We don't care what anyone says, last year's Love Island was top tier.

From Joey Essex being the first ever celebrity bombshell and his ex Grace Jackson strutting into the villa to the savage twist where all the dumped Islanders returned and voted out one couple - series 11 will go down in the history books as a classic.

One Islander who started as a Casa Amor bombshell, made it to the final and is still thriving in the limelight is Jessica Spencer and she's only gone red carpet official with her new boyfriend.

And not just any random guy, Jess' new man has already been on TV before. If you've been watching TOWIE for years (who wasn't tbh) you'll recognise Braydon Hackett as Roman Hackett's cousin who starred on the Essex reality show during series 28 back in 2021.

The reality TV couple stepped out together at the Echo Valley premiere and we have to say, what a FIT couple.

While this might be their first red carpet outing together, they recently appeared together on Roman and Matilda Draper's podcast (because they're also dating, cute) and they opened up about their relationship.

'We knew each other from work but we were friends. I feel like we always missed each other, we weren't single at the same time.

'This is why I believe timing is everything because there were so many opportunities that we could have got together but it just wasn't the right time,' she said on the Raw & Reality with Matilda and Roman podcast.

'Then [two months] before I went into the villa, we saw each other at an event. We were both single and it was his birthday so I said 'Let's go do a shot if it's your birthday', so we did a shot at the bar and I was already legless so I told him I was going on Love Island.'

'I was fuming,' Braydon joked.

We all know the rest - Jess and Ayo Odukoya coupled up during Casa, they came fourth but split three months later and that's when Jess and Braydon saw each other again.

The series 11 star explained, 'After the villa we saw each other at an event and then from that night we've been inseparable.

'You know what's funny? That night Bray said to me, 'Are you enjoying being single?' and I was like 'Yeah, I want to be single' because I'd just come out of my Love Island situation. We both didn't want a relationship.'

'That went well,' Braydon joked.
