Love Island stars and Kate Lawler lead celeb guests at The Hundred cricket competition

Love Island 2022’s Josh Le Grove and Deji Adeniyi, Kate Lawler and TV’s Dr. Ranj were amongst the stars who enjoyed a spot of cricket on Thursday.

Fresh from his split from Lacey Edwards, Deji and his fellow celebrities were special guests in the audience for first double header game of The Hundred cricket competition at the Kia Oval in London.

In the first double header of The Hundred on Thursday, the Oval Invincibles women’s team in action against Northern Superchargers for the first time in this year’s competition.

Members of the Oval Invincibles squad, Emily Windsor and Aylish Cranstone, took time to greet a number of the attendees ahead of The Hundred’s women’s opening match this evening.

One-time Big Brother winner Kate Lawler looked sensational as she posed alongside the sports stars in London - wearing a white boob tube and striking pair of patterned shorts for the outing.

Love Island stars Josh and Deji also posed for pictures alongside Emily and Aylish - just days after it was revealed Deji and his former Love Island partner Lacey had called it quits on their budding romance.

Deji and Lacey's split comes following the Casa Amor bombshell being accused of sleeping with Coco Lodge, after an explosive Love Island reunion show that aired on Sunday night.

The reality TV stars both appeared on this year’s series of the dating show, and struck up a romance on-screen after instantly hitting it off with one another.

But it appears their love story is over - with sources claiming the pair are "are no longer seeing each other" - with Deji's alleged night with Coco being the "last straw" for Lacey.

They added to The Sun that it was "basically over before it even began" because the two stars failed to even go on a date.

Days before the split, Lacey revealed hopes that Deji would take her on a date but admitted the pair had struggled to spend time together since leaving the villa.

Despite his recent relationship woes, Deji appeared to be on good form on Thursday, as he flashed a huge smile alongside his fellow Islander Josh at the cricket competition.

Also in attendance was TV's Dr. Ranj, who looked chic and stylish in a pair of white shorts and matching T-Shirt - with an eye-catching marmalade-orange unbuttoned satin shirt adding a splash of colour to his outfit.

The aim of the Hundred is to bring cricket to new and broader audiences. The Hundred runs from 3rd August until the final, at Lord’s, on 3rd September.
