Love Island’s Paige Turley and Finn Tapp walk in Manchester

Their romance has been going from strength to strength since winning the Winter edition of Love Island in January.

And Paige Turley, 22, and Finn Tapp, 20, looked every inch the happy couple as they enjoyed lunch together in Manchester on Thursday.

The reality TV stars appeared to be in good spirits as they walked hand in hand and shared some giggles during their date.

Paige looked sensational in a black midi dress which boasted a thigh-high split to give a peak at the star’s toned physique.

She kept her accessories to a minimum, opting for a chic belt and a pair of round sunglasses as well as toting a large Christian Dior designer handbag. 

Finn kept things casual for their outing and donned a white t-shirt with some pale pink shorts and flip-flops.

In January, Paige and Finn became the first ever winners of the Winter edition of Love Island and have since moved in together in Manchester.

But Finn recently admitted he had multiple ‘tiffs’ with producers in relation to how his behaviour in Casa Amor was portrayed.

The footballer also revealed that his ‘weird’ first date with singer Paige was filmed in silence while another first date was filmed alongside them. 

Speaking to Raj & Pilar on BBC Radio 1’s The Reality Tea Podcast he said: ‘I didn’t really think about the cameras and everything until I got on that date. And then that’s when you’re like, whoa, like that was weird. 

‘Cause there were two dates going on, so I think obviously that Connagh G, he was doing a date at the same time.

‘So with the way the cameras and the recording is, they would shoot sort of like one date whilst you had to sort of sit in silence because obviously they could only capture one date.

‘So like my first meeting with Paige, we just sort of sat in silence. Staring at each other. Like we were just sat there and I was like trying to like graft Paige, but I couldn’t. I was just stood there. I was sat there. I was just like in silence.

‘So we just, we just sat. Yeah, I was, I was. I was like, what do I say to her? What do I compliment? Compliment this and I’ll do that.’

Since leaving the Villa things have been looking up for Paige’s music career too, with her recently branding the release of her debut single – a cover of the Artful Dodger classic Movin’ Too Fast – ‘a total dream come true.’

The singer, who previously dated Grammy-nominated artist Lewis Capaldi, 23, has collaborated with The House & Garage Orchestra and New State Records for the track, which was released on 17 July.  

Speaking about the exciting news, Paige said: ‘During lockdown the opportunity to release one of my favourite house tracks with a 36-piece instrument arrangement was a total dream come true.’
