Sound the alarms, as Love Island's Jessica Spencer has spilled tea on her new boyfriend.

It turns out the Love Island 2024 star already knew her boyfriend before she went into the Casa Amor villa which means, before she even met Ayo Odukoya.

The Casa Amor bombshell - who made it to the final - recently hard launched her relationship with TOWIE's Braydon Hackett. FYI if you don't know, Braydon appeared on TOWIE back in 2021 alongside his cousin Roman, who is still on the show.

Anyway, Jessica has now opened up about how they first met and it turns out they've known each other for quite some time.

'I feel like this is going to cause controversy but me and Bray actually knew each other before. We were friends and we knew each other because we worked for the same company, different offices but the same company.

'I was with my ex when I knew him, he had a girlfriend as well so it was friends. I'd see him at events and stuff but then one day we just weren't friends and now we're here,' she said on the Not My Bagg podcast.

She added, 'We were just friends [before] we only ever really spoke when we saw each other at events and we were both with other people but it was very organic.'

Jess wouldn't be the first Islander to date someone from her past, in fact she's in pretty good company.

Olivia Attwood reunited with ex Bradley Dack after splitting from Chris Hughes and now they're happily married.

And Love Island 2023 star Tanyel Revan - who was on the winter season - is now engaged to someone she knew before the villa.

Opening up about her fiancé she told The Sun, 'I actually knew my boyfriend prior to Love Island but nothing really hit off at the time.

'We were really, really young and this was many years back and we hadn’t spoken for a few years and then when I came out of the villa I bumped into him on a night out in central London.

'We got talking and it just went from there. It’s like it all happened for a reason.'
