Love Island Finn's 6-hour race against time to lock down with Paige Turley

Love Island winner Finn Tapp has lifted the lid on spending isolation with his girlfriend Paige Turley.

The former footballer hunk made a solo six-hour drive to his beau's home in Scotland after lockdown was announced by PM Boris Johnson on March 23.

Doting boyfriend Finn, 22, made the big move in a bid to stay with Scottish beauty Paige, also 22, out of fear they wouldn't be able to see each other as the crisis worsens.

The loved-up pair were forced apart when they both moved back home - with Paige in West Lothian and Finn in Milton Keynes.

Finn, who is now living out of a suitcase, detailed the whole journey on his new YouTube channel.

He said: "So I made the six-hour drive up to Scotland. It was almost a given that something like this isolation period was going to happen.

"I made the decision to drive up to Scotland so that if it happened, I could be isolating with Paige."

The inseparable pair are now living together in Paige's family home.

Finn admitted they were getting on very well, as he said they are used to being together after spending every day together in the villa.

He continued: "I wanted to isolate with Paige - obviously we are quite used to it being isolated in the villa in South Africa at the start of the year, though obviously I don't have the pool or the views here."

Finn hoped his sweet gesture had made his girlfriend happy, and revealed they'd "find it hard" to distance themselves from each other amid the pandemic.

It seems the sweet pair have been enjoying cuddles and quality time together after their long-awaited reunion.

They've been getting their daily exercise in during the lockdown, as Paige posted a sexy snap while out on a walk with her beau.

The hunk added: "It's great to be with Paige. Obviously we're so used to it so it would be quite difficult to be away from each other for so long. And I think she likes that I'm here. I hope that she's happy."
