Love Island’s Rebecca Gormley discusses romance with Biggs Chris after Michael Griffiths drama

They split briefly last month after she had a drunken sleepover with 2019 Love Island contestant Michael Griffiths.

And Rebecca Gormley has opened up on her now rekindled romance with Biggs Chris following the drama with the fireman, stating that ‘If the shoe was on the other foot, I would get how he feels.’

Speaking on FUBAR Radio on Thursday, the model, 21, also revealed why she and the body repair specialist, 27, are yet to go official with their relationship.

Honest: Rebecca Gormley has opened up on her now rekindled romance with Biggs Chris following the drama with Michael Griffiths, stating that ‘If the shoe was on the other foot, I would get how he feels.’ 

The couple, who met on this year’s winter edition of the show, recently reunited amid rumours she had cheated on him.

Opening up about the drama to Joanna Chimonides and Stephen Leng on Access All Areas, Rebecca confessed: ‘If the shoe was on the other foot I would get how he feels. I get it.’

However, the Newcastle native happily reports that things are better than ever between the pair and that they talk everyday amid the COVID-19 lockdown.

She continued: ‘You know what, I love it! There’s literally not a day that goes by that we don’t chat.

‘We just go on Facetime and literally when we’re doing our day, I’m just there in the background and he’s there in the background and we just chat and laugh about every day.’

However, despite things going well between them, Rebecca said they are yet to make things ‘official’.

Explaining the reasons why, she said: ‘If I’m totally honest, obviously when we came out the villa we’ve spent quite a bit of time together, but I don’t think it’s enough time for us to say, “right let’s make it official”.

‘So the way that I put it across to people is like, we’re more than friends but we just don’t have a label of being in a relationship.

‘Obviously now we’re in isolation I’m not gonna make something official – that’d just be weird.’

Rebecca then went on to explain why her and Biggs were never shown to be close on the show, she added: ‘Me and Biggs just had so much more in common but by this point, I’d already been sort of wifed off with Jordan. So me and Biggs never had that, you know ‘the chat’.

‘I remember being in the villa and you get these nipple stickers and I was pulling them off in bed and we were laughing our heads off about it!

‘When I left I thought, I can’t believe what I’ve done. I really should have spoke to him on that level. And because I didn’t, that’s when I regretted it. 

‘But things happen for a reason I guess and now, me and Biggs we chat every day!’

The pair first sparked relationship rumours after they left the Mallorcan villa in February, following Rebecca’s short fling with administrator Jordan Waobikeze, 24. 

However, their fresh romance was rocked by claims the brunette bombshell cheated on the Scotsman with former firefighter Michael, 28 – a rumour they both deny.  

Biggs previously admitted his love interest ‘f***ed up’ after drunkenly spending the night on Michael’s sofa, but decided to give her a second chance before they eventually drifted apart. 

The Casa Amor star, who had gone home from the night out in question early, was left confused after he woke to find the Geordie beauty absent from their hotel room. 

The reality star said the incident has made him want to take their relationship ‘slower’, especially after receiving messages saying he needed to be ‘careful’ about dating Rebecca.
