Former Love Island champion Liam Reardon has reportedly found new romance with a stunning law student, just as his ex-partner and fellow winner Millie Court prepares to re-enter the famous villa for the All Stars edition.
A New Chapter for the Personal Trainer
The personal trainer, who won the 2021 series with Millie, is said to be dating 21-year-old law student Lara Grace from South Wales. The pair are reported to have grown close over the Christmas period, enjoying a string of dates.
According to sources, they were spotted looking cosy and "inseparable all evening" at Caldicot Football Club, where they were laughing, chatting and appeared very comfortable together. It is believed their romance began approximately two months ago.
Liam seems to have made a positive impression on Lara's family already. Reports indicate her mother was present as the couple enjoyed festive drinks with friends. The pair also follow each other on Instagram, adding fuel to the dating rumours.
Millie's All Stars Journey and Reflections
Meanwhile, Liam's ex, Millie Court, is gearing up to enter the All Stars villa next week. The pair, who split last year after an on-and-off relationship, have both moved on with their lives.
Speaking to the press ahead of the All Stars launch, Millie hinted that the long-distance aspect of their relationship proved too difficult. When asked if she would date an international contestant, she firmly stated: "Only if they agree to move to London - I'm not moving!"
Now 29, and turning 30 this year, Millie reflected on her personal growth since her original stint. "I mean I'm 29 now, so I'd say I've definitely matured, grown up a bit," she said. "I won't take as sh** this time... hopefully I won't take any s**t."
Learning from the Past and Looking to the Future
Millie also referenced the infamous Casa Amor incident from her original series, where Liam was unfaithful before they reconciled and went on to win. This experience appears to have shaped her approach to love.
She admitted she is willing to step outside her usual type—tall, brunette men with beards—to find a genuine connection this time. "I think maybe that's not working. So maybe I need to switch it up a little bit," she explained.
Her motivation for returning is clear: she is looking for a lasting partnership. "I'm on the hunt to find my husband and someone who I can have kids with because I don't want another relationship that doesn't work out," Millie stated. "I want to find the one."
The split between the 2021 winners was confirmed last September, with insiders citing the challenges of maintaining a long-distance relationship as a key factor. Now, both are embarking on very different paths in their search for love.
