Love Island’s Matilda dating Towie star after split with Sean – as fans spot ‘giveaway clue’ on Instagram
LOVE Island bombshell Matilda Draper has left fans convinced she’s dating a huge TOWIE star after they spotted a social media “clue.”
It comes after her split with ITV2 show partner Sean Stone in August.
Despite being a late entry to Love Island‘s summer instalment, Matilda proved hugely popular with viewers – who were then left stunned after she was accused of dumping the sweet seller by text shortly after filming wrapped.
Now the brunette recruitment consultant appears to have moved on with ITVBe hunk Roman Hackett, 22 – and the sign comes in her pair of stylish trousers.
Model Roman captured the brightly-printed garment on his Instagram page – and internet sleuths were quick to match it up to Beckenham-born Matilda’s attire.
Dressed all in black, he captured the bottom half of his body with someone else’s as the pair enjoyed a cuddle in the street.
Yet, later in the day, Matilda gave the game away as she posted an Instagram Stories snap showing her posing in her “fave trousers ever.”
The eye-catching garment features text in cartoon letting across the front of the stitched multi-coloured panels.
Fringed sides and hemline adds to the edgy nature of the trousers, which she paired with a plain black vest and puffa jacket.
Her tops were exactly the same as those captured in Roman’s snap – leading many to claim they are an item.
The Sun has gone to Roman’s rep for comment.
ALL CHANGE
Sean and Matilda split in August amid suggestions their relationship was a showmance.
Sharing the news in a statement, Matilda took to social media and wrote: “Just wanted to come on here to tell you guys that Sean and I have decided to part ways.
“We are still good friends & I’m so grateful to have shared such an incredible experience with him.”
She continued: “We appreciate all of your support throughout our time together and all the love you have shown us.”
Matilda finished the statement with “love you all,” followed by a heart emoji.
