Ahead of Monday’s final Love Island instalment for 2023, Tom’s mum Maxine has spoken out on her feelings.
Although she admitted she had “loved” tuning in for his antics – one episode proved too much.
Maxine told ITV of her son: “We’ve loved watching him and not missed a night – all of us couldn’t wait for 9pm!
“Samie seems like a lovely girl and we are all looking forward to meeting her and getting to know her more. I just hope that she likes football!”
Yet when quizzed about if their antics became too much, leaving her unable to watch, Maxine agreed.
She added: “When he was in the hideout with handcuffs on..!”
Meanwhile, she is convinced the pair will go the distance.
Maxine suggested Tom could re-locate from his hime up north playing for Macclesfield FC and said: “Potentially – unless he can convince Samie to move up North.
“As long as he is happy we are happy. I can’t wait for him to come home and hear his laughter.
“We will all be happy whatever the outcome in the final.
“He’s done amazing and we’ve loved every minute.”
This week, Tom and Samie enjoyed a lavish final date where he whisked her around in a Ferrari.
Getting misty-eyed, Tom told Samie: “This feels like a dream doesn’t it?”
Dressed in a white shirt and cream chinos, he helped his girlfriend out of the car before telling her there wasn’t another girl he would rather be with.
The couple’s relationship hit the rocks after Tom was seen kissing and cuddling Lydia in bed while Samie was in Casa Amor.
However they managed to put it behind them them and have seemed strong ever since.
She said watching Tom’s time in the Hideaway with Samie was too much
