Love Island’s Ellie Brown and Michael Griffiths are now dating

Love Island season four and five unite.

You'll be surprised to hear that Love Island's Ellie Brown is now dating 2019 villa hunk, Michael Griffiths. The stars from the 2018 and 2019 series met while filming Ex on the Beach earlier this year and now, they're apparently an item. According to a source who spoke to the Mail Online, the pair got on like "a house on fire" and just couldn't conceal their relationship until after the show had aired.

"They were supposed to keep the relationship under wraps until the show had aired of course, but it seems they just couldn't keep quiet. They both know what it's like to be caught up in the drama of a big reality TV show and they really bonded during their time on the programme," the source continued.

Michael had previously teased that he was dating one of his MTV co-stars and so, it looks like it's none other than Ellie Brown. At the time he mentioned that the girl in question helped him to open up and so, we can't wait to see his play out once the series airs. During their times on Love Island, Michael was with winner Amber Rose Gill before leaving her in the Casa Amor fiasco for Joanna Chimonides, giving him the "villain" title.
