Love Island star George Knight has been reunited with his villa ex just days after he left the show.
The 28-year-old footballer entered the series alongside Yasmin Hadlow on day two, but unexpectedly quit after just six days on the island.
While details of his exit were kept private at the time, George has since revealed that he received a phone call from home that triggered his decision to leave. He has explained that a family member had a health concern for which he felt the need to fly home.
Before saying goodbye to the villa, the Winchester lad explored a romantic connection with the OG Islander Robyn Langton. He even invited the Liverpool DJ to the Hideaway within 24 hours of meeting her, but she declined.
Robyn has now been evicted from the villa after she was left single following the arrival of new bombshells Simba Kudiyiwa and Tommy Murphy.
The ITV star has wasted no time getting back to her villa ex. George recently shared a clip of the duo’s reunion, where the pair excitedly ran into each other’s arms.
