Olivia and Alex Bowen have been living the absolute dream since they came second on Love Island 2016. The couple, who got engaged a few months after leaving the villa, tied the knot in September this year in Olivia's hometown of Essex with plenty of their co-stars in attendance.

However, despite the fact that they've only been married two months, the couple are already talking about expanding their family - and having a baby together.

In an interview with the Mirror, Olivia - who is now officially going by Olivia Bowen - revealed that Alex is VERY broody and is incredibly keen to start making babies - and that she's having to be the one to rein him in.

She said, "He really wants a little boy. He would literally have a child now but there's too much we've got to do so I'm putting my foot down. It's on our radar but we aren't planning on it any time soon."
