Former Love Island contestant Layla Al-Momani has sent her fans into a frenzy by announcing she is engaged to be married. The 30-year-old brand managing director, who found fame on the 2023 series of the hit ITV show, shared the exciting news with a clever social media reveal.
A Surprise Instagram Reveal
Layla took to Instagram to break the news, but she made her followers work for the big reveal. She teased her audience by making them scroll to the third picture in a carousel post, where she finally showed off her breathtaking engagement ring. The caption simply read: '3, 2, Surprise!'
The ring itself is a show-stopper, featuring a substantial teardrop and square diamond set elegantly on a gold band. While she proudly displayed the jewellery, Layla has chosen to keep the identity of her fiancé a secret, sparking much speculation amongst her followers.
Well Wishes from Fellow Islanders
The comment section was quickly flooded with congratulations from her reality TV friends and colleagues. Former islander Coco Lodge exclaimed, 'Woooo Love you', while Zara Deniz, who also starred on the show, added, 'Congratulations angel'.
This happy news comes after Layla's previous high-profile relationship with singer Conor Maynard. She had previously claimed that the singer wrote songs about her. Interestingly, Conor himself announced his engagement to his girlfriend, Kitty Bertrand, just a few months prior in September.
Layla's Love Island History
Viewers will remember Layla from her time as a Casa Amor bombshell in the 2023 series. She caused a significant stir in the villa when she lured Will Young away from his partner, Jessie Wynter. This led to a dramatic confrontation when Will had to confess his infidelity to a devastated Jessie upon returning to the main villa.
Despite her very public entry into the spotlight on the dating show, Layla is now opting for a more private approach to her real-life romance, celebrating her engagement while keeping her future husband out of the social media limelight.
