Is it just us that’s struggling to keep up with Love Island star Olivia Hawkins’ love life? She appeared on All Stars earlier this year and coupled up with Marcel Somerville, although they were swiftly dumped from the villa before going their separate ways in the outside world.

Liv then signed up for Celebs Go Dating, which is set to air on E4 later this year, and was spotted getting cosy with her co-star Louis Russell (of Too Hot to Handle fame).

However, she’s now been linked to another Netflix star and spoiler alert: he’s hot Hot HOT.

According to reports, Liv has been getting to know Kelechi ‘Kelz’ Dyke – a boxer who appeared on the first series of Too Hot to Handle back in 2020 – on a series of dates.

‘Liv was linked to fellow Celebs Go Dating co-star Louis Russell when production on the series first started. But since then she’s been on a series of dates with boxer Kelechi ‘Kelz’ Dyke, which have been filmed for the show,’ a source told The Sun.

‘Netflix fans will know him from Too Hot To Handle as well, so he is well versed in reality TV.’

They added, ‘But the chemistry between him and Liv is genuine and they are really into each other.

‘Watch this space.’

Olivia’s representatives have been contacted for comment.

Liv's latest romance comes after she dropped a major hint she was getting to know her Celebs Go Dating co-star Louis, who previously appeared on series five and six of Too Hot to Handle.

Back in April, he commented on one of her grid posts with the classic line, 'Can I pull you for a chat?' She replied with, '@louis_russell ready when you are,' and clearly that chat went well, as they were later pictured sharing a poolside snog while filming in Ibiza.

However, it appears things didn't work out between them as Liv is now dating Kelechi. We can't wait to see all the drama play out when Celebs Go Dating airs later this year.
