Love Island's Millie narrowly escapes embarrassment as her dress almost spills open

As cast members of Love Island, contestants are accustomed to showing off plenty of skin as they pose around the villa in tiny bikinis and the shortest of swim shorts.

For show winner Millie Court, she almost revealed more than she would while wearing swim wear thanks to her daring choice of dress for the live final.

The 24-year-old fashion worker – who won the 2021 Love Island contest alongside 21-year-old Liam Reardon – stunned in a sleeveless, cut out dress which included a thigh high side split.

The blonde reality star looked glowing in the yellow dress as she sat beside Liam as show host Laura Whitmore interviewed them about their time in the villa.

As Liam pulled Millie in for a hug, he almost caused a wardrobe malfunction as the cleavage baring cut out on Millie’s dress was pulled open further than the chic design intended.

Viewers were stunned by Millie’s outfit choice, with one viewer declaring on Twitter : “Millie’s dress [heart eye emoji] I actually need it in my life!!”

While another declared: “Millie’s dress is stunning!”

The final episode of Love Island showed Millie and Liam declaring their love for each other in heartfelt letters to each other which were read out in front of cameras.

And after weeks of dating in the Love Island villa, Liam finally decided to make things official with Millie as he asked her to be his girlfriend – thanks, in part, to show host Laura, who gave some encouragement.

In the final moments of the show, Laura asked: "Well, you've already said the L-word, so boyfriend and girlfriend on the cards? You going to do a Chloe and Toby and get married? I don't think Toby knows that yet."

Millie replied: "I don't know, we definitely will be one day, won't we?"

Liam confessed: "It has been on my mind for a while, so... Will you be my girlfriend?"

Millie quickly said yes and the couple kissed in front of the cameras – and a particularly thrilled Laura.

The show host declared: "I mean, you've already met the family...I didn't think that was going to happen there! I love that I witnessed that. How do you feel?"

Millie replied: “Oh my god. I'm a bit in shock, that was good."

Laura concluded: "On that, Millie and Liam everyone, boyfriend and girlfriend!"

While Liam may had only just asked Millie to be his girlfriend, his own family are now predicting he will move to Essex to be closer to his love.

Speaking on Capital South Wales FM, Liam’s sister Niamh said: "Liam, I don’t think he was ever going to settle in Merthyr anyways, so I think it’s just easier for him to go up closer to Millie.

"He’s got loads of friends around the Essex and London area anyway, so I just think, it’s just easier for him to go.”

Asked if she hopes Millie will visit Liam’s hometown in Wales, Niamh continued: "Yeah I hope so! Millie’s family just seems so down to Earth when I watched the episode the other night.

"I honestly think we’ll all get on like a house on fire so I’m really looking forward to meeting her."
