedian was seen cuddling up to her man on a train in one video, with him pulling her in for a kiss as she started giggling.
Across the video was the text: “The theory of meeting someone twice is the reason why we are together.”
She added in the caption: “He literally moved to Dubai!!!”
Mal hard-launched Harvey Thrower as her boyfriend back in March, with a hilarious clip while on holiday together in the Alps.
The star was seen dancing before Harvey literally sweeps her off her feet, knocking her out of the frame.
Since then they have been sharing their holiday pics, work out sessions and date nights together.
Unlike Mal, Harvey keeps himself largely off social media, only having three pictures on his Instagram account.
It’s believed Harvey is an investment banker, who spent time working in Dubai before returning to the UK.
Before going public with her romance, Mal had teased she would be up for returning to the ITV2 villa as an All Star.
When she didn’t show up on the series, fans hoped she may become a late entry bombshell.
But fans are delighted with her new romance, with one writing on her latest post: “So glad you found someone”
“Awww love this for you,” wrote a second, while a third called them “cuties”.
When Mal entered Love Island last year, she arrived as a bombshell on day 16 of the show.
She coupled up with eventual winner Sammy Root, but their romance was short-lived when she was dumped from the villa after a public vote.
