Love Island Hugo Hammond's Liverpool link after Concert Square picture emerges

Love Island Hugo Hammond's link to Liverpool has been revealed after a picture from Concert Square emerged.

Hugo, 24, is a PE teacher from Hampshire and has also previously played cricket for England PD, the national physical disability cricket team.

However, it has been revealed Hugo is a big Liverpool fan.

In 2019, Hugo posted a picture of himself with two cocktails in Concert Square.

He captioned the post: " Liverpool #UpTheReds #TalkAbout6", in reference to the Reds' six UEFA Champions League and European Cup wins.

After being single for a while, and finding it hard to get back into dating under Covid-19 restrictions, Hugo was hoping to use his time in the Love Island villa to turn his luck around.

However, the teacher's search for love has proved fruitless.

Sunday's episode saw Hugo ask Chloe Burrows whether she thinks their relationship could go anywhere.

However, she rebuffed his approach, saying they are "too close" as friends to have a romantic relationship.

Toby Aromolaran also criticised Hugo during the programme over his recoupling speech earlier in the week.

Toby ditched Chloe during the recoupling in favour of Abigail Rawlings, before she was saved by Hugo, who said she "doesn't deserve" the treatment she had.

Toby criticised Hugo in Friday's episode, telling him: "That's not cool bro. I am shocked, that is s*** from you.

"I've asked you your opinions and I am not angry about your opinions. Your opinion is completely valid. The fact is the way you went about it."

Hugo responded: "I still consider you family and I hope that we can get past this."

Toby told Hugo he feels "betrayed", adding: "You acted like I went out of my way and purposely wanted to hurt the girl."

Sunday's episode also saw it announced new arrivals would be coming to the villa as Casa Amor begins.

Love Island continues on ITV2 and ITV Hub at 9pm.
