TWO former Love Islanders have sparked romance rumours after they were spotted getting flirty on a night out in Manchester.
Mary Bedford, who rose to fame this summer on the ITV2 dating show, was seen enjoying an evening with Scott Thomas, who was an islander 2016.
Mary, 22, and Scott, 33, were sat next to each other at the Primark Christmas party at swanky restaurant The Ivy where they were spotted laughing and joking.
The reality TV star documented her evening on Instagram, showing her seat at the table jam-packed with some of the UK’s hottest influencers.
She filmed and teased the ITV alum as he ate pieces of salmon from a sharer plate, following him with the camera as he smiled wide.
“Bon appetite,” Scott could be heard telling her as she captioned the video alongside a series of laughing faces: “Who eats sushi with a fork?”
Scott kept it casual for the evening out in a black turtleneck, accessorising with a silver and gold watch, whilst Mary dressed up for the occasion.
She was photographed wearing brown leather trousers and a tight-fitting corset-style top – keeping warm with a teddy-lined cream and brown jacket.
It comes shortly after Mary moved into a swanky apartment in Manchester after moving out of her mum and dad’s home.
The star revealed that her parents helped her move into the new flat, and admitted she felt like it was “the start of a new chapter” in a YouTube video.
Mary revealed her mum and dad loved the place, saying: “When my dad came today, he hadn’t seen it and he said it’s literally like a hotel.”
The model, from Wakefield, is also an Instagram Influencer and boasts 771,000 followers, which has been boosted massively while being on Love Island.
Mary joined the show at the end of July 2021 as one of the Casa Amor bombshells.
Mary hadn’t had much luck in the villa and was initially coupled up with Toby Aromolaran, who ditched her for Chloe Burrows.
She also used to date Chris Hughes, who took part in the third season of Love Island and came third with then-girlfriend Olivia Attwood.
