Love Island star Liam Llewellyn admits he cheated on his ex but ‘learned from it’

New Love Island series contestant Liam Llewellyn opens up about his love life and shares his cheating secret – but then says he now regrets it and has learned a lesson from the ‘once in a lifetime’ betrayal

A Love Island hunk turns up the heat and makes tongues rattling before he struts into the luxury mansion.

Liam Llewellyn is hoping to turn women’s heads like Gemma Owen on the reality TV dating show. But whether they can trust him to be faithful might be another question after he made his bombastic confession about his love life.

The 22-year-old from Cardiff has admitted a three-year relationship has turned his head – and lost his way.

Liam said: “Maybe there was a bit of cheating. It was only the one time and I regret it now. I was young but now I’m different, I learned from that. It wasn’t nice to make someone feel like that. But it changed me, and I wouldn’t do that to anyone again.”

But that doesn’t mean Liam won’t play on the field at the Mallorcan villa.

He said: “Different girls come in and out. I can tell you with certainty that there will be several girls that I find attractive.

“That decision is being made at the moment and which girl suits me best and vice versa. Those are all decisions I have to make on the show.”

Liam said he’s looking for a woman who is “brunette, petite, fun and outgoing” – and he’s not ruling out sex on TV either. He added: “It’s how an outward relationship develops naturally. We all know how it goes.”

Meanwhile, deaf competitor Tasha Ghouri hopes her past of taking on online bullies will inspire other people.

Tasha, who has a cochlear implant, was 14 when she and other school friends were targeted at Thirsk High School in North Yorks. She was told things like, “Go get cancer, you don’t belong here, you’re going to die, go hang yourself, you’re flat-chested, your family is ugly.”

Tasha, 23, helped start a school anti-bullying campaign. She said, “If I share my experience, I hope it inspires other people too.”

Tasha said her implant has helped her find good men so far, adding, “I date people who don’t judge me just because I have a cochlear implant.

“I’m not going to let their negativity affect me because I’m a positive person and I have a positive attitude.”
