Love Island's Zara is already dating another Islander - who she never met in the villa

Love Island fan favourite Zara Deniz Lackenby-Brown has found love with another bombshell.

Viewers of the ITV2 show were in uproar when the model and dancer was booted out the villa in a savage recoupling twist. However, it now seems that Zara may have come out the show at the right time as it looks like things are heating up between her and another bombshell from this series, only they never met during their time on the show.

Zara was originally matched with Ron when she asked him out on a date during the show, before she ended up flirting with Tom. Things, though, quickly turned sour between the pair and she failed to find anyone else in the show.

However, it seems like luck may be on Zara's side now - as bombshell Jordan has revealed the pair have hit it off outside the show.

Speaking on the Love Island: The Morning After podcast, he said: "My usual type wasn't in the villa when I got there. Zara and I have been speaking. She was definitely my top three. We might be meeting up tomorrow, we don't waste time.

"I'm meeting up with some of the other Islanders and then on Saturday at the weekend it's one v one. We're going to go for a drink in London. I think she's stunning, she's beautiful. I like the way she carries herself."

Jordan recalled how he got "butterflies" when he saw she was trying to contact him too.

"As I headed to the DMs, she was typing. She said she'd seen me on AfterSun. I got butterflies when I saw her typing. I can't lie, my brother pulled over the car. We were a bit excited. We'll see, we'll see," he added.

Zara is definitely ready to find a man - and even mooted the idea of returning to the villa in a twist to find The One.

Speaking on Capital Radio about the idea, she said: "I don’t mind going back in for Casa Amor. I'd be up for it. I think it would be great, but that’s up I wouldn’t say no. Not at all. I mean, I need to find a man, don’t I? I want to find a man, but I don’t need a man."

As she departed the show, Zara savagely branded her romance with Tom a "flame that burned quick".

"I genuinely think me and Tom calling it a day was the best thing that we could have done because we weren’t ever actually on the same page. Like a flame, we burned quick, and it was just more physical attraction. The fact we weren’t each other's types intrigued us to try and make a go of it, but ultimately it didn’t work out," she said on her exit.
