Many of the Love Island 2020 contestants have famous links this year.

There's Sophie Piper, who is the younger sister of Rochelle Humes, Mike Boateng, who's older brother Samuel Boateng was on The Apprentice and Eve Gale also got a cheeky DM from Kylie Jenner's ex Tyga.

But a stand out famous link is obviously Paige Turley's, who's ex-boyfriend is Lewis Capaldi.

However, it's now been revealed Lewis isn't Paige's only famous ex, as she was "dating" singer and X Factor star Garry Greig on and off for several years until they split in April 2019.

It's also been reported Garry is good friends with Lewis. Awks.

Love Island: Lewis Capaldi’s ex Paige Turley auditioned for BGT and it's icon

Garry first applied for the X Factor back in 2010, then re-auditioned in 2016, getting through to bootcamp before being given the axe.

And while he has just completed a headline tour around the country, his pal Lewis has pipped him to the post, by getting a No1 single with Someone You Loved, as well as a No1 album both here in the UK and the US.

Lewis has admitted the song was inspired by Paige, who he split with in 2016.

Lewis said, “I met a lady. She was very nice. I loved her. I loved the look of her and I loved how she spoke.

“We dated for a year and a half, then she left me. Then I wrote an album about it and I still think about it every day.”
