Chloe Burrows has been getting all emotional as she gave fans a blow-by-blow account of how her life has changed this year.
The reality star took to Instagram to upload 12 monthly Story snaps from her incredible 2021.
With each one she took fans on a trip back through her year and outlined why the photo means so much to her.
She begun of course with a January upload - starting in her room of her 'rubbish' flat working from home with a snug water bottle. By February, things were on the up for the 25-year-old.
She showed her followers her first Love Island zoom call with ITV bosses before she eventually got the nod.
In April, she was at ITV for a face-to-face meeting with producers.
In June is was a flight-ready Chloe about to board the trip of a lifetime.
She simply captioned July's villa image with Toby Aromolaran 'no comment'!
August was a beaming shot of them both celebrating their second-place finish on the show.
By September she was limbering up in Dubai with November's offering a big one - the blonde and Toby were officially living together.
December was the pair celebrating their first Christmas together, although hey boyfriend looked very unimpressed a cold as she completed the set.
The lovebirds finished as runner-ups, falling shortly behind Millie Court and Liam Reardon.
They say their relationship has gone from strength-to-strength since they left the ITV contest.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror on the annual Pride of Britain Awards red carpet, Chloe said: “We just keep getting better. To be honest, I’m more obsessed with him now that I ever was.
Toby said: “She never fails to make me cry from laughter, and I think that’s the secret to any relationship. We just never get bored of one another and it’s always an adventure with Chloe.”
She also opened up about her love for the ITV2 reality show and said she'd love to do more TV in the future.
She explained: "I’d love to! I loved my experience on Love Island and I’ve always watched reality TV growing up, so it’s something I’d definitely want to do in the future."
Toby says we shouldn't read too much into his girlfriend talking up marriage.
He told the Sun: "Chloe keeps saying it all in her interviews about us getting married. I think she's just having a laugh with it.
"I read the stories with her and I'll say, 'oh you want to marry me, do you?'
"She can get down and propose to me. Forget about the leap year, she can do it at Christmas."
