Love Island's Aaron Francis is secretly related to Made In Chelsea star

Love Island contestant Aaron Francis's cousin might look familiar to fans, that is because he is Made In Chelsea star, Hugo Taylor, it has been revealed.

The 24 year old had two ladies step forward for him in the opening coupling but he decided to go with Instagram influencer, Shannon Singh.

However, this was short lived with late arrival, Chloe, choosing to couple up with Aaron, leaving Shannon single and dumped from the villa in a shocking twist.

With all the drama the VIP events host from London said he can at least turn to his cousin for advice if fame gets difficult.

Aaron told the Daily Star : "Hugo is my cousin. I haven't seen him in a while. We aren't that close. But if I ever wanted to ask him for advice, I could. I'm quite close to his dad, too."

He added: "Being related to Hugo and seeing what life is like for him means I can gauge what it is like to be on a TV show," he added.

Hugo first appeared on E4's reality show back in 2011 as one of the original cast members.

He stayed on the show for two further series before quitting a year later.

Since then he starred on shows from Celebrity Wedding Planner to I'm A Celebrity.

Now, Hugo is the co-founder of sunglasses brand Taylor Morris.
