Fans were left shocked by the footage of Haris’ street brawl

The boxer, 21, was seen for the first time as he landed at Heathrow airport on Friday.

The reality star was seen on his phone while looking at duty free items in the shops at the airport.

The Doncaster lad opted for comfort during his 11 hour flight from South Africa.

He wore a classic white t-shirt, grey cargos and a pair of white trainers.

Harris was seen arriving with Islander Anna-May Robey who dressed down for the long flight, they were also accompanied by a chaperone.

He was seen pushing a luggage trolley with three suitcases piled on top of each other – including his personalised Love Island case.

The star appeared to keep a low profile as he headed for the exit.

Speaking after leaving in a planned eviction, Haris has now defended his actions in the tape.

He said: “I’m devastated that this video has been seen, it’s not a reflection of my character.

“I’m not someone that goes looking for fights and I didn’t want to be in that situation. This was a heat of the moment thing. 

“The video doesn’t show everything that happened. Afterwards we met up and we cleared the air; we’ve shaken hands and we get along now. 

“It’s not something that would happen again.”

The footage, revealed by The Celeb Report, shows the Love Island star involved in a brutal fight.

In the video Haris is seen punching a man before following him and knocking him down with a second swipe.

After the clip was shared with The Celeb Report, a friend said they were shocked to learn Haris had been accepted onto the hit ITV2 show.

They said: “We were all surprised when we heard Haris was going on Love Island.

“He’s got quite a bit of a temper on him and if someone says something he’s more than prepared to have a fight.

“He’s got an advantage being a boxer and he knows he can cause damage because he trains four times a week.”

Just days into his Love Island journey Haris was involved in a heated bust up with Shaq following a game of ping pong.

Shaq branded Haris a “s***-stirrer” after he asked bombshell David Salako if he enjoyed his snog with Shaq’s missus Tanya Manhenga.

Fresh from the villa, Haris commented: “We’re friends. I knew 100 per cent nothing would have come from that disagreement and we would hug it out.

“I said sorry for my part and he said the same and that’s it. We were the first two in and we got along after that as normal.

“I’ll miss the memories, waking up in the villa, being around people you’ve never met before and getting to form strong connections with them.”

Haris had begun to form a connection with ring girl Olivia Hawkins but was dumped from the villa by bombshells Jessie Wynter and Aaron Waters. 

Haris added: “It was hard for them to make that decision!

“I was just getting to know Olivia a bit more,, it was only just getting good! 

“From the get-go me and her had mutual attraction to each other. 

“When we coupled up I felt we were getting closer than we were at the start.”

Haris was dumped in the eviction alongside Anna-May Robey.
