Love Island's Will and Uma have their first flat

Love Island alumni Wil Anderson and Uma Jammeh are engaged and set to start planning their wedding very soon after the bombshell’s appearance on Aftersun.

The pair first met just last year on the show’s last season, which saw Mimi Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan win, and the couple leaving the show clearly loved-up.

When Uma first entered the villa, she revealed she had never been in a relationship before, and now she has had the fast-track to engagement!

After a rocky Casa Amor, the pair rekindled their connection, up until new bombshell Ruben Collins picked the stunner, causing Will to be dumped.

It is this dumping that made their most famous on-screen moment, with Uma dramatically announcing she was leaving immediately for her love.

She said: “I’m not staying here without him. What am I even gonna do in here without him?”

Jess White even said in response to her decision, “I hope he realises how lucky he is to leave this experience for him. I hope he does”, and clearly he did!

They were also the only ones in the heart rate challenge that raised each other’s heart rate the most, which, if you’ve watched the show, is a rarity!

They left the villa saying they were in love and they have delivered on this promise, letting the nation in to their relationship and now there is sure to be wedding content on the way.

The ex-Islander recently lost his first professional fight against the dance group Diversity’s Jordan Banjo.He entered the villa at 23, but is now 24 years old.

His fiancée is 24 also.

So officially they have been together a whole year now, and the Islander is clearly a man with a plan!

They announced their engagement via Instagram, Uma posting shots of the proposal on the 16th of July, to her almost a million followers.
