A fair few legends have been born out of Love Island 2024. Of course, we have winners Mimii Tafara and Josh Oyinsan, but HOW could we forget the likes of Samantha Kenny, Uma Jammeh and, of course, Harriett Blackmore and her man (thanks to All Stars 2025), Ronnie Vint.
Others, of course, have gone down in infamy - *cough cough Joey Essex cough cough*
Ronnie left the Love Island 2024 villa hand-in-hand with fellow OG Harriett, but the couple only managed a few weeks IRL before calling it quits, after cheating allegations started to doing the rounds. Several months later he strutted into the All Stars 2025 villa as an OG, and a few days later his ex Harriett walked in.
Well manifested, people, because Ronnie and Harriett reconnected in the villa and left hand-in-hand just short of the final (okay, your manifestation could've worked a little better). And if you're wondering whether they're still together, they sure – in fact, they popped into heat Towers for a catch-up shortly after landing back in the UK.
We have to say, Ronnie has come a long way in the last few months. Here's everything you need to know about the Love Island bad boy turned boyfriend.
Who is Ronnie Vint?
Ronnie is a semi-professional footballer turned reality star. He found fame on Love Island 2024 and recently returned to the show for All Stars 2025.
What happened to Ronnie Vint on Love Island: All Stars 2025?
Ronnie entered the villa in early January 2025 as an OG and immediately hit it off with TOWIE's Elma Pazar. Within a matter of days 'Turbo' Ronnie was snogging her best mate Kaz Crossley in the secret garden. While Elma and Ronnie tried to move past it wasn't meant to be; in fact, it pretty much dissipated the moment Harriett entered as a bombshell on day 11.
From that moment the couple grew closer and closer and decided to give things another go. The couple were eventually dumped from the Island at the hands of ex-Islanders just ahead of the final on day 34.
Are Ronnie Vint and Harriett Blackmore still together?
Yep. They reconnected in the All Stars villa and are still together IRL. In fact, last time we checked in with Ronnie he was planning to ask Harriett to be his girlfriend any day now.
Why did Ronnie Vint and Harriett Blackmore split up in 2024?
In July 2024, The Sun reported that Ronnie was spotted with a 21-year-old teacher after a night out in Milton Keynes around the time of the Love Island final.
A source told the publication, 'Ronnie was in very high spirits and spent the night buying one girl champagne before they were seen leaving together.'
Another source added, 'The girl couldn't believe it was Ronnie so soon after the show.
'He didn't mention Harriett once and was acting like a single man so everyone assumed they had split up.
'She immediately told all her friends - it's not every day a Love Island star shows you attention.'
The couple stayed together after that drama, but eventually called in quits in September 2024.
Who did Ronnie couple up with on Love Island 2024?
It's safe to say Turbo Ronnie didn't do a Ciaran Davies on the show; Ronnie's head TURNED in the villa.
He began his journey coupled up with Jess White; while the pair had a spark, Jess felt like Ronnie's attention wasn't firmly fixated on her, as he was also flirting up a storm with Harriett. Ronnie and Harriett coupled up on day 11, and then his head turned again when bombshell Tiffany Leighton entered the game. Ronnie and Tiffany coupled up on day 16, but Ronnie went grovelling back to Harriett when Tiffany admitted to not feeling a sexual spark.
The couple were dumped from the villa on day 26.
How does Ronnie Vint know Olivia Attwood?
Not only does Turbo know Love Island 2017 queen Olivia Attwood, but he played the role of best man at her wedding – he's even been on her podcast So Wrong It's Right since finding fame in the villa.
It turns out Ronnie was Liv's husband Bradley Dack's best man when the couple tied the knot in June last year.
Taking to her Instagram shortly after Ronnie's promo pic hit socials, Olivia wrote, 'Our @ronnievint is going into the villa!!!!! 🥹🥹🤗 Ron was best man at our wedding and he's literally like a brother to me - you guys are going to love him!! I know it it 🩵.'
Upon entering the Love Island villa, Ronnie revealed, 'Bradley Dack is my best friend and he and Olivia are a big part of my life. I call Olivia my big little sister, she always looks out for me.'
Olivia and Bradley video called Ronnie towards the end of his All Stars experience, where he told them both he plans to make Harriett his girlfriend.
