Love Island’s Adam Maxted and Liberty Poole may not have found love in the All Stars villa earlier this year, but they sparked rumours they’d secretly coupled up in the outside world last month.
Adam and Liberty were seen leaving fellow Islander Molly Smith’s Boohoo launch party in Manchester at the end of March before reportedly heading back to Adam’s flat, with Liberty being pictured in same the clothes the following morning.
We haven’t heard any more on their potential romance since then, but Adam’s finally shared an update about the situation and admitted he’s “really attracted” to the Love Island 2021 icon.
“Me and Liberty get on really good. I think she is such a genuine girl, really authentic, wears her heart on herself, if you watch her content, you know she is all about being vulnerable, saying things how they are and those are all really admirable qualities in someone,” Adam gushed about his All Stars co-star.
“I am obviously really physically attracted to her as well.”
Adam went on to say that he’s in the process of planning a date with Liberty but their busy schedules and the long distance between their Manchester and Birmingham homes is getting in the way.
“We have been talking about it, but I am just very busy getting settled in Manchester, working on things and I know she is busy in Birmingham with her own life,” he told The Sun.
“There is definitely an attraction there but it’s maybe just not the right time to get into something serious. We probably will date if we keep the communication, we’ve been chatting a couple of times a week, but we are both just busy.”
Shortly after their night out, an onlooker revealed Liberty and Adam were getting on "like a house on fire" after "flirting" the night away.
The potential new romance comes just weeks after Adam split from Arabella Chi after five weeks. At the time, reports claimed the pair split due to their busy work schedules.
