Scott Thomas Reveals Intimate London Spa Retreat with New Girlfriend Lauren Kingsman
Love Island star Scott Thomas offered fans a glimpse into his romantic London weekend with dancer girlfriend Lauren Kingsman via Instagram on Monday. The 37-year-old reality television personality appeared more enamoured than ever as the couple enjoyed quality time together in the capital city.
Luxury Spa Day and Chilly Plunge
The new couple, believed to have been dating since the end of last year, indulged in a lavish spa day where they stripped down to swimwear for an invigorating cold plunge. In a short video clip, Scott was seen tipping a bucket of ice-cold water over his head, while Lauren looked stunning in a black bikini before following suit.
The professional dancer showcased her toned physique in the two-piece swimsuit as they also relaxed in a sauna before both climbing into a large ice bath together. Scott captioned the post simply with 'Weekends in London', alongside images of their opulent hotel accommodation.
Family Approval and Fast-Moving Romance
Sources reveal that Scott introduced Lauren to his family on New Year's Eve, with the romance reportedly progressing 'really well'. The reality star, who previously struggled to find love during his appearance on Love Island All Stars, has received enthusiastic approval from his family members.
His mother Gail is said to be particularly delighted that her son has met someone special. An insider disclosed to The Sun that although Scott and Lauren have only been dating for a few months, their relationship has developed rapidly.
'It's been a long time since Scott has been like this with a girl,' the source explained. 'He's already introduced Lauren to his family and she spent New Year's Eve with them. His brothers have given the relationship the thumbs up and fully approve of his new partner.'
Close Family Connections and Long-Distance Considerations
Lauren has reportedly become close with Scott's mother and sister-in-law Lucy, seamlessly integrating into the Thomas family dynamic. The couple have already enjoyed holidays together despite currently maintaining a long-distance arrangement, with Scott residing in Manchester and Lauren living in southern England.
In January, Scott hinted at his new relationship during his At Home With The Thomas Bros podcast, stating: 'It's going really well, can't lie. But we're still dating, I don't want to jinx anything but it's like I've manifested this girl. Everything that she is is everything that I was visualising.'
New Year's Celebration and Brother's Endorsement
The pair celebrated the New Year together at a Manchester party attended by Scott's family. His brother Ryan recalled the romantic moment: 'I was like, 'Where is Scott?' He was like, 'I just wanted to spend it with her and have a first kiss going into the new year'. It was so cute.'
Ryan expressed his approval of the relationship, adding: 'I like her, you know when you get a good vibe from someone, I like her. I was quite pleasantly surprised.' The former Coronation Street actor even danced with Lauren at the celebration, with Scott noting her captivating presence.
Relationship History and Love Island Background
Scott's last public relationship was with fellow Love Island contestant Kady McDermott, from whom he separated in 2017. He previously mentioned being in an on-again, off-again relationship for eighteen months until mid-2024.
The television personality first appeared on the second series of Love Island in 2016 before returning for the All Stars edition in 2025. Daily Mail has reached out to Scott Thomas's representatives for additional comment regarding his new romance with Lauren Kingsman.
