Love Island 2020 Islander Paige Turley has opened up about her relationship with No1 singer Lewis Capaldi.

The pair started dating in 2014 after Paige met Lewis at college in Motherwell.

Talking about her famous ex in an interview with the team at Love Island before she flew to South Africa, the 22-year-old said, "Lewis Capaldi is my ex boyfriend."

"We went out when we were younger, I was about 17 or 18. We were together for about a year. It ended really amicably and we’re still pals."

And while she says they're still friends, Lewis has previously admitted that he has thought about her EVERY SINGLE DAY after their split.

He has since gone on to say Paige inspired his No1 single Someone You Loved and his No1 album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent.

“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.”

But with Paige now appearing on the show, it looks like Lewis isn't going to be able to escape his ex anytime soon, as everyone will most likely be talking about their relationship even more.
